Hi,
I am installing DotNetNuke 4.0.2 (source version) on XP (pro) with SQL2005. I have previously installed every version of DNN without major problems. This is a vanilla installation with a new DB. I have tried every istruction and read every article on this version but I just can't get it to install properly. I have:
installed the directory under inetpub given ASPNET god like permissions on the webroot
inherited permissions to children,
specifically checked permissions to Web.config
enabled simple file sharing in XP with full permisions to ASPNET
but whatever I do (and I've tried installing over 20 times with a fresh DB every time) I get the following:

and on trying to load the portal after a failed install I get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error on
PortalId = objPortalAliasInfo.PortalID
I am completely frustrated. I didn't have this problem with 4.0.1 and I've tried it on 2 different machines. I can see the database has been created every time.
PLEASE HELP and rescue my sanity.
