This is my first time trying to install DNN so I'm going to be real explicit here since I haven't a clue what I'm doing wrong.

The location I'm trying to install this to is on the internet on a Bluehost server.  This server's IP is at 69.89.31.225.  The domain is pointing from another DNS, so we've been having hiccups.  So I'm using the temp url which is http://69.89.31.225/~hostusername

The domain should be at www.hpeinc.com.  DNN will be installed at www.hpeinc.com/dnn (http://69.89.31.225/~hostusername/dnn for now)

 

Now, I set up a MySql database in BlueHost's MySql manager.

hostusername_dnn

With a full permitted user of:

hostusername_ryan

hypothetically, let's say the  password is "joomla".

When I go to www.hpeinc.com/dnn/, I'm simply brought to an file browser.

When I go to http://69.89.31.225/~hostusername/dnn/Install/install.aspx?mode%20=Install

I get

<%@ Page language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Explicit="True" Inherits="DotNetNuke.Services.Install.Install" CodeFile="Install.aspx.vb" %>
but bracketed.
 
Here is what I have in web.config, all variables replaced
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005
<add
name="SiteSqlServer"
connectionString="Server=69.89.31.225;Database=hostusername_dnn;uid=hostusername_ryan;pwd=joomla;"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
-->
</connectionStrings>
<appSettings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules -->
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User

Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;"/>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=69.89.31.225;Database=hostusername_dnn;uid=hostusername_ryan;pwd=joomla;"/>
-->
 
What's wrong with this?

DNN doesn't use MySQL.
