I installed 4.8.3 install package on XP Pro running IIS5 and MS SQL Server 2005 and the install went flawless no problems at all. I now am trying to install it on Server 2003 and IIS 6 and did all the steps and settings exactly the same but now it won't go to the install page. It just goes to "Page cannot be found" page. Is there something that has to be configured differently for it to work on Server 2003? I have rechecked all the settings over and over, the permissions on the C:\DotNetNuke folder, etc. and can't find what should be different between installing on XP Pro and Server 2003?

First thing, 2003 will have different permissions, using the Network Service account instead of aspnet

The next thing to do would be to check the extensions in IIS to make sure that asp.net is enabled.

Thanks for posting that link Jeff, that is exactly what I was referring to, and provides the steps to get there.

Thanks for the suggestions. I double checked and ASP v2 wasn't in the list on IIS even though it was installed, just v1.1 was. I was able to put it in and enable it with the help of http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/winsharepointadmin/HA100598511033.aspx#Inst2on2003R2 but that still didn't fix the problem. And ASP.NET was enabled in Application Server under Windows Components. I disabled all the enhanced Server Security as well and still can't get install page to come up. I even browsed to C:\DotNetNuke\website\install\install.aspx and that just brings up a page that says "Server Error in "/" Application" Resource cannot be found. HTTP Error 404. Any other ideas? I keep checking all settings over and over and can't find anything different than how it is setup and is working great on XP?
