Hi,

I'm trying to get up and running for the first time.  I have Visual Studio 2005 Professional edition - I just renamed release.config to web.config - didn't need to change any db settings because I used the default database name.  I'm getting a message saying the database is read-only.  Does anyone know what's happening?

Thanks in advance for any help

Error Installing DotNetNuke Current Assembly Version: 04.00.02 ERROR: Could not connect to database specified in connectionString for SqlDataProviderSystem.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Failed to update database "D:\PROGRAMMING\NOTES\VISUAL STUDIO .NET NOTES\DOTNETNUKE\WEBSITE\APP_DATA\DATABASE.MDF" because the database is read-only.

at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlC

...etc.

No, it doesn't say read-only in Explorer (I checked this)

Stry, resetting IIS fixed that error for me. I did have to reset file permissions, though. The app_data subdirectory did not inherit the parent directory's permissions.
