I am installing DNN 04.09.00 on a local computer with Vista Ultimate x64. IIS 7 (with IIS 6 extensions) and SQL Server Express 2005 are installed and funtioning properly. When I browse to the localhost directory to start the installation, I get the following error:

 

 

Server Error in '/DotNetNuke_Local' Application.

Compilation Error

 Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

Compiler Error Message: BC30451: Name 'Config' is not declared.

Source Error:

 
Line 66:         Private Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Line 67: 
Line 68:             If Config.GetSetting("ServerName") = "" Then
Line 69:                 ServerName = Server.MachineName
Line 70:             Else

Source File: C:\DotNetNuke_Local\Website\App_Code\Global.asax.vb    Line: 68

Can anyone shed any light on this for me?

Thanks, Al

You used the source package and don't have a web.config file.

Rename release.config to web.config to get your site up and running.

 Hi Chris,

You hit the nail on the head!  I discovered the problem shortly after I posted and have been waiting for my message to be approved so I could mark it as resolved.  I felt it had to be something related to the database and finally decided to look at web.config which, of course, did not exist.

Thanks for taking the time to reply!

Al
