hi all, here is the case

I have made a site using 5.0.1 on my localhost, using slq2005. I upgraded the site to 5.1.1, all are working fine on the localhost.

I want to move the site to a web server IIS 7, with a live ip, and I can't  make it.

Here is what i did. I restored my dbase to the live server (sql2005). I created a new folder to the inetpub folder of the server and copied all my site files in there. I gave full rights to this folder. I edit my web config file so it refferences the new sql server. I go to the IIS manager on the server and I see my folder and I press 'Convert to application'. Then when I press 'Browse', instead of displaying my site, I see a page that says 'DotNetNuke Instalation Wizard - Version 5.01.01'.

What am I doing wrong, or what is the correct way to move my site to a live server (that I can physicaly operate)?

thnx in advance

hi Seb, thnx for replying.

can you be a bit more specific abt what I should do?

I have changed the portal alias directly in the sql table. I must inform you that i already had another site on that machine, ver 5.0.1, that is still working ok.

How exactly must i install dnn in IIS web site root? what file must i use?

could you maybe tell me all steps that i must follow?

thanx once more
