Hello,

Running Win 7, IIS 7, SQL 2008 Express...

How do enable the website user account "AppPool\DefaultAppPool" on the C:\Dotnetnuke folder?  See text from Readme.txt below.  Thanks!

- the website user account must have Read, Write, and Change Control of the root website directory and subdirectories ( this allows the application to create files/folders and update it’s config files), This account is different depending on the version of the OS/webserver, please see the list below for the correct account
- If using Windows XP Professional - IIS5.1 this is the {Server}\ASPNET User Account. Note: Windows XP can be configured to run using simple security. By default it is turned off in Windows XP Professional when it joins a domain, but if running standalone you will need to disable it to access the more detailed file sharing dialog. See http://duxcw.com/faq/win/xp/simpshare.htm for more details.
- If using Windows 2003 (IIS6), Windows Vista (IIS7) or Windows 2008 (IIS7) this is the NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE User Account.
- If using Windows 2008 R2 (IIS 7.5) or Windows 7 (IIS7.5) this is the IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool User Account

I have tried everything and still cannot connect to the site: I followed the instructions here: http://www.snowball.be/2007/05/23/DNN+And+IIS7+How+To+Get+It+To+Work.aspx I still get nothing. I change the applictaion pool to DefaultAppPool, but that is on Framework 4.0. Does not work, but at least shows an error. I have the login set to my login which always worked on Vista, but seems not to on Win 7. Help me please!!! Lee
