Hi everyone this is my first post I hope someone can help me out.

If i install dotnetnuke using SQL express i have no problem at all however we're going to be running a service on another of our servers to update certain records in the dotnetnuke database therefore it would be much easier for us to have it running in SQL 2005.

 

I'm pretty sure i have all my permissions set up correctly in SQL2005 server:

I have setup an sql user called dotnetnuke and created a database called dnn, the dotnetnuke users owns the dnn database and the connection test passes no problem in the install wizard.

 

As i say before it installs no problem into sqlexpress so i'm pretty certain there is something wrong with my sql2005 config, i will happily answer any questions on this one :)

 

The exact error i get is this:

Installing Database - Version 05.00.00...FAILURE ERROR: See C:\Inetpub\sites\[sitename]\Providers\DataProviders\SqlDataProvider\05.00.00.log for more information

The 05.00.00.log file has not been created so there is no extra information to help.

I've tried a few of the latest dnn 5.x versions and they all fail in the same place :(

 

Thankyou for any help!

 

Jack

The first place I would start is by downloading our old documentation package from http://dotnetnuke.codeplex.com/releases/view/21018#DownloadId=53059.  Inside that zip file you should find an Installation guide.  This guide is quite out of date, except for the Database installation section.  Starting on page 6 is a good description of how to configure your SQL server for proper DotNetNuke operation.

Firstly, thankyou so much for the really fast response :) I'm pretty sure that I do exactly what the installation guide says however.. I followed it exactly to the word and... no use :( still exactly the same error, and no log file created

Hi maybe a breakthrough....

Instead of using the wizard I modified the connectionstring in the web.config  and let it run an auto install, as i was expecting i did get a load of errors (and also some random successes) but most importantly a lot of logfiles we're created!!!

 

They all end in this error:

 

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Must declare the scalar variable "@IsScalarFunction".

 

and then the call stack.

 

Hope this helps anyone looking into this :)
