 Hi - I have a system with Windows 2003 SP1, ASP.NET 2.0, IIS 6, but... SQL Server Express 2005.

 

I was hoping to get DNN running on this machine, but because I have SQL Server Express on Windows 2003 it may be that this is not a supported configuration. I am currently getting an error "Timed out while

waiting for Program to Start" when I try to run the install script from IE.

Does anyone know if this configuration will work - or is there likely to be another problem causing this?
 


Thanks,

Richard.

DNN should run fine with the setup you currently have. 

When you get that error message, where is that coming from? From internet explorer itself via some sort of a popup? or is it coming from the web server (inside of an HTML page)?

The error message appears when I first go to IE on the server and type http://localhost/DNN  (I called the folder and virtual Directory DNN).

Thanks,

Richard

Richard, I would start by looking at IIS, can you load http://localhost without any issues?

You might need to check the web server extensions that are enabled in IIS. You might also check the Windows Event Logs to see if there is a more detailed error message?

are you facing initial installation screen - use custom installation mode. if initial installation doesn't show up, there must be an issue with your IIS web site configuration - e.g. missing file permissions.
