Hi there;
First of all sorry if it was an old question. I searched for it but can't manage to find in forum. I unzipped the installation files to the remote server, set the user accounts for the full right, edited the relase.config file and renamed it as web.config, created the database and the user to reach it, but I still can not install DNN. I get this error when I try to reach the URL.  If any one knows about this problem, I would be grateful for the answer. Thanks.

Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>
