hi,

for the last 1+ hour i have been looking in the forum for some answer,, also in asp.net forum and google too. ,..but finally m writing my issues here... hope to get some replies ,,coz m really stuck. ;)

:: i recently downloaded the install package version 4.0.7 to my local computer and then installed it on my local computer... however i gave the database details in the config file which was pointing to a ms sql 2000 server at a database server otherthan my local computer..

the installation started and was going smooth, but it did not complete and threw some error...

when i checked the database server,, i saw the tables and stored procedures and views have been created....

NOW: i have uploaded the install package files to my host,, and trying to reinstall from there.... but its not starting installation ther....

i discovered few talbles and stored procedures are missing....

NOW IT WILL TAKE DAYS TO ME IF I DELETE THE TABLES AND STORED PROCEDURES FROM THE DATABASE MANUALLY before reinstall,, so please suggest what to do..

so my question is:

Q1. in a scenario where many tables/stored procedures are present from a previously unsuccessfull installation .. what should i do..

Q2. iam doing it right by direly installing on the remote server... or should i do something locally before deploying at the server..

Q3. if u dont understand or cant reply Q&2,,, can you atleast tell me what is the best way (sql script) to delete multiple storedprocedures (that start with a specific prefix)  efficiently.

thank you (even if you not reply,,(for reading such a long question)

regards

If your install started to screw up around the part
where modules are being installed:

DNN From Scratch after failed installations:
This has been tested on DotNetNuke 04.03.07
----------
1) Make sure your Database is cleaned or *New*
    (Unless you're able to restart IIS, a new
    database with a new name may be necessary)
2) Update web.config with necessary changes
3) FTP OR LOCAL:
REMOVE FROM SERVER (if they exist):
    /App_GlobalResources/Locales.xml
    /bin/DotNetNuke.Modules.*
    /Providers/DataProviders/SqlDataProvider/*.log    (optional)
RE-UPLOAD TO SERVER
    /Install/Module
----------
DNN 4 should now be restored to initial pre-install state.

Make sure you have the correct permissions set or it will screw up again!
Refer to the manual for permissions, if you don't know where it is then
This worked for me:

App_Code          READ/WRITE
bin               READ/WRITE
Config            READ/WRITE
DesktopModules    READ/WRITE/WEB
Portals           READ/WRITE/WEB
images            READ/WRITE/WEB
Install           READ/WRITE/WEB

It sounds as if this is an initial install with no portals built. If that is the case, then I think easiest would be to drop the entire database and recreate it, and then make sure your web.config connect strings are correct, and try again.

If that is not the case, and there is important data in the database besides just the DNN initial install then you have different problems ...
