Help! I am installing 4.5 new on a maximumasp virtuozzo server. I believe the installation "nearly" completed, but I now get this error. Before this error, I was getting a "too small paging file error", but it has been replaced with the mentioned error. I don't know what if anything support has done that corrected the paging file size error.

I deleted the database, and all the Dotnetnuke files and reinstalled. It all works now!

I am a newbie.  I just installed this a couple of hours ago for the first time.  I am getting the same error and I have tried starting over several times and with different selections (typical and auto) going to try the custom one more time.  I tried just deleting the database but that didn't work.

This looks pretty awesome from the demo.  Now, if I can just get it to work!!  Thanks for any help in advance.
