Hi,
I am trying to install the lattest dotnetnuke on my XP Pro machine so it will run off IIS and not just the MS VWD built in server.  I am going through the install Wizard.  It comes to the database connectivity test, and it says it can not connect to my database.  I use all the default settings.  Is there a reason it can not see the Database.mdf that comes with the install.
It works great if I run from within VWD.
I've been following the a tutorial I cound on-line: http://adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN4_DevelopmentEnvironment/DNN4DevelopmentEnvironment1.htm  
Is there something they missed?  They say such an error is from the VWD locking up the Database.mdf file, but I've disconnected it and shut down the VWD.

Thank you,
