OK please forgive my post if I ramble a bit. Im new to DNN, but was impressed with the look and feel of the portal. Was planning on using it create a Crystal reports 'dashboard' for reporting at the company I work. Let me detail my experience so far. Using Server 2003, SQL Server 2000, IIS 6.0. First, chose the DNN 4 route. Didn't realize the installation documentation for that package is for an earlier version. Finally, figured out needed ASP 2 -upgraded. Now realized several mdf files hadnt been included with the package so gave up on DNN 4. Backtracked to DNN 3.2.2. This too has been a nightmare.

Server Error in '/DotNetNuke' Application.

Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 57.

Index 43 also seems popular. The errors dont remain the same, I can refresh at different times and get different errors. Anyway enough whining. Has anyone installed DNN with the above config? (Server 2003, SQL Server 2000, IIS 6.0)

Is this error coming from the DNN 3.x or 4.x version you installed?

Hi,

You're probably sorted with that issue by now.

Just to say we have released a dashboard style free dedicated module that displays crystals reports.

You can download it from our website:
