Well after trying the typical install what ended in an endless loop. (it succeeds at the end but i cant click next it just keeps installing then) i tried the auto install and now i get this error: ERROR: Could not connect to database specified in connectionString for SqlDataProvider.

i think something is wrong in here (not sure).

 

<appSettings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=(local);Database=DotNetNuke;uid=;pwd=;"/>
-->
