Hi

Well I've tried install 4.02, both the source versions and the starter kit. Both versions come up with web.config errors. Please note I have the final version of Visual Studio 2005, and I'm running ASP.NET version 2.0 in IIS (I have checked the settings). My environment is Windows 2003 server/IIS6/Windows XP Pro. All my issues seem to be with web.config, please see below.

Any thoughts?

Many thanks!

Alex

My first thought is (server 2003)  "has NETWORK SERVICE been given "full control" over the physical directory within which you have DNN  installed"?

For XP this is the ASPNET (or something similar) user built into the OS that you give 'full control' over the folder containing your DNN install. 

I did this on the server with windows file explorer; opened 'Properties' dialog for the folder and selected the 'Security' tab.

Just a guess...

Your application is running with partial trust somehow. It's a DNN4 + .NET 2.0 issue only to my knowledge.

Here is where you should look for ideas at this point. Sorry I can wave a wand, though I've been lucky with my install to this regard.
