So this looks like a known issue then. If the log had some information we might be able to determine where it's failing. Interestingly enough if I try to run the site after it fails installing, I get the following. It looks like it thinks it's installed but obviously there are issues with the data. Maybe we can run the scripts after the one that's failing and let it populate the data and finish the install manually? Does anyone know which files are executed after this one?

 

Domain Name localhost/dotnetnuke Does Not Exist In The Database

DotNetNuke supports multiple portals from a single database/codebase. It accomplishes this by converting the URL of the client browser Request to a valid PortalID in the Portals database table. The following steps describe the process:

  1. Web Server Processing
    • When a web server receives a Request from a client browser, it compares the file name extension on the target URL resource to its Application Extension Mappings defined in IIS.
    • Based on the corresponding match, IIS then sends the Request to the defined Executable Path ( aspnet_asapi.dll in the case of ASP.NET Requests ).
    • The aspnet_isapi.dll engine processes the Request in an ordered series of events beginning with Application_BeginRequest.
  2. HttpModule.URLRewrite OnBeginRequest ( UrlRewriteModule.vb )
    • The Request URL is parsed based on the "/" character
    • A Domain Name is constructed using each of the relevant parsed URL segments.

      Examples:

      URL: http://www.domain.com/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com
      URL: http://209.75.24.131/default.aspx = Domain Name: 209.75.24.131
      URL: http://localhost/DotNetNuke/default.aspx = Domain Name: localhost/DotNetNuke
      URL: http://www.domain.com/virtualdirectory/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com/virtualdirectory
      URL: http://www.domain.com/directory/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com/directory
    • Using the Domain Name, the application queries the database ( PortalAlias table - HTTPAlias field ) to locate a matching record.

      Note: If there are multiple URLs which correspond to the same portal then you can add multiple records to the PortalAlias table pointing to the same portal (PortalId).

      Note: If you are installing the application to a remote server you must modify the HTTPAlias field value for the default record in the PortalAlias table according to the rules defined above.

Update:  I went ahead and tried a fresh install using 4.06.02, basically wiped everything except users.  Removed the database I was using, removed the virtual and physical install of 4.08. 

Had to remember to set the asp.net to version 2 and give network service full permissions (just did the entire wwwroot, since its a test server).  Did a custom install instead of automatic, same settings I had used before, scripts all worked fine.

 

Might try 4.08 again later, not sure.

I was able to overcome this particular problem with a fresh install.

Steps:

1. Deleted the MS-SQL database.

2. Removed the virtual website from IIS.

3. Re-ran the installation wizard http://localhost/<website_name>

4. The database scripts ran starting with the earliest verson 4.x - 4.8 - Successfully.

The rest of the wizard configuraton settings ran smoothly.

I believe the original issue started with incorrect permission settings on NETWORK SERVICE account (Read / Write / Change / Modify). This was corrected once I assigned Full Control NTFS permissions on the virtual directory install folder from Explorer.

Technical Specifications: Win2003 Standard SP2, MS-SQL 2005 Enterprise (all latest patches), .IIS6, ASP.NET2.0, DNN4.8

Now I'll start installing all the modules.

Anyone manage to get this working short of a complete reinstall?  I get the same error going from 4.6.2 to 4.7, or from 4.7 to 4.8.

Hi jplumey,

I had this problem too. It took me a long time to solve it. I did the following:
- Created a new clean DB and changed the collation to Latin1_General_CI_AS. I assume that your Servers collation is Latin1_General_BIN. Changing this is a little risky.
- Correct the SqlDataProvider files. I went through the installation several times and edited theses files until it worked.

So if you want me to send you the corrected files please post me your mail adr.

Regards,

Amir
