Check your connection strings very carefully - I would guess that you are missing a quote mark (") somewhere.  This is the correct format:

"Data Source=(your server name);Initial Catalog=(your db name);user id=(your db user);password=(your db password);"

Btw, if you start an install and it fails, then delete your database and create it again.  A partly installed database is useless and it is quicker to create a new one than repair the broken one.

You can copy your connection string here if you want, but make sure to hide the username and password with stars, eg user id=****;password=****; - this is for your own security :)

hi  jk

i have dowloaded the install package and follow all instructions in the Easy DotNetNuke installation but when i type

http:\\localhost\mywebsite i got an error message says

An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.  When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

but i don't know how to solve it could u help me?

Hi, this thread has started to get pretty far from the original discussion so I have started a new thread in reply to your server application unavailable problem:
