Hi I downloaded DNN 4.8.4 and want to deploy it on winxp, mssql2005 express and vs2005. I did not change anything on web.config. I gave the ASP.NET user permission to the DNN folder. I run the install wizard by pressing Ctrl+F5 It checked the permission are ok, DB can be connected. But the run DB script does not stop and run for an hour. I searched over this forum and found that several same cases and only got replies said it is permission problem. Permission for folder and checked in install wizard, any other permission needs to be done? Other questions: 1. It created a virtual directory "DotNetNuke_Maintenance" on IIS, how can I change its name and the name in VS 2005 "http://localhost/DotNetNuke_Maintenance"? 2. I created a DB named DNN, how can I import the data to it through the Database file under App_Data? Thanks for help.

Here are some tips from me.

First ensure that SQL Server has Latin_1_General_CI_AS as db and server collation

Ensure that Network Service account has full control over source directory.

And ensure that you are using correct authentication mode for SQL server.

If something goes wrong don't hesitate to start over.

About virtual directory, it is very easy to change.

Just browse IIS Manager and delete virtual directory and recreate it and name it anything you want, for example > dev_484

Then go to SQL Server and connect to database and to Portal Alias table, find alias for localhost/Dotnetnuke_maintenance and change it to new alias > localhost /dev_484

Save changes and try to browse website again.

If needed check Visual Studio too and make same changes for virtual directory.

Well, i tried import and export tool for moving content between databases but its better to get ideas from a more experienced user.

Regards.

Dear Sir

Thank you for your great help. I can install it now. But, I want to point out where was the problem that it caused.

First ensure that SQL Server has Latin_1_General_CI_AS as db and server collation - It does not matter, as I used Chinese_CI_AS

Ensure that Network Service account has full control over source directory. - ** It is important. It was installed after enable it.

And ensure that you are using correct authentication mode for SQL server. - I used Windows and SQL authentication

The Database size should be 9,408 KB after successful installation and it should take around 1 min.

Thanks for help.

Thanks for feedback, actually we have problems with database and server collation and it sometimes give us great headache if collation conflict occurs.

Correct one should be:

Ensure that you are using the collation for both server and db, as supported collation for your locale and regional settings.

In Turkey, some of Hosting companies using Turkish_CI_AS and interestingly DNN does not work correctly at those servers.

As far as i know we should checkout SQL Scripts and update them to work with Turkish collations too. Turkish alphabet has some lowercase and uppercase letters as same characters, but in other locales those are identified as different characters, this is the main point of problem > case sensivity

Regards
