Hello,

I'm trying to install DNN on my localhost, but Microsoft do not provide Visual Web Developer 2005 for download anymore and instead provide VWD 2008 which includes MSSQL Express 2008. After an extensive google search I didn't find it on any other reputable looking websites either.

I went ahead and tried to install DNN using VWD 2008, but in the 'Configure Database Connection' page you only get the option to install on an 'Server 2005 (Express) database' or an 'SQL Server 2000/2005 database'.

I selected 'Server 2005 (Express) database' with the server entered as 'localhost', the filename as 'Database.mdf', with 'Integrated security' checked, with 'Run as db owner' checked, and with the object qualifier entered as 'dnntest_'.

However when I test these settings I get the errors shown below.

So! What should I do now?

Thanks
Craig Allen

From reading other threads I understand that DNN should work with Visual Web Designer 2008 and MSSQL Server 2008 Express, so the errors must be caused by something else.

If you are using SQL Express, you should use "Auto" install instead of "Typical".

Thanks Robert, that was one part of the problem/solution.

The other is that in addition to Visual Web Developer, I needed to install MS SQL Express 2008. I thought that this was installed with VWD, but apparently not. When installing MS SQL Express, choose to install a default instance rather then creating a named instance.
