I'm at a loss, I've deleted the website 8 times now, and wiped out the tables, procs and functions everytime.  Think I narrowed it down to if I delete the Install and Providers folder I can start a new install without wiping out whole site.

Anyway, if I do the Automated Wizard install it gets to the last step with a textbox and updates and says "undefined...success" and does this forever, I literaly waited 25minutes.

So gave up on that.

Then I try the manual install install.aspx?mode=install...

It runs down the page all green sucess, click on the link and then it sends me back to domain/install folder which then of course gives me directory browsng not allowed.  If I go back to the install.aspx it shows up blank. InstallWizard just sends me back to default which then sends me back to domain/install folder again.

If I go into the PortalAlias table and change domain/install to domain then I get a redirect loop error in FF.

At a loss, not sure how many times I have to try and install to get it working.  Any thoughts?  I'm searching on these forums with no look so far.

Hi Fred, this sounds like a missing configuration either of the IIS web site (did you config default.aspx as default document?) or of file system permissions for the virtual user "Network Service" (or "ASPNET" on WinXP), that has to be granted fuill permission on all files and folders within the installation directory.

Finally got it working but not sure why, and I can reproduce.  Basically, I set the AutoUpdate property in the web.config to false.  Wiped out the SqlProvider folder again and recopied, wiped out the DB again.  I went to domain, and it sent me to install under contruction, I manually went to the InstallWizard.apx and I ran the install by setting it to Auto.  That works.  Seems if I try Custom or if I do it manually it fails everytime.
