Hi guys, Happy New Year!
I'm aiming to go for a clean install of 4.9.01 on a web hosted remote server, but I'm a little confused by some of the great guides I've read.
The hosting provider is looking after the sql databases etc., so no problems there.
The installation guide from this site (pdf download) seems to focus on local/intranet servers, not remote web hosting. However, since I am web hosting, I understand that the easiest download package to do this with is the install.zip, NOT the starter.Zip? Can someone confirm?
In the meantime I've downloaded the 'install' files and unzipped.
The guides generally recommending making manual changes to the release.config and then renaming to web.config BUT there's already a web.config in the unzipped folder. What's the story here, should I be deleting the unzipped web.config and replacing?
Finally, I'm getting the idea that the software should be self-installing on the website when I browse to it BUT some guides seem to be recommending just browsing to the root folder, and some seem to be recommending going to /install/install.aspx
Which is the right answer?
