I'm trying to install 4.02 and I'm trying to understand the instructions in the Welcome.html  file. After steps 1 and 2, it seems everyhing else is optional:

3. Configure the Web Server

For the most part, you should not need to configure your web server.

(Cool.)

4. Configure NTFS File Permissions

If you created your new project using the IIS option...

(I didn't, so I skip this?)

5. Choose a Site Template

Under normal circumstances you do not need to do anything...

(Cool... I won't then!)

6. Install DotNetNuke

To install the site click Ctrl-F5

I also set Debug to true:

<compilation debug="true" strict="false">

So, after I press Ctrl-F5 I get a page that says the following:

Could not find file 'E:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\DotNetNuke Website1\Providers\DataProviders\SqlDataProvider\DotNetNuke_template.mdf'.

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'E:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\DotNetNuke Website1\Providers\DataProviders\SqlDataProvider\DotNetNuke_template.mdf'.

Line 85:             'Determine the Upgrade status and redirect to Install.aspx
Line 86:             Select Case GetUpgradeStatus()
Line 87:                 Case Globals.UpgradeStatus.Install, Globals.UpgradeStatus.Upgrade
Line 88:                     If AutoUpgrade Then

[FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'E:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\DotNetNuke Website1\Providers\DataProviders\SqlDataProvider\DotNetNuke_template.mdf'.]
   System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) +2013325
   System.IO.File.InternalCopy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName, Boolean overwrite) +488
   DotNetNuke.Data.SqlDataProvider.GetProviderPath() +221
   DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.GetUpgradeStatus() +342
   DotNetNuke.Common.Global.CheckVersion() in E:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\DotNetNuke Website1\App_Code\Global.asax.vb:86
   DotNetNuke.Common.Global.Application_Start(Object Sender, EventArgs E) in E:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\WebSites\DotNetNuke Website1\App_Code\Global.asax.vb:263

Any ideas here?  I'm stuck...

Cheers!

Did you download and put DotNetNuke_template.mdf in \providers\dataproviders\sqldataprovider.

If not then do so after downloading it from:

http://www.johnczimmerman.com/Default.aspx?tabid=288 

Hope it works out for you, don't worry I got alot of errors in the beginning too but once you get it right DNN is pretty cool!

Ok... I copied the DotNetNuke_template.mdf to the Providers\DataProviders\SqlDataProvider directory, (also dragged it to the Solutions Explorer and saved) then rebuilt the app.  Now I get this:

DotNetNuke Upgrade Error

The Assembly Version ( [ASSEMBLYVERSION] ) does not match the Database Version ( [DATABASEVERSION] )

ERROR: Could not connect to database.

Invalid value for key 'attachdbfilename'.

Don't know why it's giving me an upgrade error - I'm not upgrading.  Clean install.  Any ideas?

try deleting the Project you created and create a new project.
Then build and launch.
