Hi, I have been using DNN 4.9 on a production server for about 12 months. I have had problems upgrading to DNN 5 but thought this was more to do with the SQL Server 2000 so have been happy with what I could use until now.
I have just configured a new server running Windows Standard Ed 2003 with SQL Server 2008. I have tried to do a clean install of DNN 5.01 but when invoking the wizard I get the message
Select Installation Method:
|
|
Choose Language:
|
|
The Auto option has been disabled as the DotNetNuke Application cannot connect to a valid SQL Server database. You can continue to use either of the other two Wizard options and configure the Database settings at the appropriate Wizard step.
Then when I click next I get the following errors
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'D:\home\Default\salonstudies.co.uk\htdocs\web.config' is denied. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy) at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize) at System.Xml.XmlDownloadManager.GetStream(Uri uri, ICredentials credentials) at System.Xml.XmlUrlResolver.GetEntity(Uri absoluteUri, String role, Type ofObjectToReturn) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.OpenUrlDelegate(Object xmlResolver) at System.Threading.CompressedStack.runTryCode(Object userData) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.RuntimeHelpers.ExecuteCodeWithGuaranteedCleanup(TryCode code, CleanupCode backoutCode, Object userData) at System.Threading.CompressedStack.Run(CompressedStack compressedStack, ContextCallback callback, Object state) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.OpenUrl() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Read() at System.Xml.XmlLoader.Load(XmlDocument doc, XmlReader reader, Boolean preserveWhitespace) at System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(XmlReader reader) at System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(String filename) at DotNetNuke.Common.Utilities.Config.Load(String filename) at DotNetNuke.Framework.AJAX.IsInstalled() at DotNetNuke.Framework.AJAX.AddScriptManager(Page objPage) at DotNetNuke.Framework.PageBase.OnInit(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean incudeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)
and on the last try I got......

I guess i am doing smething wrong but havent worked out what. Has any one got any ideas for a non-technical amateur?
Welcome to the DotNetNuke Installation Wizard. This wizard will guide you through the installation of your DotNetNuke Application.
You may navigate through the Wizard using the Next and Previous buttons. On some pages you will see a third button "Test ...". This button will allow you to test the configuration before you continue, to see the effects of changes.
The first step is to select the installation method to use and to choose the language you would like to use for the Installation.
