I'm having issues installing DNN on my home computer.  I had installed 5.2.3 ( I think that was the version) successfully but something happened with one of the Telerik files and nothing would work.  Since there was nothing on the site anyway, I decided to install the latest version.  I deleted all of the old files and database and installed everything clean with no problems.  At least until I tried to start the site - it defaulted back to the install directory no matter what I did and in spite of several 'fixes' I saw online.  I tried the install again with the same result.  So I reverted back to the previous version - as it was working before - but have the same result again.

Has anyone encountered this error or whatever you want to call it and is there a fix for it?

Thanks in advance.

  • Latest version of DotNetNuke atm is 5.3.1
  • Which package did you use?
  • Which client OS do you use?
  • Did you make sure to apply permission for the account used by ASP.Net to all files and folders inside the webside?

Sorry - I've tried both 5.3.1 and the previous (5.2.3??) with the same result. I've got the install on Server 2003 R2 and the asp.net account has full control over the entire directory structure.

IIS 7.5 has some caveats regarding permissions, because of new app pool isolation, please read http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Blogs/tabid/825/EntryId/2420/Windows-7-Windows-2008-R2-cross-application-pool-isolation.aspx
