Hi everyone,

I successfully installed DNN 4.0.3 on my local PC (Win XP SP2, MSSQL 2000). Then I wanted to install DNN 4.0.3 on my web account (Win 2003, MSSQL 2000). Here the problems start.

I tried to make a clean install of DNN 4.0.3 with all files on the web and database on the web. This fails:

Installation Complete

 

Click Here To Access Your Portal

 

Then I tried to clean install on my PC but still using my web database account. It still fails.

 

What is it I'm doing wrong? I have db_owners rights on my web database. I have previously been able to run other ASP.NET 2.0 applications on the same web/sql server.

 

I can not try the last combination placing files on my web account and using my local PC database.

 

local web local web remote web remote web
local sql remote sql local sql remote sql
OK failure can not try because of network failure

 

I have followed the instruction about the Network service right carefully.

 

Thanks,

Suhail

ahhh, yes the dreaded "Portal Failed to install".

just finished with that one on Sunday, was failing every single time at the portal installation.

i don't know what fixed my issue, but  as soon as i changed the following items, it installed. (well... it "seemed" to install after i changed the items below, but it could of been one of the other 300 things i was messing with)

in web.config I had Changed The Following TO:

          minRequiredPasswordLength="8"
          minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="2"

I Changed them back TO:

          minRequiredPasswordLength="8"
          minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"

Also, remove the DB in the App_Data before you attempt to install again.

Notes:

- my password is longer that 8 characters, if yours is less, the change the 8 to your required pwd size.

HTH

Johnny
