I am installing dnn 5,5 at my shared hosting with IXWebHosting

I was able to ftp the files and browse to the wizard for the install

Then the sql scripts installed everything fine. I made a name/pas for host and stuff

Then the wizard redirected me out of the install process and back to the site

The site showed an asp.net error...

Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File --> <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="Off"/> </system.web> </configuration>

These are the steps:

I downloaded dnn5.5 and then unzipped the files and used ftp to upload them to my hosting provider

I used the hosting provider web control panel to create a DB on MS SQL and made a user for that DB

Then I browsed to the dnn URL and used the wizard to run the sql scripts

Then I made a host account and the wizard redirected me to the URL where I see the asp.net error

most likely, there are configuration issues with the web site or permissions. Alter web.config file as stated in the error message (download, edit using a text editor, upload) and check for error details

I've had these errors on ixwebhosting. This happens because the default domain is set asp v 1. Switch the version of asp and everything will be okay.
