Hi,

I downloaded DNN Community edition and installed it via Web Matrix. However, after successful installation, when I try to browse the url, I am getting the following error message.

Instance failure.

ResourceName:

The database exists there in the App_Data directory. How do I resolve this issue. Please help. I am trying it for the first time.

Thanks
