I've tried a completely polite answer but was ignored by "the system" xD.

Sebastian, I guess that was where I am wrong, do you mean Windows User account or SQL User account?

Victor, I will try that.

Chris, You are everywhere! I am running a local SQL server since I quick from Azure (due to I was unable to update DNN 7.4 to 8.0).

Thank you all for the answers.

The previous post should be deleted, not sure how to do it from my side.

Anyway, I was able to add dnndev.me to the folder security in C:\websites\dnndev.me with "Modify" permissions but still I am getting the same error "SQL login failed" on installation.

you need a SQL Server user, you are specifying "dnndev.me" for it, but it needs to be created as SQL Server login and be granted dbowner permission for your new (blank) database.

As I told in the first post, I already created a "New SQL Login" with user dnndev.me and mapped it to the database as db_owner. I think it has something to do with the Application Pool. Thank you anyway

Thank you very much for your help.

I could make it work by changing the SQL Server auth mode to "Windows Authentication and SQL Server" (my mistake).

 Thanks again!
