Hi Everybody,

When installing DotNetNuke i recieved an error that the program didn't have permission to write to the c:\windows\temp. After that I've made sure that networkservice has read and write acces to that directory.
I've tried to reinstall DotNetNuke.
But how can I restart the install?
When opening the install url the only thing i get is a white page.

So how do i just reset the install state en proceed with a new one?

Thanks in advance!!

With kind regards,

 

Rob Smeets

 

P.S.

When i just go to the root of my dotnetnuke site (without install\install.aspx?mode=Install) i get an error saying:

You could either restart IIS (start iisreset in start/run) if you have local access to the server or you could change something in web.config (just add a space somewhere to be able to save the web.config)
