DotNetNuke installation failure

Discussion in 'General troubleshooting' started by potteryMike, Aug 13, 2012.

  1. I have attempted to install DotNetNuke using the AppWebInstaller
    I have the same exact results each time.

    I have outlined everything I did, step by step


    I created a new db named : DNN

    I then changed the password to the database DNN

    In webappgalleryinstall.aspx
    I name the directory : dnn
    I “Select Database” and pick the database: DB_46240_dnn
    The Database Server filled in : s05.Winhost.com
    Database Name: DB_46240_dnn
    Database Username: DB_46240_dnn_user
    Database Password: mypassword

    CLICK the install application button

    Window warning Pops UP - CLICK OK

    A little graphic timer pops up the disappears ( now what?? )

    I guess I should click the back button
    I have no idea what to do next. So I now check to see if there is a directory created ? Yes there is, so I guess I should try http://yumatimes.com/dnn


    InstallWizard.aspx
    I keep the dropdown on English
    I keep the radio button selected to: Typical
    I click Next
    I keep all the check boxes check as default the click Next

    In the Config Database window
    Select Database: SQL Server 2005/2008 Database
    Server: s05.Winhost.com
    Database: DB_46240_dnn
    Integrated Security is UNCHECKED
    User Id: DB_46240_dnn_user
    Password: mypassword
    Run as db Owner is CHECKED
    Object Qualifier: BLANK
    I Click the Next Button

    Building Your Database Page
    Installing database script animated progress bar working
    Inside the progress text box it reads
    Installing Database – Version 06.00.00…
    Nothing else
    (not like the video showed. No list being created nothing seems
    to be happening)
    Time 10:27am
    Watching the installation video again, I am waiting
    To get to the Configuring you Super User Page

    Time 10:32am
    Still waiting
    I check the Winhost MS SQL Manager and see the usage is up to 6 mb
    Maybe something is happening??

    Time 10:50am
    Still nothing

    Time 11:16am
    I REFRESH the page.
    Then I see action

    I keep checking the size of the Database using MS SQL Manager from the Winhost Dashboard
    Size keep increasing until 14mb
    But @ 11:29am

    Waiting for http://yumatimes.com/dnn/Install/InstallWizard.aspx?__U=1344882395562

    That’s it, I can go no further

    So I go to
    Http://yumatimes.com/dnn

    I am forwarded to http://yumatimes.com/dnn/Install/UpgradeWizard.aspx

    There was no screen as the video indicated, where I can assign the SuperUser
    Now I am being asked to give the SuperUser Username and password. Which has not been defined yet.
    If I enter “admin” and mypassword click the Upgrade Now button.
    The page refreshes clearing my entries with no error message

    I am stuck

    It seems that you have solved your issue because I see your DNN site is now running: http://yumatimes.com/dnn/

    Correct? Or are you still having an issue?
     
  3. Hi, Admin, is he hosting the DNN site on Basic or Max? It loads pretty good here in CA; I was thinking of hosting a DNN site with Winhost.

    We recommend hosting DotNetNuke on either the Max or Ultimate plan.
     
  5. Roger that, thanks friend. Oh... can I get host as well as admin access within the DNN app?
     
  6. If you install DNN you'll have admin access to the application.
