OK, so, you made the leap and downloaded an installation package of DotNetNuke 4.x. Congratulations for making the leap to the wonderful world of DotNetNuke. Now what? Well, here's a step-by-step
instruction guide to get you up and running with DotNetNuke 4.x as painlessly as possible.
- First open the installation package zip file you just downloaded. Extract these files into a new folder on your C: drive called C:\DotNetNuke.
- Allow the ASPNET user 'modify' rights on the C:\DotNetNuke folder.
- Open IIS and create a virtual directory under the default web site called DotNetNuke which will point to the C:\DotNetNuke folder. For a detailed look at this process, see the Creating a Virtual Directory in IIS article.
Right click on the virtual directory you just created and click Properties. Add default.aspx to the Default Documents under the Documents tab.
- Next, open your internet browser and navigate to http://localhost/dotnetnuke
- The 1st page of the DotNetNuke installation wizard should appear. Leave the Typical installation option selected and click Next.
- Next, we will test the file permissions necessary for the installation to continue. After the permissions have been tested, click the Next link to continue.
- The next step will create the database connection for DotNetNuke. We will keep the default entries for this walkthrough so just click the Next link to continue. This will initiate the database scripts to begin execution. After the scripts have completed, click the Next link.
- The next page in the wizard will allow you to configure the host user. Enter a password, confirm it and enter an email address.
- Next we will configure the portal administrator account. Again, provide a password and an email address for the portal admin account.
That concludes the installation process. Click on the Finished link at the bottom of the page to enter your new web site. You can then login as the host or portal administrator user to manage your site.
We hope that experienced how easy it is to get up and running with DotNetNuke.
