Just a FYI for those that, for whatever reason, don't use dnndev.me and don't own another domain name that points to 127.0.0.1 (localhost), after copying your DNN files to the folder your website will reside, you'll need to edit your hosts file (C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts) and add an entry to the bottom so that 127.0.0.1 points to the domain you want to use. For example, if you're using something like mysite.test you would put 127.0.0.1 mysite.test into the hosts file. You may have to open Notepad as an administrator to make this change.
Hi, the videos are very good, but I have a little note here: if installing on a w7 server or on their server equivalent, the first run fails because the apppool created runs on .net framwork 2.0 (Unrecognized attribute 'targetFramework'. Note that attribute names are case-sensitive. This is on web.config line ) so there is an aditional step to fix it: go to application pools on IISManager, and edit the dnndev.me pool to target net framework 4.0.
I had a problem in terms of login failed. The error was "No valid default database connection detected. Standard Database setup option is unavailable". Solution: use the custom option and then active the SA user and password in your SQL server, you will be able to continue the process. The reason is that this wizard gets the IIS pool user as a default one. Hence, if you create a user, you will be able to connect to that specific user & password without any problem. I hope you find this text helpful.
Chris, you mentioned virtual machine at the time installing dnn. Is vm required for dnn on windows operating system or it was just because you were using some other operating system? Thanks.
Hi! I followed the steps but then when I open dnndev.me a windows IIS page is opened instead of the one that allows you to log in. What can I do to fix it? Thanks in advance.
Hi there... I followed all your steps till this episode and i am unable to get the default option to choose and my installation is when choosing custom keeps giving me this: ERROR:Index #: 0 Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider Class: 20 Number: -1 Message: Please advice
I have followed your tutorial each step and when you get to the installation of dnndev.me it only gives me the advanced option. I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2016 with MSSM. So what do I do now? everything I put in it says it cannot connect.
Hey out of curiosity are you going to be doing any videos on using react with dnn, or using visual studios templates for dnn? i've been having build errors all over the place. Thanks! Also, i would recommend a wind filter or pop filter to help you get a slightly clearer vocal track. You have a perfect recording voice, just need one of those to help soften those P's and stuff. Thanks!
Thanks @Taz, I've just gotta find my pop filter, misplaced it since the last round of videos I recorded, I'll try to locate it tomorrow before I record the next video. As for future video. Templates, absolutely, I'll also be working on testing the templates to make sure they work with Visual Studio 2017 here shortly. React, not sure on React videos. It's possible, but first I'll have to come up with some examples that I can use it myself and make sure I understand it :D
Thanks for responding! The pop filter isn't needed, i just wanted to mention it to you, hope that didn't come off the wrong way haha. I can understand the ReactJS not being included, i just admired DNN's adoption of it, as it is my primary javascript framework. I'd love to see some videos on the templates. There is really not a good round of videos about the templates. Out of curiosity, do you work with DNN or what is your affiliation there? I could probably research it, but the fact that you responded is amazing to me so i thought i would ask. I'm trying to learn a lot about DNN, as my boss is pushing to implement it this year and no one has any clue how to do anything with it except him, so i can't wait for the rest of these videos! Keep up the great work!
Hi. I followed the sequence of videos from 1-12 and they worked perfectly. Thank you. I need to know whether the site developed using the techniques you described, can be used as a real time CMS?. I have a windows hosting account with GoDaddy and how can I publish this?... Appreciate if you could respond.
Hi, please can you help out,am having issues with my first installation,it stops at 30% and gives this error 'Value cannot be null. Parameter name: type'.any way around this,thanks

Your instructions worked perfectly for me. Thank you very much for your help. I am now going to watch all of your videos.
You are great for these video tutorials. I'm glad you are still using DNN.
Just a FYI for those that, for whatever reason, don't use dnndev.me and don't own another domain name that points to 127.0.0.1 (localhost), after copying your DNN files to the folder your website will reside, you'll need to edit your hosts file (C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts) and add an entry to the bottom so that 127.0.0.1 points to the domain you want to use.

Wow.Your instructions worked perfectly for me. tnx

Sorry, google had your comment filtered as spam, I just found it.
If you are using SQL Express you can choose the default database.
Best tutorials , if someone wants a quick DNN site installation then nvquicksite is best option .
