after installing win2003 web editioni got the following permissions errors in the umbarco 3 configuration wizard
- Checking default folder permissions:
./css : Failure!
./config : Failure!
./data : Failure!
./media : Failure!
./xslt : Failure!
- Checking optional folder permissions for packages:
./bin : Failure!
./umbraco : Failure!
./usercontrols : Failure!
- Cache (the umbraco.config file): Failed!
- Creating folders: Failure!
as stated in the Umbarco3.0 configuration wizardi gave ASPNET modify permissions. i still get the same error.

Give NETWORK SERVICE or whatever user your app pool is running under modify permissions on folders that currently fail! /Dirk

Caveat: Non-expert alert!
try NETWORK SERVICE?

I'd be surprised if you didn't run into any other problems later on. I've never heard of this solutions, but that's just me. Maybe someone else can confirm this? Regards, /Dirk

That's why there would be no version information. Changing the value will stop the installer running (and you should remove the /install/ directory when you're done btw). You will still need to set the folder permissions. Some web hosts do this automatically but certainly for Windows Server 2003, you need to give NETWORK SERVICE modify permissions to the directories the installer would have listed. Richard

Hi, Re: Quote:Also, i get to the main cms page and i select create and a window pops up titled Create content.
the form has two fields a textbox for the name and a document type dropdown. the drop down is emtpy as is the documenttype table in teh data base is this correct?....begining to thin i should try a reinstall........ If you haven't created any document types before, then, yes, dropdown will be empty when trying to create new content. Re: Quote:2. I had the Time tracker starter kit installed and running on this server pre umbraco install and after install it is gone..... That's too bad, but really has nothing to do with installing umbraco. I'd guess you've installed umbraco over the previous starter kit install. To be really, truly honest, I would go for a reinstall. Can't remember how many times I've installed umbraco, including reinstalls because of stupid errors. Hey, don't get discouraged, it may be hard times at first, but once you've get everything up and running, you'd wish you'd never done anything else :) If you need assistance in getting up and running again using a fresh install, shoot, people will be there to assist. Good luck, /Dirk

Hey, don't get discouraged, it may be hard times at first, but once you've get everything up and running, you'd wish you'd never done anything else :) i wrote my first web site in late 1995 and my first data driven one in early 1995 (being a data guy) getting discouraged is not in my makeup or i'd be working at burger king by now! :)) If you need assistance in getting up and running again using a fresh install, shoot, people will be there to assist.
