I'm having some trouble installing Umbraco, I get as far as Step 3/5: Validating File Permissions and I get an error Cache (the umbraco.config file): Failed!
I have checked the permissions and Netwok Service has full control and I have also checked in IIS that the AppPool is using Network Service.
N.B. I have been using Umbraco for the past year on and off and i'm a big fan, it has all I need in a CMS, thanks Umbraco.
it is the Internet User Guest Account (not group), you should be able to find it when you click on add users in the security tab, then click on advanced and click on 'find now' without any parameters. It's the IUSR_[Your-Computer-Name] account.
If you are using Umbraco 4.0.* you should also give the NETWORK SERVICE service account permissions on the required folders, or if you are installing 4.5.* the IIS AppPool\[Your-AppPool-Name]. Have a look at some of the install documentation here: http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/install-and-setup.
I'm installing Umbraco v4.0.4.2 on MS Server 2003 so after reading the above documents I gave C:WINDOW\Temp NETWOK SERVICE permissions but unfortunatly it didn't work.

You should give IIS_IUSRS permissions :-)
Kipusoep,
Thanks for your reply, I'll give that a go tonight and I'll let you know how I get on.
Thanks
David
Kipusoep,
I tried assigning IIS_IUSRS permissions, but the group IIS_IUSRS seems to be missing.
I'm using IIS6 on a Window Server within a VPS.
I would be grateful of any ideas.
Thank you
David

What about IUSR or IUSR_{Computername}?
Hi,
I've given IUSR_[Computername] permissions and NETWOK SERVICE permissions but i still get an error on Validating File Permissions step 3/5
I'm installing Umbraco v4.0.4.2 on MS Server 2003 so after reading the above documents I gave C:WINDOW\Temp NETWOK SERVICE permissions but unfortunatly it didn't work.
Thanks
David
I'm still having trouble with this, any ideas anyone.
May try a fresh download and install.
Thanks
David
Yes, try a clean and fresh install, preferably in the inetpub\wwwroot folder.
You can also try to remove the umbraco.config file (maybe it's locked)?
Hi David,
Try to reset/restrart the "world wide web publishing" service.
After a new download, clean install, and new database everything works as it should. I just want to thank everyone for their help.
Thank you.
Regards
David
