    Always redirected to login when trying to install

    I've downloaded the 76545 changeset from codeplex as it is the changeset associated with the latest release (4.5.2) and I'm trying to get it up and running.

    I've got it building against the .NET 4.0 runtime and it fires up OK in IIS, however; When I try to hit the install folder it's redirecting me to the login page.

    I haven't set the database up at all, and so there are no users I can login with, therefore I can't run the install script.

    What am I missing?

    Can you check the web.config?
    The key umbracoConfigurationStatus should be empty, otherwise you get a redirect to the admin.

    Hi,

    umbracoConfigurationStatus  is ="" in the web.config

     

     

        <add key="umbracoConfigurationStatus" value="" />

    and I'm still getting redirected to /install/default.aspx?redir=true&url=/default.aspx

    But, when you are redirected to the install folder, then it's working correct.....
    Or do you still get a logon screen there?

    I have already successfully installed the product and since deleted the install folder. I've created a Document type and the homepage and I'm still getting redirected

    Ok, then you have to fill in the value: 4.5.2 in the UmbracoConfigurationStatus value, then it should work.

    Did you run the installation process? Or did you install the database manually?

    I ran the installer process.

    I've just reinstated the install directory and run the installer again.

    This completes with

    Umbraco 4.5.0 is installed and ready for use

    You can get started instantly by clicking the "Launch Umbraco" button below. 
    If you are new to umbraco, you can find plenty of resources on our getting started pages.

    And I can now get to my homepage.

     

    Thanks

    Really weird, i know this effect is happening when the UmbracoConfigurationStatus is incorrect or empty, but since you entered correct value is shouldn't happen.
    Maybe try to reinstall everything from scratch....
