Are you trying to do a local install? If so make sure that the domain you have setup for your site, for instance demo.local is created in your hosts file.
Make sure you have given the proper permissions for network service and iusr on the root folder containing the umbraco files and folders. (Make sure they are inherited properly all the way down).
Make sure the app pool is running integrated mode and the identity is network service in IIS.
You will also need to prepare the database if you have not already done so.
If you're using mssql express you need to log in to the database server using SQL server management studio express and create a new database for your installation. When the database has been created you need to create a new database user, which should be mapped to the database created. Make sure that the database user has all rights except those two called something with "deny".
Now you should be able to run the installation with succes.
I am installing this on a remote server... I haven't got it working yet - but I think it is more server related as the server admins are also having problems :)
How to install using source files?
The Web App Installer has broken on my host and I need to install umbraco.
So first I did these steps:
And I get a 500 internal error :(
It sounded correct, but obviously I am doing something wrong?
