    Using the Web Platform Installer

    I'm trying to install the latest version of Umbraco using WPI v3 but it seems intent on using only local SQL Server authenticated login's to carry out the install.

    My issue is that my companies SQL Server doesn't have sql authenticated account, only local windows accounts to which sql logins are mapped, i.e. they use windows authentication, not sql authentication.

    The web platform installer doesn't seem to be able to use those windows authenticated accounts. I know I'm providing the correct credentials - I've tried <domain>\<username>, <username>, <domain>/<username>, <FQDN>\<username>, <FQDN>/<username> but all with no success.

    Does anyone know if there is a way around this?

    Thanks

    Rich

    Hi Rich,

    I don't know a way of installing Umbraco (via the installer) using Windows Authentication but you could try installing with SQL CE then updating the connection string post install to point to your shared instance of SQL Server.

    The connection string can be found in the web.config file.

    This applies to the latest version of Umbraco (4.7)

    Hope this helps :)
