    Installing Umbraco V5 Beta 1

    Installing umbraco

    Hi,

    I have now for a while been trying to install Umbraco V5 Beta 1, but without success. I have installed iis express and used it to run the site, which I have downloaded from codeplex.

    Whenever I try to access access the site it times out. Once in a while it displays the frontpage, but when I then click on the install link, it again times out.

    I have made sure that the app pool is running in Integrated mode, anything else I should be aware of?

    Thanks,

    I have tried to look at the thread, but I simple just doesn't get to the sted with filling out the database. The browser just keeps trying to load http://localhost:{myport}/Install and times out.

    Ah, ok.

    When you unzipped the download did you make sure you unblocked the zip file?

    What do you mean about unblocking, I just extracted it, like any other zip-file?

    That could be your problem then.

    Thanks,

    I tried to unblock it, and extract the files to a new folder and setup a site there. Just for the test, I set the permissions for everyone to fullcontrol, but it still just times out.

    Stephan, it just keeps trying to load the install page and doesn't get any where. I have tried with the regular iis setup for .net 4.0 and integrated mode. I have tried setting the security to FullControll for all users, and I have tried using IIS Express, but with no luck.

    Have you checked the Windows event log for any clues?

    Can’t see anything obvious in the event log...I have progressed a little...

    I can now get to the sunburst "Welcome to the Umbraco installation" page but all the buttons are hidden? but they are there as I roughly remembered where they were from older installs...I also get a white/blank bar across the top of the screen.

    The page also takes FOREVER to load really very very slow...the next step just hits me with a connection reset

    I have just looked at the event viewer, and nothing is present. To make sure I have cleared the log, and tried to load the page.

    I receive the excat same error as Stephen.

    I found the error to be AVG antivirus.

    I uninstalled it, and installed another antivirus program, and it then worked.

    Wow, what a pita.

    Very glad you found it though, I think this cropped up on one of the hackdays.

    Nice one Philip, that done the trick for me also - what a pain having to uninstall AVG though...

    www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

    As alternative virus scanner in addition to Avast I also think NOD32 and Microsoft Essentials seem to be popular among other members of the community.
