I have tried to install umbraco many times. but it stucks in the database configuration step. i use umbraco 4.9.0 msssql server 2008, .net 4.0 and xp
in the install screen, i provide my empty mssql database credientals, click on the install button, the completion status bar shows -1% is completed for hours.
This is normally a permission problem in that the installer cannot change the db connection string settings in the web.config.
Either grant the correct permissions to the installer user (depends on how you have IIS setup as to who this is) or manually edit the web.config and change the db connection string to point to your newly created DB.
but there is no problem in connection string. i checked out the web.config. connection string was ok. i also tried after changing access permissions but no work, it still stucks in 35%.
I have tried it too. In database configuration, at 35% it stucks in. Do you think installing with SQL CE and after installation migrating database to SQL server express could be work?
You can use an alternative way to install Umbraco merves, and in case you want to track the issue try to use SQL Server Profiler to see what is that.(you mentioned you use express version then you can't)
I have had the same problem with 2012 sql express. Somehow when I hit the "Back" button to go back to the Server configuration details, click "Install" again without making any changes to the server settings, the database configuration showsup as complete.
Installation stucks in database configuration
Hi,
I have tried to install umbraco many times. but it stucks in the database configuration step. i use umbraco 4.9.0 msssql server 2008, .net 4.0 and xp
in the install screen, i provide my empty mssql database credientals, click on the install button, the completion status bar shows -1% is completed for hours.
is there any about this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Hi merves,
Have you did most required steps while installing Umbraco?
Please see step 6-9 in the following post by Cultiv may be an issue with access file (web.config)
javascript:mctmp(0);
There are other solutions to install it using WebInstaller or Webmatrix.
In case you're using SQL Server Express please mention the instance name you set.
Merves,

Mark.
Thanks for commenting,
but there is no problem in connection string. i checked out the web.config. connection string was ok. i also tried after changing access permissions but no work, it still stucks in 35%.
Nazm, i use webmatrix but it didnt work as well.
thanks, do you have any other idea?
Can you please post your connection string here and if possible some details about your sql server version.
An alternative is to use Web Platform Installer
<add key="umbracoDbDSN" value="datalayer=SqlServer;server=.\SQLExpress;database=umbraco194;user id=umbracouser194;password=y|plbfHLF*H-" />
I asked you in my message to mention if you're using SQL Express :)
Please try with this :
localhost.\SQLExpress instead of .\SQLExpress
thanks for this quick reply. but it fails immadiatly at this time.
Please try to remove the keyword datalayer
As following:
<add key="umbracoDbDSN" value="server=.\SQLExpress;database=umbraco194;user id=umbracouser194;password=y|plbfHLF*H-" />
I have tried it too. In database configuration, at 35% it stucks in. Do you think installing with SQL CE and after installation migrating database to SQL server express could be work?
Thanks for your replies.
Here is a post that may help you Merves.
Merves,
Can you connect to the database using Management Studio using the same credentials as your connection string ?
Mark.
Thanks Nazm, it seems migrating not a goog idea,
Mark, yes i can connect with same credentials. I think there is no problem in connection, it stucks in "installing tables" step
You can use an alternative way to install Umbraco merves, and in case you want to track the issue try to use SQL Server Profiler to see what is that.(you mentioned you use express version then you can't)
Thanks for your help.
I solve the problem by adding new db connection on webmatrix.
I have had the same problem with 2012 sql express. Somehow when I hit the "Back" button to go back to the Server configuration details, click "Install" again without making any changes to the server settings, the database configuration showsup as complete.
Krishna,
