    Hi Michael

    How are you trying to install Umbraco? Is it manually? Or is it using webmatrix or the web platform installer? And what database are you using?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi,

    I have the same issue. I'm using a SQLExpress edition and installing it manually.

    Regards,

    Hi Michael,

    Fixed my issue. I gave writeable access privilege to web.config. I added IIS_USRS with Read and Write policy. If you can't find IIS_USRS then it should be <user account>\IIS_USRS.

    Hope this will help you.

    Regards,

    Allan

    Hi Guys,

    Thanks for this I ended up scraping the way I was doing and changing to VS2012 and loaded up a different way and got it working.
