    2 Ways to install Umbraco - Why?

    Hey Guys,

    I have discoved there are two ways to install umbraco 6.

    1. Create a blank MVC project, then add umbraco to that instalation.

    2. Create a new umbraco installation from the zip file by loading the files in to IIS and running the site.

    When I heard umbraco 6 was now 'fully mvc' I would have thought that when install it normally, you would get controller folders, view folders etc..

    I just want to know what the diffrence between the two installation methods are and why they exist?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi, yea i would not do it like this.  Just create a new class liabary project (Create your surface controller and MVC stuff in here) and build that into the bin of your www root project.  This will save you alot of trouble.  Charlie.  :)
