Hi everyoneYesterday I tried doing a manual install of Umbraco 6.1.1 on a Windows 8 with MSSQL 2012.During installation, I was stuck at 5% "Connecting to database".The SQL user, were given sysadmin rights and the app pool user was given full control to the physical folder where Umbraco resides.I tried with Umbraco 6.0.6, got the same error.I then tried with Umbraco 4.11.9, it completed instantly.So does Umbraco 6.1.1 even work on Windows 8 with MSSQL 2012?Umbraco is really missing a Software and Hardware requirement page, like the one for SharePoint (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485.aspx)
I just tested on Win8 with SQL2012 and didn't have any issues installing.
Is the installer giving you an error or is it just sitting there forever? If sitting, can you try checking your console to see if there's a JS or other error happening?
Also, can you confirm you're able to login via SQL Sever Management Studio using all the same info you're typing into the installer, and can access the DB that way?
Can you try the above reccomendations and report back?

When you merged your web.config file, did you maybe also replace the `umbracoConfigurationStatus` key? Try setting that back to your previous version, the running the installer again. The installer should update it to the new version once it completes.

Let us know how you get on

Hi Tom, thank you for your response.
Got back to scratch and it got past the 5% now. :)
Yea that getting stuck at 5% tends to be because of a access issue. (At least all of the problems i have seen on here have been becuase of that)
I'm having the same problem now when upgrading from 6.0.1 to 6.1.1 (Windows 2003 R2, SQL Server 2012)
Hi Jonas,
Can you try the above reccomendations and report back?

The DB connection is correct, but after some more investigation, I was upgrading from v6.1.0-beta to v6.1.1 and I get this error in the log
2013-06-17 21:36:24,618 [15] INFO Umbraco.Core.ApplicationContext - [Thread 14] CurrentVersion different from configStatus: '6.1.1','6.1.0'
When you merged your web.config file, did you maybe also replace the `umbracoConfigurationStatus` key? Try setting that back to your previous version, the running the installer again. The installer should update it to the new version once it completes.
I solved it by merging the web.config's, but the umbracoConfigurationStatus key was correct.
is working on a reply...
