I've tried both nuget and download. In both cases I can install umbraco however when I try to add documen types I get a nullreferenceexception when I click on the create menu item.

oh how bizarre. It seems the iis site i was using had the umbraco folder configured as a virtual directory - not sure why i did that, was for some other stuff i was working on I'm guessing. However looking at the log (thanks @Jan) I noticed some 404's from that folder. I removed the vdir in iis and viola.
You're welcome happy that it led to the solution :) Remember to mark the topic as solved so others can go straight to the solution if they should come accross the same issue.

Hi Sean
Hmm, have you double checked that permissions are fine? Do you see any additional information about the error in the /App_Data/logs file?
What are your system specs? What DB are you using and what webserver are you using?
