    Getting a 404 error when browsing to my Umbraco install on localhost - can't find 'install/default.aspx'

    Installing umbraco

    But the path install/default.aspx exists, I just keep getting routed to a 404 error, even if I try to browse to the exact path. Any ideas?

    is umbraco your top level site, or is it in a subfolder?

    Are you referring to the installation path to setup Umbraco. Or do you have a page in your website that is named 'install'? If we are talking about the last situation, then you are conflicting with the installation folder. You can solve this by renaming your installation folder and removing 'install' from the umbracoReservedPaths attribute in your web.config.

    Cheers,

    Chris
