    Can't open Runway homepage after install

    Hello!

    After long hours of trying I have finally managed to install umbraco. First of all I was having problems with configuring the IIS, the physical path of the website, but I managed to solve these. So I got it work in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ directory. In the last step of the configuration when I wanted to install Runway it threw an exception which I can't recall exactly, but it said something like it is already installed and this is actually the case but I don't know what got stuck in the system because each time I reinstalled it I deleted the whole installation directory. So the exception included this: (Key in dictionary: 'runwayhomepage' Key being added: 'runwayhomepage'). -However, after reloading the page I could log in to umbraco. I tried to open the Runway homepage and that's where I got stuck.

    The exception I get is the following (even though I did not make any manual changes to the code)

    Server Error in '/' Application.

    Parser Error

    Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately. 

    Parser Error Message: There can be only one 'master' directive.

    Source Error: 

    Line 2:  
    Line 3: <asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolderDefault" runat="server">
    Line 4: <%@ Master Language="C#" MasterPageFile="/umbraco/masterpages/default.master" AutoEventWireup="true" %>
    Line 5: <asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolderDefault" runat="server">
    Line 6:

     


    Source File: /masterpages/RunwayMaster.master    Line: 

    I hope someone can help me out with this and I can finally begin my journey of getting to know Umbraco! :)

    Hi I think you have to remove line 4 and 5 of the above sample. I think it's installed twice because of teh exception you've got during install.

    Cheers,

    Richard

    The exception here was just the top of the iceberg, the root of the cause in my opinion was choosing the same sql db for each installation and thereby adding some records multiple times (don't know how that's possible). So deleting the db and creating a new when reinstalling solved the problem and now I got finally everything up and running.
