Thank you.

What permissions did you add? Needs to be for the ASPNET user.

Hope this helps,

Ben

Great, that worked for me, thanks! However, I get the home page but none of the graphics/css seem to be working? any ideas?

Hi

Thanks a lot, worked for me too.  It would have been easy to have this information on the documentation : https://www.nopcommerce.com/Documentation/Installation.aspx

Kind regards
