Hi guys -

Hope someone here can help ;-)

I've downloaded nopCommerce 1.4, and uploaded to a subdirectory 'shop' on my server: I've also created a SQL database in Helm control panel....

When I go to http://mysite.com/shop/Install/install.aspx to run the install I get :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyone got any tips or can point me in the right direction?

Would be much much much appreciated!

Thanks,
D

*Edit -

...I've had a look at the remote web.config file, which seems to refer connectionstring to ConnectionStrings.config - I took a look at this and it's blank, so I copied out our connection string from the web.config file of the 'main' site, amended for the new db and user I set up in Helm for the nopCommerce shop.

Any tips on what I could be doing wrong?[/b]

Okay guys, not sure if this will apply to everyone, but with our particular hosts (Zen - http://www.zen.co.uk - they have been more than helpful with this issue - highly recommended) we had to:

1 - remove line 77 of the nopCommerce web.config file (<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="51200"/>)

2 - a Virtual Directory had to be set up in Helm control panel - although I'd set up the /shop directory via ftp, there's something to do with IIS requiring a Virtual Directory set up for something it needs to do re authentication.

Hope that helps someone out at some point ;-)
