I'm getting this error when trying to install the product:
ERROR: Could not connect to database specified in connectionString for SqlDataProvider Login failed for user 'COMPUTER-NAME\DotNetNuke'
I can connect to the database when logged in as this user via Sql Server Enterprise Manager
What do I put in the web.config file for SiteSqlServer if the following is true:
The computer name is "COMPUTER-NAME"
The sql user name with db owner privileges is "DotNetNuke".
The sql user password is "the-Password".
The sqlserver service name is "SQLSVR2000".
The database is "DotNetNuke".
Here's my current try, which isn't working. I'm darn tired of trying to figure out the magic handshake. Any help would be appreciated!
Access to the path "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\DotNetNuke\Portals\_default\Logs\LogFailures.xml.resources" is denied. The Windows User Account listed below must have Read/Write Privileges to this path.
I'm not sure why that is. What account is trying to write to it?
ASPNET?
DotNetNuke?
IUSR_<computername>?
As far as I can tell, all of these accounts can write to this directory and to these files.
If this answered your question, be sure to mark it as the answer. That way, everybody after you will know it's the answer also!

Please download the DNN 3.1.1 docs from www.dotnetnuke.com and read through the DotNetNuke Installation Guide.
The permissions you need to set are on page 4.
