MachineKey 

Im trying to install DDN 4.7.0 on a remote server. I have configured the web.config file so it points to the 2005 MS SQL database, however when i run the install.aspx file, it produces an error saying it has a problem with the machineKey.

My question is this, since its a new install, shouldnt the default machinekey values be ok since there has been no users made?

How do i find out the validation and decryption key on the remote machine im trying to insall to?

Thanks in advance,

Jy.

Re: MachineKey 

These settings are in the web.config file. Are the permissions set correctly on the directory the DNN is installed in (including sub-direcotries).  The permissions need to be as follows.

Win2000: ASPNet User - Read, List, Write, Modify, Execute.

Win2003 and above: Network Service User - Read, List, Write, Modify, Execute.

If not set, this could affect the install since the install creates new random keys for the install, so the site does not use the default keys.
