Hi,

I'm sorry you've run into installation issues. Typically this error comes up when SharePoint is installed but the incorrect site is selected during the DBXL install. Since you're not using SharePoint, we can discard that. I wouldn't rule out an issue with the site, however. Do you have just the default site (port 80), is it https, any other sites? (these should show up in one of the first few screens of the DBXL installer) I see that the computer name above is Labserver.cos.comcor.org, so it would be interesting to also take a look at the first tab (in the tabbed view of the DBXL installer). You can attach screenshots via the Options tab when replying. Thank you for the additional info.

Hi, Ernesto

Thanks for the reply. I am taking over for Justin. I am the systems administrator. The server does not have any othe IIS sites and there are no other programs using IIS. The default site is HTTP, Port 80. I attached the screen shot of tab 1.

Thanks, Larry

Hi Larry,

The other thing I can think of is SQL permissions. The account of the user installing DBXL will be used to connect and create the database and thus requires sysadmin permission. Can you verify that the account you are using to execute the installer and the Network Service (or the account you are selecting for DBXL) have administrative permissions in SQL?

Thank you,

I am logged into the server as the Domain Administrator. I am using SQL authentication and using the sa account. Also the Domain Administrator is a member of the DbxlAdmins group.

I am trying to install DBXL on a Windows 2008 R2 Standard x64 server.

I am not sure what setup.exe version Justin downloaded. 

Sorry for the delay. The trial on the web site should work for both.

I have tried both the setup.exe and the msi to install and failed with he same error.

It appears it may be something with IIS. The databases are created in SQL.

Summarizing the issue for future users: Windows Authentication was not installed, then we had to do a aspnet_regiis, and also enable 32 bit apps on the 64 bit OS.
