Hi there,



I've been having problems installing the trial website on my computer. I've tried a few times using Site Manager and also manually and I keep getting the same error.



My config is Vista with SP1.



Any help much appreciated.



The error msg is as follows:




<H1>Server Error in '/bvc5' Application.
<HR width="100%" color=silver SIZE=1>
</H1>
<H2>Object reference not set to an instance of an object. </H2>[color=#ffffcc>

Thanks a lot,

Chris,

I know the error message wouldn't lead you to believe this but I'm 99.9% sure it's a database connection string problem. Check your web.config file and make sure you have the correct server, database, username and password to connect to your SQL server database.
