[quote][b]DY-Joat (3/7/2006)[/b][hr]I read the "InstantKB.Net ReadMe.txt" file.

Your documentation states "For step by step installation instructions and information on each web.config application settings please refer to..."

http://www.instantasp.co.uk/products/instantkb/installation.aspx That webpage does not exist. It defaults to an aspx error path.

I have run the 2 included scripts, I found on the forum to set the folder to "application".

This is the error I get now: http://www.titaniumschedule.com/InstantKB13/error.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/instantkb13/Default.aspx[/quote]

Dear DY-Joat,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Please see below the steps to install the InstantKB manually:

1 - Unzip the file. You can place the InstantKB13 folder wherever you want.

2 - Open the IIS Manager in Control Panel\Administrative tools\

3 - Click in the WebServer Name, Web Sites folder and then Default Web Site

4 - Right click in the Default Web site, New Virtual Directory

5 - In the alias, you can insert any name, then click "Next"

6 - Click in the Browser to fill in the path to where you inserted the InstantKB13 folder. Next

7 - Make sure the permissions are Read and Run Scripts. Click Next and Finish.

8 - In the application Folder, we have a folder called Database_Scripts folder. There you can see two script files (IKB1_3_freshinstall.sql and IKB_Defaults.sql)

9 - You should execute the IKB1_3_freshinstall.sql script first in the Query Analyzer as an Administrator User like sa

10 - After successfully running the IKB1_3_freshinstall.sql, you should open and execute the IKB_Defaults.sql script file

11 - The InstantKB.config file is located in the root of the application folder.

12 - In this file you should alter the connection string:

<Name>InstantKB_ConnectionString</Name>

<Value>server=localhost;trusted_connection=true;database=instantkb13</Value>

</ConfigValues>

A typical connection string consists of four parts which will all need to be updated to use your SQL Server connection details.

SERVER=TheSQLServerName
UID=YourSQLUsername
PWD=YourSQLPassword
DATABASE=TheKBDatabase
