After I got the published files of DotNetNuke from my development vendor
I created database, created new user,
Uploaded the Published DotNetNuke files on FTP,
Provided the permission on the DotNetNuke Folder,
Created a Virtual Directory, modified the web.config file.
Ran the Default.aspx file, completed the DotNetNuke Installation steps.

I got message congratulations, you have successfully installed DotnetNuke.
When I clicked 'Finished(Goto Site)' I got DotNetNuke Error:- version 04.07.00
with no message details, one thing to note is now my URL reads like this

http://questionpapers.com/DotNetNuk...;content=0

I think I am so close yet so far from website launching, Please help me.
 

From the URL it looks like that application is not able to get file /app_GlobalResources/locales.xml

Mention below are few important Files & Folders Structure on my FTP location

I had created Physical Folder DotNetNuke (later on made virtual directory) which contains all the DotNetNuke published files from my development vendor, rest all files and folder are provided my hosting vendor.

I don't know if I did it right? or is it that I was not supposed to create a Folder DotNetNuke but to replace all the files and folders of /httpdocs/Website/ with DotNetNuke published files

I think my development vendor has not provided me Folders App_Code and App_GlobalResources from DotNetNuke published files? am I right?

Hi,
my suggestion would be to download installation files from DotNetNuke.com (I would go for version 4.9) - this way you will know you have all the files, than install them in the root of your site not in a subfolder.

Make sure you can connect to the database via SQL Server Management and the entry in web config file is correct.

If you go to http://questionpapers.com it will show that there are no site files associated with the domain, make sure that this is set up correctly.

Hope this helps.
