precise instruction for IIS Express

install

Hi, I am looking for precise instruction for IIS Express. I already found the details to add in applicationhost.config file from the thread: http://support.geminiplatform.com/questions/3704/install-gemini-trial-version-with-iis-express

Yet it still doesn't work so i must be missing something. I have IIS Express and SQL Server 2008 R2 running and installed properly. Please can someone point me at the exact and complete instruction to accomplish the installation. Once in the Web setup page of Gemini i can do it alone without pb, its just getting Gemini installed and running on IIS Express.

many thx !

Error message says: "-1: the installer was unable to create the Gemini SQL database. Please check the Windows Application Event Log for error details. Error typically occuer due to the provided SQL server credentials being incorrect or if the database already exists. Please run the "Sample Database" executable after this installation completes. Executable: C...."

I have previously installed the default MS SQL express server with all default options, I didn't change anything and no other application uses SQL on my machine. I have admin rights.

I expected this to work out of the box with no hickups. We may go with Bugzilla instead of Gemini if this can not be setup easily and without headaches.

That is because you have probably didn't specify the instance name. SQL express installs under the express instance. Put server\sqlexpress in the server name.
