Sounds like you haven't setup IIS security correctly. Are you using Windows Integrated Authentication or Anonymous Access with AppPool?

Can you validate that you followed all the steps in the wiki (http://www.nealosis.com/wiki)?

Make sure that the ASPNET tab in IIS Manager is set to use v2.0.50727.

You don't need anything to run the site other than the website pages and an IIS server running ASPNET 2.0.

Can you navigate directly to the default page (http://localhost/music/default.aspx)?

Hi Thunderstruck,

Thank you for your reply. I have setup ISS for three times now. I do not understand it anymore.
Can you tell me step-by-step how to configure ISS (6)? I have tried all steps at the wiki page.
What do you mean with the authentication options? Which items have to be selected and which don't?

Can you guide me? Thank you.

I have added a folder (music) in the default iss-site and placed all files of the cms.
I have configured the two files as mentioned. When i try to start the site, i always get the same error "page connot be displayed"
I think i have to configure ISS form scratch. Ca you help me with these setps?

Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards,

Arno

At this time the MP3 CMS is designed for programmers and system/web administrators and not regular users. We don't have the resources on the
project to program up a friendly installer yet, but at some time in the future we'd like to do that.

In any event, the steps should have been something like this (the same steps to setup any web page)

Assuming IIS and ASPNET v2.0 (and AJAX Extensions) is installed correctly on the server:

1. Create virtual directory called music off of "default web site"
2. Set startup page to Default.aspx
3. Set ASPNET version to v2.0
4. Set Directory Security > Authentication & Access Control > Enable Anonymous Access (Checked) all other options unchecked
5. Site set to use custom Application Pool

6. AppPool setup with network account identity or NETWORK_SERVICE account
7. Network account or NETWORK_SERVICE given read, write, list permissions to music share
8. AppPool default timeout value set to unlimited

Sorry I can't be more detailed. I'll try to draft up a more clear installation document in the near future.

HI Thunderstruck,

I've found the problem. You should kick me !!! ;-)
I forgot the options to allow asp at the iss options.

Thank you so much for your help.

Still one question: what is the first (admin) login? What are the credentials for logging in the first time?

Kind Regards,

Arno

Hi Thunderstruck,

One other question... is it possible to download numbers / albums for my visitors?
I cannot find any option to change settings for this cms. Can you help me?

Thank You Again!

There is no default login. When you run the site for the first time register an account and login with it,

Also, as far as administration goes, we have developed the Interfaces for Roles but we haven't implemented them yet so as it stands now every user is an administrator, which is why the edit tags and delete features are disabled.

As far as album processing goes, the CMS is designed to consolidate albums among users on a central server. So for example, we have done several implementations for people at small businesses or home offices where the administrators create a Music share that everyone can write to. Then all the users copy their albums to it and the system scans them all automatically and updates the database.

We still have a lot of work to do on the project but our developers (right now it's just me) don't have the time to do all the things we want. It's slowly evolving and if you compare the current release to v1.0, there is no comparison in looking how far this project has come from where it started a few years ago.

Hi T3,

I would say, keep up the good work! It's very good looking & it's getting better with every change.
If there is a way to help / support you with this fine piece of work, let me know. :-)
I hope many more features will be implemented in this cms.

Can you keep me a little up-to-date? (maybe a mailinglist or something?)

If you have so more useful info / tips please let me know.

Kind Regards from a little country called the Netherlands :-)

You could recruit some Dutch programmers to volunteer to work on the CMS :)!

No user mailing list right now but I update the forums when adding new features.

Thanks!
