I downloaded YAF-v1.9.3-FINAL-BIN-NET20, tried to build a bbs on my local computer with IIS6 and .NET 2.0.

While I do as install.txt, some problem show as below:

I am doing a NEW INSTALLATION,

copied "/webconfigs/recommended-web.config" and rename it to "/web.config",

created a new database named "yafnet" in my SQL Server 2005, modify the connection string in DB.CONFIG to "data source=NEWOMEGA-2F43EC\SQL2005;initial catalog=yafnet;integrated security=SSPI;User Id=sa;Password=123456;",

uncomment the "root" key in app.config and add value "/yaf/" ( IIS address is: http://localhost/yaf)

now open "http://localhost/yaf/install/" in my website,the page seemed like ok:

but after I type password and click "Next", it showed:

How can I fix it?

Need the details of the error screen before we can diagnose what is going wrong.

You will probably have to turn off "CustomErrors" in your web.config so you can get the full details of the error. Also, it is recommended that you use a newer version of YAF. 1.9.3 is two releases old, and the developers are actually working on a BETA of the next release now - which should be due out soon.

The password that is asked is NOT the db password.
