I downloaded the 2.0 and 3.5 binary packages last night and tried to get them working on my 2008 server. I continue to get security compilation errors when running /install.

So today I grabbed the source and tried to build it, but I get Unknown Server Tag for every YAF tag (110 in all).

If I can get the source building, I should be okay, but if anyone has any ideas about the security compilation issues, that might help too.

Thanks,

Here's the error on the server...

I resolved the issue with the binary installation.

I user the Administrator as the Connect As user in IIS 7 during setup and then reverted to a standard user after installation.

I'm glad you got it worked out and you updated the thread for others who might have the same issue.

Some people just get it 🙂
