live site deployment
hi there i am trying to upload the CMS to a live site

i ran the CMS installer and followed all the steps from the http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/devguide/deployment_to_the_live_server.htm

but when i browse to the url i get the error
Server Error in '/' Application.

The resource cannot be found.

Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.

Requested Url: /cmsinstall/install.aspx

i have checked in the httpdocs and install.aspx is there?

RE:live site deployment
Hi,

Could you please try to describe us your live server a bit more? Is it some kind of shared hosting server where you have access rights to your database and ftp or it is your own server?

However, it seems that the IIS server running on the live server is not configured for the web project folder you are trying to access. If this is your own server, you need to configure this in your IIS server or if this is shared hosting, you need to ask your hosting provider to do this.

There is should be following notation sentence after you have successfully finished the installation to deploying folder:

Please note: You may need to create virtual directory on your server manually unless you copy project files to the root of your web site.

Thank you.

Best Regards,
