  • I always get that everytime I try and install on IIS7. Just edit the wp-config-sample.php file manually and rename it to wp-config.php.

    Create a web.config file with the code below and place it into root.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <configuration>
        <system.webServer>
            <directoryBrowse enabled="false" />
            <defaultDocument>
                <files>
                    <clear />
                    <add value="index.html" />
                    <add value="index.htm" />
                    <add value="default.html" />
                    <add value="default.htm" />
                    <add value="index.php" />
                    <add value="index.py" />
                    <add value="index.pl" />
                    <add value="default.asp" />
                    <add value="default.aspx" />
                    <add value="index.asp" />
                    <add value="index.aspx" />
                    <add value="holding.html" />
                </files>
            </defaultDocument>
            <httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" />
        </system.webServer>
    </configuration>
