I have unzipped the binaries to the following environment
Windows Server 2008 R2
IIS 7
SQL 2008 R2
Visual Studio 2013
My question is: Where is the install wizard?
I have set up a virtual directory in IIS and then converted it to an application.
I have given rights to the main folder and all subfolders to my own domain admin account,
I have created an empty database and created a SQL Server authenticated admin account with db ownership role.
I have looked for a Setup.exe or other binary to start installing but cannot locate one. Am I missing something?
Are you able to load any of the umbraco backoffice? Try giving IIS_IUSRS access to the folder and subfolders maybe? What user is the App Pool running under?
I haven't tried putting Umbraco in a virtual directory, but I've heard about some issues. It sometimes helps to tweet links to these forum posts to #umbraco.
Thanks for the quick response. I am totally new to Umbraco and am simply trying to demo this and other open source cms systems to decide which way forward for developing a company intranet, So I have questions like:
What is the backoffice?
When the other technologies install this package (NuGet, WebMatrix, etc.) what scripts get run to create the db tables and content folders?
Should I create a solution in VS2013, and try to run the site there? Or try to create an install solution there?

Do you have the /umbraco and /umbraco_client directories yet? Or did you just install the /bin?
What happens when you try to hit the site in a browser?
My favorite way to install umbraco is via the nuget packages. You could try that as well.
That should give you all of the files you need to run through the installation wizard in the browser.
Yes. I have the /umbraco and /umbraco_client folders.
When I try to open the site (application directory) in IE browser I get a 401.2 Unauthorized error.

Does this look relevant at all? http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-6346
