    Runway website is not displaying properly

    I have installed umbraco and the runway model website

    When I previewed in the browser it is not displaying properly, no CSS formating is applied?

    I am using windows 7 and have IIS 7.5

    Hi Laura,

    this is most likely a permission issue. Does the Internet Guest user account have read access to the Umbraco folder? On 7.5 you will most likely need to give 'IIS AppPool\your-apppool-name' permissions on certain folders of the Umbraco installation, have a look here: http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/important-files-and-folder-structure/permissions. Also, did you create a new web site or are you running Umbraco in a virtual directory?

    Cheers,

    Sascha

    Hi Sacha

    Thank you for the response

    To be honest I am really confused as I am not use to the new IIS 7.5/Windows 7. I have followed the permissions guide and added Network service. I restarted my website in IIS. It is still not displaying properly.

    All I did was run the installation from the windows installer.  Umbraco is a website in IIS

    Regards

    What is the path to the css at the moment?
    Try adding a "/" to the beginning of the path to start at the root
    eg:

    <link href="/css/runway.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

    Hi,

    Actually figured it out.

    In IIS7 I have a website application called jgsite and within that site their is another application called jgsite ??

    So I have to add ../ to the css reference.

    I did install the Umbraco from the Web Platform Installer is it meant to install like this ?

    Hi,

     

    Just thought I would say how I resolved this.

    I uninstalled my version of umbraco. It is important when you install umbraco that is it the default website in IIS.

    I found a step by step guide on youtube installing umbraco from the web platform installer
