How to create a Sitefinity 4.0 project using IIS

Neil Newman posted an incredible video demonstrating how to create a new Sitefinity 4.0 project in IIS (Internet Information Server).  I’ve embedded the video below:

[ Here is the original link on Viddler ]

This video demonstrates the following:

  • Setting up a new IIS web site in the IIS Manager
  • Creating a new SQL Server database in SQL Server Management Studio
  • Using Sitefinity 4.0’s project manager to create a new IIS project
  • Opening the new project in Visual Studio
  • Removing the WebDavModule  (Why?)
  • Use the Sitefinity 4.0 setup wizard to setup a database connection
  • Creating the administrator account
  • Logging into Sitefinity for the first time
  • Creating a new page
