Follow the Episerver book

Vote:

I want to install the example-site that you are supposed to mimick in chapter 4 of the Episerver book.

The problem is that I don't know what to download to start the installation or what to do then.

I have managed to install CMS 5 in Visual Studio, but that doesn't install the examplesite as I understand.

I have tried to download SDK and Epsiserver manager, but is still confused. I wanted a file I could click on and the Episerver would be installed and also the examplesite.

Please help!

If you use the episerver manager, you will get an option to install the public template package. Is that what you are looking for??

I'm not sure. It says in the book that you shall install Episerver and as a last step create the example web site.

Yup. If you use the manager to install EPiServer, the last step will give you the option to finish the installation, or to continue with installing the public template package.

If you are reffering to the Developing solutions with EPiServer book, it was written for EPiServer 4 not 5. Unless there's a new book out there :) So, the steps might not match the book.

Well, I tried the 4.6 version since the book had that. I solved the database-problem (thank you!).

But now Episerver starts to install and then I get a message that it has been rolledback.

It says "not set to a reference of an object". But what object???
