I extraced the CIVICRM files to
[my site base url]/sites/all/civicrm (www.mysite.com/sites/all/modules/civicrm)
The location on the disk: C:\inetpub\vhosts\httpdocs\mydomain\drupal\sites\all\modules\civicrm

When I execute install/index.php i get a warning:

Oops! Please Correct Your Install Location

And the automatic installer stops. I think my CIVICRM-files are in the proper directory, so I think this warning i not correct.

I have commented out the file-location check in index.php and then the first page of the installer gets presented, but with the following error:

Notice: Undefined index: SERVER_SIGNATURE in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mydomain\httpdocs\drupal\sites\all\modules\civicrm\drupal\install\index.php on line 214

All the entries and the form look good but the last (forward) slash on the following line worries me:

Does the webserver know where files are stored? OK (C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mydomain\httpdocs\drupal\sites\all\modules\civicrm\drupal\install/)

Anyone?
Thanx
IIS6.0
Drupal5.5

I think that the Drupal / CiviCRM application does know where it is located. Try looking in two config files:

In <your site installation>/sites/default/civicrm.settings.php which I think is used for the online interface, locate:
define( 'CIVICRM_UF_BASEURL' , 'my installation location is here' );

Also in <your site installation>/sites/all/modules/civicrm/civicrm.settings.php which I think is used for the Cron jobs (I may have this wrong or backwords). look for the same line.
Interesting my line says exactly the following here:
define( 'CIVICRM_UF_BASEURL' , '' );

Are these set right for your installation?

Here is the discussion by Piotr Szotkowski:

Note that the civicrm.config.php files are the same. All the non-UI-set settings go to civicrm.settings.php file, and the location of that file is determined by civicrm.config.php based on the domain it’s being run off of (and can be overridden by a settings_location.php file).

Thank You,
I just went ahead and continued the installation reagardless of the errors.
I think I have to try a manual install for IIS.

The problem is that the Smarty is using forward slashes iso backslashes for the file path location:

user warning: Smarty error: problem creating directory 'C:/Inetpub/vhosts/vnvdalpa.nl' in

On IIS it should be C:\Inetpub\vhosts\domain.....

I cannot find where i can change the slash
Thanx

Does the Smarty compiler have to be used? How do I tell if my host is using the smarty compiler?

Could be an IIS issue. Do you have an option to run on a Unix server?
