WebMatrix 2 Beta is unavailable for Download. The link is installing 1.0 or 1.1 version.
Thanks #cusman, that fix is correct (I posted that on the WebMatrix forums (here: http://forums.iis.net/1166.aspx and specifically here: http://forums.iis.net/t/1187078.aspx). I've made a fix so users should NOT have to use the workaround provided above (for English users that is)

To get WebMatrix 2 Beta, it appears you need Web Platform Installer 4.0
Unfortunately the link on http://www.microsoft.com/web/webmatrix/next/ was giving the launcher for Web Platform Installer 3.0 which only served up WebMatrix 1.11
Their site still references Web Platform Installer 3.0, but it will upgrade you to Web PI 4.0 and then provide you with the option to install WebMatrix 2 Beta.
Just make sure the link to download is pointing at:
a http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/install.aspx?appid=webmatrix&prerelease=true&mode=new
That last part of the link I have bolded was missing as recent as yesterday.

Just installed VS 2019 Pro on a new system. When I open a solution with .net 4.0 project, I get this error: Project Target Framework Not Installed.
When I choose download it, it goes here but does not have option for .net framework 4.0.
In project settings there is no option for .Net Framework 4.0 in targeting framework:
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/visual-studio-sdks?cid=getdotnetsdk
I have tried installing 4.6.2, 4.5.2, etc.
How can I get this project to open? It opens on my other machine. It has these options for Target framework in project settings:
Please don't say change the framework version, we need this older version for very old computers running XP and Win 7 that cannot be upgraded.
thank you
You have to go directly to their download site. As shown in another correct answer that was downvoted, it's still available even though it's past end-of-life.

You can package the install files with your app just in case, although most likely your installer will see that it's missing and download it anyway.
You can try downloading .Net 4.0 here: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet-framework/net40
Mandatory warning: Installing an old, unmaintained .Net framework comes with security risks. It's up to you to determine how much those Windows XP PCs are vulnerable and manage said risks.
I'm following the guide oninstalltion Umbraco here. It seems that they don't mention VS2015but I followed as closely I could by installing it into an empty MVC 5 project.
However, as I install UmbracoCMS via NuGet, I see this error (and a bunch of alikes, all nagging about DNX 5 being not supported).
NU1002 The dependency Microsoft.AspNet.WebHelpers 3.2.3 in project PocUmbraco does not support framework DNXCore,Version=v5.0.
c:\users\chamster\documents\visual studio 2015\Projects\PocUmbraco\src\PocUmbraco\project.json
I'm very unclear what to do about it. I've googled but didn't find anything helpful, likely due to ignorance and limited experience with Umbraco.
You actually installed into a ASP.NET 5 project (which has MVC6).
You should not use the ASP.NET 5 template, but something like 4.5.2 or 4.6. DotnetCore is not supported by Umbraco. Not sure about ASP.NET 5, but according to this, it does not sound very supported to me:
https://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-7/using-umbraco-7/66903-umbraco-on-linux-with-aspnet-5
Also, leave out azure if you just want to get a POC running.
Then after you created your empty ASP.NET project, install nuget package UmbracoCms, and hit that F5 button and go from there :-)
I am trying to install Sitecore 8. I got an error saying "SQL Server Version Not supported - SQLServer (10.50.1600.1)" I tried to find installation document to know database requirements. I could not find anywhere, may be i am looking in wrong place.
doc.sitecore.net
kb.sitecore.net
Could some one point me out in right direction.
Found it finally,
For someone like me searching the whole internet here is the link
Sitecore 8 installation Guide
Checkout How To Install and Configure Sitecore for the complete guide on installing latest version of sitecore.
Sitecore 8.1 has a specific requirement for the operating system, IIS web server, .Net framework and the database server. Follow the detail sitecore guide for installing the sitecore properly.
IIS Requirements for Sitecore 8.1
IIS 8.5
IIS 8.0
IIS 7.5
IIS 7.0
.NET Framework and Database Requirements for Sitecore
To install Sitecore 8.1 you would need minimum version of .net framework 4.5 and above. Sitecore requires miminum MS Sql server 2008 R2 SP1 or above editions like SQL server 2012, SQL server 2014 and MongoDB Database 2.6x
The site appears to be in beta, so the accepted answer is no longer working.
It appears that the best recommendation, as of now, is to view the general Sitecore 8 downloads page, find the version you want documentation for, and then scroll down that version's page to find the documentation.
Given how hard it is to find the Sitecore 8 page (I had to search their new beta community forums), I much prefer the old SDN site.
I am more of a DNN end user and not a DNN developer.
When I bought my DNN hosting package from iHostASP.Net about 2 years ago, version 6.0 was the current version for the community edition and iHostASP.net set it up for me. I did not make much use of the website until now and I am planning to relaunch my website.
I see that 7.00.05 is the latest community and if I got to the DNN website from the upgrade prompt from my DNN instance, I am taken to http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Downloads.aspx
from where all I can do is download a zip file.
How do I have this upgrade package installed? What I have on iHostASP.net is a website setup, so I don't have full access to the server itself. All I can access is the Helm Control panel for my website.
I have host access to my website, but can't see how I can have the zip file uploaded or installed in my DNN instance.
Any pointers would be appreciated. Does anyone know of any breaking changes in this upgrade from 6.0.0 to 7.0.05? I am not using any outside module other than what is supplied out of the box in a default DNN community edition.
Thank in advance.
Suggested upgrade path recommends upgrading first to the latest DNN 6, and then to the latest DNN 7. At the moment, this means first upgrading to 06.02.07, and then to 07.00.05.
This is just a recommendation, though. If you get upgrade errors, or the site doesn't work as expected, I would try again with the suggested upgrade path.
DNN system requirements have changed substantially between versions 6 and 7. Support for Windows 2003 servers has been dropped, but I doubt IHostASP.NET has used these for a while.
You likely have FTP access with IHostASP, if so, you can watch this video for how to perform an upgrade
http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Video-Library/Viewer/Video/244/View/Details/Upgrading-A-DotNetNuke-Site-Via-FTP.aspx
You should also check out the Wiki http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Wiki/Page/Upgrading-DotNetNuke.aspx
Be absolutely sure to back everything up first though, if you don't know how, ask your hosting provider what backup options they provide.
I tried installing MVC 3 from the download in http://www.asp.net/mvc/mvc3 - both with and without the Web Platform Installer. As soon as the download is finished, the installer says installation is finished, yet I get no observable effect - I can't create MVC projects and it doesn't appear in Uninstall Programs.
Any idea how I can get MVC 3 to install?
Edit: Forgot to mention, I have the just-released SP1 installed.
Look in the eventlog to see if there any errors related to Windows Installer.
We had a similar issue, because we had the SP1 beta installed. Uninstalling the beta, and then running the installer worked for us.
