Exception while installing Commerce on Windows 7 Ultimate

Hi guys,

I'm wondering someone might have encountered this and figured out a workaround.

When I installed a CMS site using the same database settings and credentials, it installs just fine.

But when I install Commerce with the same settings and credentials, this is what I get whether I specify a license or not.

"===in trapping ex ===
An unhandled error has occured:
The ConnectionString property has not been initialized.

System.Management.Automation.ParentContainsErrorRecordException: Exception calling "Open" with "0" argument(s): "The ConnectionString property has not been initialized."

 

I hope someone can help me with this.

 

Thanks,

Philip

I also had some trouble with the Commerce installation. Here's a blog post I wrote about it. Hope it helps you.

Note this is for Commerce 1.0. I have not tested if Commerce 1.1 is different.
