    installation on dashCommerce hosted server

    Hi all,

     After having quite a headache last week trying to get dashCommerce to run on GoDaddy, I opted to purchase hosting through dashCommerce.com. Everything is going well except that I cannot seem to run the install scripts. When I browse to my_domain/install/install.aspx everything shows up correctly, but clicking the 'next' button brings me back to the same page. If I try to cheat and append ?step=1 to the end of the url, I find that each additional page returns me back to itself instead of going along and running the startup scripts.

     I imagine the problem might be that I haven't transferred over my domain yet. The website is currently live and I would rather not experience any downtime (even an hour in the middle of the night would be too much) when I do not know that everything will work perfectly right out of the gate. So I have been reaching my website through the 'site preview' feature in the control panel.

     ie, I'm running the install scripts from the following url
    http://72.52.233.167/$sitepreview/my_domain.com/install/install.aspx

     Is this possible? Thanks in advance!

    Nevermind! I'm an idiot. There's an ip provided in the control panel that I can reach the website at without having to use the preview feature.

    Hope this is helpful for anyone that chooses the dashCommerce hosted option, it's a very good solution.
