All right I have 4 sites that I am hosting on a win 2k8 standard server machine running iis7. I am trying to install a 5th and the install gives me an error 500 or an unexpected error occured after submitting settings to configure the database. I installed drupal using the Acquia Drupal installer from the Web Platform installer. I am really stuck as how to get this running correctly.
Sites running currently from the codebase:
localhost - default site folder
glazedproductions.com
ricestreetmusic.com
drupal.flipnfool.com
The one that I am having trouble with is relicrocks.com.
I have tried building from the localhost database and copying the all the tables over to the new db schema, and manually configuring the settings.php file to connect to the correct db, but this doesn't work either.
Is there a limit to how many sites can be hosted from a single codebase? If more information is needed I would be more than happy to provide it so I can get this new site installed and operational.
Thanks,
Nick

Kinda backwards...
Well, since no one seemed to care about this post and helping me figure this out. I did a slight workaround, but I still seem to have some troubles with this site.
My workaround:
copied tables from localhost db to relicrocks.com db
Now that everything is up and running, I can add pages, modules, and everything else, but I seem to be having an issue adding users even as an admin. I can delete users and update them, but I have to do the adding at the db level, and becuase the password field is encrypted, i can't get the new users logged in.
I am not sure if the whole thing started as a MySQL issue or a drupal issue. I am also trying to install a 6th site from a subdomain of glazedproductions.com, which i find to be having the same issues as the last time. I don't want to have to copy the localhost db again, as I am sure that it will cause the same problems as relicrocks.com.
Can anyone PLEASE help me, I am really in a bind and could use some advice.
Thanks,
Nick
