Hi,

this issue is directly related to your database server. Do you have mixed mode authentication torned on on your SQL server?

Hello,

Unfortunately due to restrictions with Web Platform Installer you must use a SQL Mixed Mode Authentication to install an application which means you need a SQL Server user account in order to install an application. Here is a link how you can change the SQL Server authentication mode: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188670.aspx

Regards,
Mario
