This is how you install MDrivenServer

Download the zip found here Downloads

Import the zip on your Web site. (if you do not have the “Import Application…” option,  you are missing “Web Deploy” or you need to repair “Web Deploy”)

Is this your first install of MDrivenServer? The just click thru – you do not have any database to protect…

Is this an update? Then you can click thru anyway since the install script has been constructed to take care of your data : App_Data\DatabaseCompact.sdf – this is SQLCe database .

The install requires: SQL Ce (SQL Compact 4.0), .net 4.5 (full)

Done.
