I wanted to setup a brand new project in Dw9 but ran into troubles right away ...

I downloaded the latest version 9.0.0.0 (5-9-2016) and ran the setup wizard to create the database and Files content.
This was succesfull.
But when I go to any page this message shows:

You can only upgrade to Dynamicweb 9 from Dynamicweb 8.8.1.x Or later.
Please see our Upgrading to Dynamicweb 9 documentation for other requirements.

I'm not updating, I'm installing!
What am I doing wrong here?
I don't want to install an empty 8 version and then update to 9, that's stupid ...

Also, about the files the wizard installed, the templates are .html sample templates.
I understood there would only be .cshtml template samples with Dw9 ...

Installer should be fixed now. Try downloading again.

As for the sample templates: For now you only get .html. An updated default design with razor sample templates will follow

Hi,

I downloaded the version from today, that should have been fixed according to you Morten. But still same problem! To fix the problem I updated Version/CurrentVersion to 9.0.0.0 in GlobalSettings.aspx and the solution is now running.
