Hey! Have you found/followed the instructions in these articles? I’ve found these very helpful when I was first learning to set up developer instances.

Hope this helps!

Hello
Here is a related help article https://help-2023r1.acumatica.com/(W(4))/Help?ScreenId=ShowWiki&pageid=b18ad378-0a8c-44f1-a14c-6b4f9c6271e4
I you are using Microsoft SQL Server, and have not made any special configurations, you should be able to click “Next” on the Database Server Connection window shown in your screenshot and it will use the default anonymous user account used by Internet Information Services (IIS) to authenticate your connection to the database.
I am not familiar with setting up a MYSQL server connection.
When setting up a local dev instance I typically don’t create a new SQL Server login. On the database connection window, I select the “Windows Authentication” option and the system takes care of the login in the background.
Did this not work for you, or did you have a reason for not wanting to use Windows Authentication?
As I recall, if it allows you to get to this point, it was able to establish a connection.
I could be wrong here, but this looks like an issue with Internet Information Services (IIS).
The error messages don’t mention an authentication error, but rather an issue with application pools, which are managed by IIS.
Do these errors pop up before you’ve clicked anything on the Website Configuration window?
Also, it’s worth asking. Did you carefully follow the IIS configuration steps outlined in this article? Setting Up Local Developer Instances of Acumatica - Part 1
There are a number of things that have to be configured in IIS in order to run an Acumatica instance on your computer.
I would also suggest selecting the option to create a new application pool, since if you are doing development work, you will sooner or later want to install more than one instance and those should be run in separate application pools.
Do these errors pop up before you’ve clicked anything on the Website Configuration window? After Clicking.
The error sounds familiar, but I couldn’t tell you where to start looking in IIS for the source of the problem.
Is there a guide on how to launch it was its installed?
A lot of what I know I’ve learned through trial and a lot of error!
If my answer helped you solve the issue, I’d appreciate if you mark it “best answer”!
