Hi all,
I have a big problem that just popoped up. Hopefully somebody can show me what steps I need to clean up this mess.
I had a basic page that I linked to my DNN site. Now that the site is ready, I changed the domain forwarding to point to my DNN page so that users wouldn't see "mysite/dotnetnuke" in the address bar. When that went thru, I got a 'page not found' error. So I put the forwarding address back to the way it was, but am still getting the 'page not found' error.
This site is a subdomain of another site I have, so I created a subdirectory on the first site to hold this site. It ends up being that the DNN path is www.mainsite.com/ThisSite/ThisSite/dotnetnuke (yes, ThisSite was in there twice:\) Anyhow, everything was fine up until I changed the domain forwarding, and now the directory structure is: www.mainsite.com/ThisSite/dotnetnuke! Godaddy somehow lost the intermediate directory and I think that is what is causing all the problems. I tried changing the URL's in all the sqlserver tables to point to this new path, but that didn't help anything.
I think I'm going to have to back up the database, reinstall DNN then try to restore the database. After saving the db, first I'm going to try and recreate that missing subdirectory, but at this point doubt that's going to fix it.
Is there a set of procedures anywhere that will guide me thru this re-install so I don't have to go back to square 1 with this?
Thanks
