Windows 2003 server, SQL 2005 Database Server, DNN 3.2 upgrading to 4.8.
Modified the web.config with the following entries:
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005-->
<add
name=
"SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Server=FullyQualifiedServername;Database=DotNetNuke;uid=xxxx;pwd=xxxx;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<add key=
"SiteSqlServer" value="Server=FullyQualifiedServername;Database=DotNetNuke;uid=xxxx;pwd=xxxx;"/>
<add key=
"AutoUpgrade" value="false" />
Entered the following URL: http://hostname/install/install.aspx?mode=upgrade which results in:
Duplicate Portal Users
We have detected that the following Users have duplicate entries (they exist in more than one portal). You need to be aware that after the upgrade, the password for some of these users may have been automatically changed (as the system now only uses one password per user, rather than one password per user per portal). It is important to remember that your Users can always retrieve their password using the Password Reminder feature, which will be sent to the Email addess shown in the table.
