Hi there,

I'm hoping someone can help me with this.  I had dotnetnuke running fine from the server side and I configured a few pages to how I want them, all was well.  Unfortunately I could not access the site from a remote PC, when I did the following would happen...

I got this information while using a packet sniffer.  I'm confused about 2 things, firstly why install.css is being loaded when the site is already installed and working, secondly why it works locally but not from a remote system.

After doing this the application seems to be borked, I can't access all of the pages and I can't even log in from the server side, as well as not being able to access it remotely.

I can access a standard html file that is within the root of the site.

Any ideas what's happened?  This is about the 20th time I've installed dnn and something goes wrong every time.

Thanks in advance.

Nick.

Your site needs to have a name that is available externally AND you need to have an entry in the site's portalalias table that includes that name.

Sorry, what do you mean?   Can I resolve this without logging on?  as I can't log on at current.  I installed using the install wizard...

 

Cheers.

Is it possible that anyone else can re-iterate on this a little?

if what you mean is I need a domain name, I have a domain name, I just haven't pointed it to the new server yet.  Also, I fail to believe that I need a domain name to install and use DotNetNuke, as I know that isn't technically true.

Any idea how I fix my now borked installation?  Or should I just start all over again for the nth time...??

You can't access "localhost" from a remote system.  If you use this URL, that's your problem.  If not, then DNN is forwarding to this since it only has this as a portal alias and you haven't added a portal alias for what you are using as a URL.
