Hi,

I have a problem with dnn installation on my ISP production server.

Here's my scenario:

on my local machine (localhost) I've installed dnn, I've developped a new portal, and all works fine (site -> http://localhost/dnn)

Now, I want to publish my site on a ISP production server. on this server there is a site "www.mydomain.com" and I want to add my new dnn site under a folder dnn. So calling "www.mydomain.com/dnn" I'll go to my new site, while calling "www.mydomain.com" I'll go to my old site.

Following your "Install it!" instructions, I've made this:

- backup dnn db on local machine and restore it on a production db server;

- copy all dnn files from local machine to ISP production server (on production server I build a "dnn" folder with all files, replicating my local situation);

- edit dnn web.config file on production server to set db parameters;

- create a virtual directory under IIS (pointing to dnn folder) on production server, so my dnn site become www.mydomain.com/dnn;

- add "www.mydomain.com/dnn" as portal alias in "PortalAlias" table on production db.

 

And this is my result:

with IE, calling www.mydomain.com/dnn or www.mydomain.com/dnn/default.aspx, I have no response, and it seems there is a loopback because my browser loops loading a page;

with firefox, calling www.mydomain.com/dnn or www.mydomain.com/dnn/default.aspx, I receive a redirect page error.

Please can you help me?

Thanx

 

LM

nesting applications in IIS is always a bit tricky. first make sure, that the physical folder of your DNN on the server is not located inside the folder of the parent site.

make sure, you granted full file system permission to the virtual user ("Network service" by default).

Solved!!!

I moved my dnn site to production server root, deleting dnn folder and dnn application on IIS. Then, on IIS I built new application, pointing to production server root (www.mydomain.com). I granted read/write permission to "Network service" user.

All works fine.

 

Thanx
