Hi everyone.
I am struggling with an issue on DNN 5 for a few days. I can't find any explanation why such behavior occurs.
The problem is that when I try to open my solution with the DNN website it won't load. Just before loading the solution, VS2008 exits without any message and warning.
The strange thing is that this behavior didn't occur before. Maybe some Windows update messed it all up? I don't know...
Here is the behavior I discovered:
I open a new solution and I create a new DNN website from the VB template. Everything works fine. I can open and close the web site many times.
Then I run the website and install it. Next time I open the solution, the website won't load.
I tried different scenarios.
First I thought that the problem was due to converting the website from .net 2 to .net 3.5 target framework. I wasn't right.
Then I thought that maybe the built-in VS web server was the problem, so I deployed the website on IIS and tried to open it again. Still not working.
Then I noticed that I can open DNN website which is not installed, but I cannot open DNN website which is already installed...
This is so strange. Do you have any idea what might be happening?
I have some VS add-ons... not sure if they might cause the problem.
Does VS keep any log files? Maybe I can check them?
Thanks in advance!
