Hi, I could really use some help! I have just started developing on DNN and wanted to deploy the website to our web server to make sure the deployment will work. I am just using the default.aspx page that comes when you install DotNetNuke (the one with all the "Sponsors" images at the bottom of the page).
I manually copied all the website files over from the development environment to the web server's folder.
And yes, I added a portal alias to the database. :-)
The problem I'm having is that I can get to default.aspx, but all the links are broken except the main DotNetNuke graphic. So all the "Sponsors" show up as broken image links. When I look at the path for the images they are all pointing to (for example)...
http://<myserver:myport>/<my...
I guess part of the question is: why is the "<mysite>" part of the path? Why isn't it just looking for http://<myserver:myport>/Portals/0/aspnet.gif, which is where the file actually is? As I mentioned, the main DotNetNuke logo shows up fine, because it's looking for it at http://<myserver:myport>/Portal..., which is correct.
If it was just that the images were broken it wouldn't be a big deal, but I can't get to any other page. I.e. clicking "Login" or "Register" just gives me a 404 error, presumably because those links (in development) normally go to .../<mysite>/Login.aspx, etc.
I have read through a zillion posts on deployment but I haven't seen this problem come up. Can anybody help me figure this out? Where does that /<mysite> folder come from?
Thanks!
Phil
