Hi,

I am trying to upgrade a site from DNN 6.2.5 to 7.4.2. The site has en-US disabled and de-AT as the default language, no other languages are installed and dynamic localization is not enabled. There is only one portal in this installation.

First I tried to upgrade directly, and everything seemed to work fine - until I upgraded one of the third party modules and wanted to check if the language resource files had changed and entered the page Admin :: Languages. There I got an error message saying the module is not available. I changed to debug mode (in web.config) and found out that the exception is fired in the file LanguageEnabler.cs, line 363. The line reads:

installAvailableLanguagePackLink.NavigateUrl = string.Format("{0}#availableExtensions", tab.FullUrl)

I then restored the 6.2.5 installation and following the suggested upgrade path, I upgraded to DNN 6.2.8. I went to Admin :: Languages, everything worked fine. I then upgraded to 7.3.2, the upgrade went without any errors, but again, on the page Admin :: Languages this error:

This time, it was line 365, but it is the "same" line as above.

Any ideas?

Happy DNNing!

Sebastian,

thank you for your answer. I have not moved to advanced urls (yet). The fallback is "System default". Again, the problem is: The whole site works fine, except the Language Management module on the page Admin :: Languages fires this exception.

The PortalAlias table contains only a single record:

PortalAliasID	PortalID	HTTPAlias	CreatedByUserID	CreatedOnDate	LastModifiedByUserID	LastModifiedOnDate	BrowserType	Skin	CultureCode	IsPrimary
1	0	xxx.xxx	-1	2011-11-11 09:23:27.030	-1	2011-11-11 09:23:27.030	NULL	NULL	NULL	1

Any idea?

Happy DNNing!

Sebastian,

I can only set this before upgrading to version 7 - I did, and the same thing happens (with the little difference that the language code appears in the URL). I also tried to set en-US as the default language, that did not help either.

Happy DNNing!
Michael
