Hy there

After I updated dnn from 4.0.2 to 4.4 (using the install package and just overwriting the files / merging the web.config). Wenn I called the dnn in the browser a upgrade page showed up and told me about 2 errors while updating but at the end it worked.

The problem about this is, that i cannot log in anymore as host. Maybe because the password was only 5 characters? Is this a known issue or have I done something wrong?

Thanks for your help

Are you sure you copied the machinekey values over as well? That is usually the problem with not being able to login after an upgrade.

Basically after an upgrade you must copy the encryption keys from the old web.config file to the new one, which I have done already but I am still locked out. Any other suggestion how to resolve this isssuse?

Christoc,

Thank you for this post.

I upgraded to DNN 4.4 and could not login.

I copied the machine key info from DNN 4.3.7 web config file to the new one and it works!

BTW It's silly to have to go to Google to instantly find this answer after searching fruitlessly for many minutes on DNN search!
