I have been running DNN v 3.x upgraded to v4.x to host 3 non-profit portals on my home server for several years with great success.  I have installed a new second ISP who blocks port 80 and I want to run DNN on that ISP and cancel my old ISP for performance reasons.

On my old ISP, I have used Mydomain.com to create an A record that points to my home server IP and all works fine. With the new ISP, I need to do the same, but use port 8080 instead of the default of 80.

I have spent 3 weeks trying different schemes of redirection and just can't get DNN to work correctly.  Other Active Server pages and .Net pages work fine. 

Has anyone had any experience with using ports other than port 80?  I'm a programmer by trade, so coding workarounds are an option.

Thanks in advance.  Brad

This is more of a apache/IIS issue then a DNN issue from the sounds of it. If you edit the http port on whatever web server s/w you are using DNN should work fine.

Make sure the Port Number is included as part of your PortalAlias, and then in web.config, add an app setting (if it is not there) called "UsePortNumber" and set it to true:

 <appSettings>
  <add key="UsePortNumber" value="true"/>

I haven't tested this, but the code is there to support it.

Thanks - I will give that a try later tonight when I get home. 

One additional complication is I don't want users to have to include the port number on the URL, for example http://www.mywebsite.com:8090 .  In the past, I have gotten around this by usings a stealth redirection where by http://www.mystrealthwebsite.com is a frameset that includes http://www.mywebsite.com:8090 in the visible frame.

Setting UserPortNumber to True may solve that issue.
