Hello guys,

I have made tons of installations of dnn on XP machines with IIS 5.0 but none on

IIS 6 or 7. I am trying to install DNN 4.5.1 on Vista Ultimate. I have gone throught the installation

and launched the portal. However, when I am trying view a sub page of my portal such as the

login or register I'm getting errors. This is weird because I didn't need to create a virtual directory

to point on my 'Website' folder but I have simply put the port number so I view my portal using the following

URL: http://localhost:85/.  So my existing websites can be viewed only using port numbers! If I add a virtual directory

pointing to my site then it doesn't work. If I click on a subpage of the portal then in the URL the port number disappears

http://localhost/Home/tabid/37/ctl/Login/Default.aspx?returnurl=%2fdefault.aspx and looks like this. If I manually add the port number 85 then it works.

How can I ensure this is not happening and how can I set virtual directories to replace the port number problem?

 

Many thanks in advance.

In your web.config you can add an appSetting value for "UsePortNumber" to ensure that DNN will preserve your port number!
