Wow, I seem to be finally getting somewhere now. Everything looks good, except my images are now broken. I migrated from live install to a local install. After messing with the Portal Alias for ever. Any clues as to why the images are broken. The site is localhost:81/DotNetNuke/ but the images are trying to be at localhost:81/Portals/_default/Skins......

Please Help.

Thanks
Joe

this is a known issue, due to the fact that image paths are stored domain relative and not portal relative. you  need to keep portals in same relative paths, i.e. either on the server in /dotnetnuke subfolder or in root folder of your local machine, achievable either with Vista professinal or, if using Win XP, by using free XP Pro IIS Admin.

I'm using W2K3 R2 to host the site. With that being said. I need to figure out what folders the remote host had it's images stored in? I guess I don't understand the problem.

no, I talked about the local URL path like in the browser, e.g. "/images/safe.gif" on the server and "/dotnetnuke/images/safe.gif" on your local machine do not match, because the local installation is in a virtual folder, not the root of a web site. you need either to place DNN in both locations in a virtual folder or the domain root. If you want to place it in the root of your local XP pro machine, free "XP Pro IIS Admin" tool might be of great help.

Sebastian,

Ah, I understand. I got the images to work, but now I get:

Module Load Warning
One or more of the modules on this page did not load. This may be temporary. Please refresh the page (click F5 in most browsers). If the problem persists, please let the Site Administrator know.

This is getting so annoying. Also I can't seem to log on as admin (local site). I can however on the production site.

Thanks

Joe
