Angie, please compare your upgrade procedure with my check list: http://www.deutschnetnuke.de/tabid/186/Default.aspx. Note that upgrading from version prior to 4.6.2 requires manual modifications of web.config file.
Hi Sebastian
Thanks for your reply.
My upgrade procedure is the same apart of the first time I didn't modify the web.config file.
I've done the similar in your post regarding modify the web.config file
when upgrading from a DNN version prior to DNN 4.6.2:
- rename release.config into web.config I've checked my backup file, there were both release.config and web.config, so I've made a copy of release.config and rename the copy to web.config
- from previously used web.config copy the following entried into the new web.config
- both datenbase connection strings This was changed under both <connectionStrings> and <appSetting> section
- both encryption keys Didn't find the encryption keys, but found <machinekey> under <System.web> section, have tried with the original key from the upgrade zip and the key from the backup web.config file, both gave me errors
- code Subdirectories This has been comment out in the original web.config file, so left as comment out
- in section SQLDataprovider copy keys
- DataBaseOwner Done this
- ObjectQualifier Done this
- any modifications, made manually or by 3rd party components Not quite sure about this
- save web.config file Done this
- check folder /install/modules for module packages, you do not want to install/upgrade. Since DotNetNuke 4.4.0, modules with appendix .resources don't get installed, but are made available for quick installation via menu item Host :: Module Definitions. Have deleted the extra *.resources files from upgrade package, only left the original *.resources file.
After I load the page, the error messages I've got seems to be the HttpModules.
So far, all the error messages are saying "Parser Error Message: Could not load file or assembly 'DotNetNuke.HttpModules' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
After I commented out the whole section of the HttpModules, I've got error message " DotNetNuke Error: - Version 04.05.01 An error has occurred", but I'm not installing version 04.05.01?
I'm sure I have uploaded every file from the upgrade zip file (4.6.2) , don't know what went wrong?
Please help me..pita pita....
