Re: Problem upgrading from 5.0.1 to 5.1

other users reported problems with the skin - maybe menu related. try to use default skin for testing first.

Re: Problem upgrading from 5.0.1 to 5.1

I found the problem.

There was a malform XML in the HostSettings.ascx.resx under \DesktopModules\Admin\HostSettings\App_LocalResources. Look like the upgrade broke this file. Look at the end the file, </root> appeat twice with a peace of text.

</data>
<data name="JQuery.Text" xml:space="preserve">
    <value>JQuery Settings</value>
</data>
<data name="plProduct.Text" xml:space="preserve">

</data>
<data name="plProduct.Help" xml:space="preserve">

<data name="FrameworkDownLevel.Text" xml:space="preserve">

Re: Problem upgrading from 5.0.1 to 5.1

are you using release version or a beta? I can't confirm, in my local installation build 5.1.0.773 (Release) file HostSettings.ascx.resx has a single /root. File Size 35.760 byte, dated ‎5. ‎June ‎2009, ‏‎21:10:30 (UTC+2)
