Hi, I have seen a few posts regarding an issue we have - but just want to make sure the feedback is relevant to DNN 8.0.
We did a clean install of DNN 8.0 and it's running fine in local dev.
1. We did a http alias in SuperAdmin mode while still running in local dev.
2. Restored the db in production
3. Uploaded the application files via FTP
4. Changed the webconfig with correct settings:
<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="server=41.185.13.201,1433;Database=novus_sa2008;uid=novus_sa2008jhfUG9;pwd=fKUYFK6r4ff6;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
This is the temp URL for production: http://novussealing.co.za.winhost.wa.co.za/
We now get an error - only included the first two threads:
2016-02-16 11:16:13,366 [WINWEBS07][Thread:330][FATAL] DotNetNuke.Framework.PageBase - An error has occurred while loading page.

Can somebody please help?
