Hello,
I have an installation of 4.03 running (www.bluebusinessdev.com) and have tried to upgrade to the latest release, 4.3.5.
Here are the steps that I take from my understanding of the instalation instructions.

1. Download upgrade zip file
2. I unzipped the file into a folder on my pc
3. Made a copy of my web.config file on my remote server
4. Copied the upgrade folder over my existing DNN folder on my remote server.
5. Transferred the necessary scripts from my old web.config file to the new web.config file on the remote server.
6. When I browse to the installation file I get an "/" application error.

Anyone else come up against this? Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help.

Regards,
Dan

I just tried to upgrade to 4.5 once again with no result. I checked my host settings and my version of DNN still reads 4.03.
Below is the web.config I used with the 4.5 upgrade package. Am I using the right package? Should I be using the source or install package instead? Thanks for any tips or advice.

Dan

Hi Leupold,
Danke fur diene augenblick.
There was no error message. I browsed to my dnn directory after following the upgrade instructions and no upgrade message, just the regular site came up. The browser window title states Blue Business Development (dnn 4.35), but when I login as host, my host settings state 4.03? Also, I have tried to upgrade once before and it did not work. Not sure if that is related.

I was hoping that upgrading would resolve my main issue which is that I can't create or update portals, I keep getting a webpostback is undefined message. I am using blowery compression so I added the exclude path for ebresources line that other forums have discussed but still no luck. Danke fur diene hilfe.

Dan

Dan,

gern geschehen

you are strongly advised to disable blowery compression during the upgrades, this could be the reason for your troubles. Try to unpack the files again, if issues persist, re-run the database upgrade scripts manually from host :: SQL menu item, don't forget to check "run Script".

HTH
