I am currently getting this error whenever I create a child portal. I have amended the message so that is actually displays the pathanme it is checking, so I get an error like this:

The Child Portal Name You Specified Already Exists. Please Choose A Different Child Portal Name.
Portal Name = \\Richtest\aaa8

The child portal creation takes an absolute age to complete, but what I do know is that this folder is created almost immediately as are the portal table entry, the userid entry and the new tabs.

What does sometime happen is that the PortalAlias is not created.

However when I go to my list of portals the new child portal is always there!

So my question is why is DNN reporting that the child portal already exists when it created this folder successfully when it first started the child protal creation?????

did you verify "Network Service" account is having create folder permission for the root folder of your DNN installation?

Yes,all the permissions are correct.

The folder is created almost instantly at the start of the portal creation, as are the various table entries in the Portal, Users and tabs tables.

The DNN app then takes a good 5 minutes doing other checks (not entirely sure what it is doing but I ran a detailed SQL trace yesterday that I was going to review, but it has 170,000 rows to look at!!!!).

It then returns this error msg!

The portal has been created and can then be accessed.

I am running DNN 4.9.0 if this is any help

** POP **

Anyone any ideas why I keep getting this error?

I have just over 160 child portals and I just checked my users table and it has over 168,000 rows.

I can't see why they should but would either of these affect the child portal creation? Surely the new child portal should be independant of any existing portals or users.

My hardware and SQL Server are very highly specified and are more than capable of handling the data as a SQL trace and performance monitoring has shown.

On top of the child portal creation problem, updating any host settings also takes ages, often times out and causes the application to restart (although would I be right in thinking the restart is a default behaviour when ameding host settings?).

I have also had huge problems loaded new modules with timeouts causing only partial installation and I experience all the errors associated with this.

These errors only started happening when I upgraded from DNN 4.4.0 to DNN 4.8.2.

I am now running DNN 4.9.0.
