HI....I tried to do the upgrade but it had so many errors it was overwhelming.   Many of my modules have 5.x versions so I didn't know whether to upgrade after upgrading the whole environment or what.  I decided to start with a fresh 5.x, install the module, copy the data tables (carefully checking to see which ones are module id sensitive etc) and hope for the best.   This way, I can install the modules and verify that everything is ok, one module at a time.

  I fixed the issues I had post upgrade simply by running this SQL statement:

 

DECLARE @portalId INT

DECLARE mycursor CURSOR FOR

SELECT DISTINCT portalId FROM {databaseOwner}{objectQualifier}Portals

 

OPEN mycursor

 

FETCH mycursor INTO @portalId

WHILE (@@fetch_status<>-1)

BEGIN

INSERT INTO {databaseOwner}{objectQualifier}PortalLanguages (

PortalID,

LanguageID,

CreatedByUserID,

CreatedOnDate,

LastModifiedByUserID,

LastModifiedOnDate

) VALUES ( 

/* PortalID - int */ @portalId,

/* LanguageID - int */ 1,

/* CreatedByUserID - int */ -1,

/* CreatedOnDate - datetime */ GETDATE(),

/* LastModifiedByUserID - int */ -1,

/* LastModifiedOnDate - datetime */ GETDATE()) 

FETCH mycursor INTO @portalId

END

 

CLOSE mycursor

DEALLOCATE mycursor

Then restart the DotNetNuke application and all is well.

Jsheely, thank you for posting your solution, but unfortunately it doesn't fix all issues reported.

I strongly suggest for anyone upgrading from DNN 4 to 5, to perform an experimental upgrade of a copy first, due to a number of possible caveats.

Please report your findings ( I might need it myself, when I'll start upgrading my sites to DNN 5 in the future ;) ).

Cheers from Germany,
