Hello,

I've just tried upgrading to version 5.06 from 5.05.1 and have experienced the following issue.

The URL http://example.com is no longer being redirected to the home page. Instead the ErrorPage.aspx page is being displayed but no exception has been generated. As a result it's empty. When the "Return to Site" link is selected DNN works as expected.

To work around the problem code has been added to ErrorPage.aspx to redirect automatically.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? What could have changed in 5.06 that would cause the ErrorPage.aspx to be displayed without an exception having been generated?

Any ideas appreciated.

Thank you,

James

Chris,

The http://example.com portal alias was working correctly. The upgrade was applied and http://example.com displayed the ErrorPage.aspx page. No other changes have been made to the environment.

Looking at the code in the ErrorPage.aspx the page is being displayed without any "status" query string, or any exception being available to display. As a result the Catch block is being executed, which as the comments say should never happen. All I've done as a work around is change the code in the catch block to perform a redirect to http://example.com. However it's not a robust long term solution.

Thank for your help,

James

Bill,

The UsePortNumber element was commented out. I've removed the comments and set it to true. It has not made any difference.

The PortalAlias table contains the same entries as it did before the upgrade but also contains many more new entries that seem to have been added automatically.

Thank you,

James
