I've been running DNN fine on one of my dedicated servers for years. I just upgraded to a new machine. I moved over all of the files, folders, databases, etc. from the drive on the old server to the new one and confirmed that everything made it fine. The names of the machine, folders and everything else is identical on the new box to the old one. All of my non-DNN sites can up fine but none of my DNN sites. I've followed all of the installation instructions on filder permissions from the installation doc. Yet, all of my DNN sites are simply displaying the contents of Default.aspx, as follows. Lots of exposure with all my DNN sites down. Any ideas?

Thanks, John

Are you sure you've configured IIS so that your dnn installation is a web application.  Meaning, did you create a virtual directory that points to your dnn installation?

I found an obscure entry somewhere that helped me resolve this issue. I had a problem with IIS and had to uninstall and reinstall it. Once you do so, the DotNet framework sometimes doesn't work correctly. So, after reinstalling IIS, you need to uninstall and reinstall the DotNet 2.0 framework (and service packs). Once I did that and reassigned all of the sites to the new installation of the 2.0 framework, everything came up just fine.

Thanks, John

I'm looking to do a migration too and believe something has to be done in the web.config because the machineKey is generated by referencing the machine.config (I believe). I am interested as to see what other experienced migrator have to say on this subject.

It looks like your IIS isn't configured to serve ASPX pages.  You will want to ensure that IIS is registered on your server.

Regarding the machine key, as long as the value is in your web.config file you are set to go moving to a different server!
