I upgraded from 4.5.3 to 4.7 - all went well until I tried to log in as the host. I seem to longer exist - won't let me log in using the HOST OR ADMIN using my UN and PW. I tried registering as a new user - no problem there. The site just can't see my host and admin stuff. Tried the Email Me password and it can't find me. No joy there.

Procedure - used the "Upgrade" zip and did the usual copy and past login codes in the web.config. All others codes seemed to be fine. I totally stuck here on how to get into my site.

Clue anyone?

PS: Why is an Upgrade package available if everyone says don't use it?

I only use the upgrade package for my portal upgrades, I do not use the install packages. The only time I didn't was when I went from 3.x to 4.x with an upgrade.

I have seen the error at random, and on a site with no PNG fix script, no AJAX, no forums, no skin specific js either. As I said, it is very random.

I always use upgrade also and never had any problem, but Im getting this now after apgraded to 4.7, my host file manager and the file sync active in schedule bring this to my events:
