I hope someone can help me get our install upgraded.

Currently running V4.5.5 and have tried to upgrade to both V4.6.2 and V4.7.0 and both are running through the upgrade process and the site comes back up.

However when ever you try to login to the site ( defaults to unauthenticated mode ) I get the error

Could not load the assembly 'DotNetNuke.Authentication.LiveID'. Make sure that it is compiled before accessing the page.

Looking through the forums I found reference to the error and the suggestion to do a Fresh install rather than Upgrade, so used that package as well ( restored folder and database first ) and came up with same error.

So any suggestions as to how to resolve this install problem. Is there anything in the database or web.config I can set so that it won't try to reference LIVEID as not worried about that functionality at present, just want to be on a more current build.

Everything is rolled back to V4.5.5 again, so if tehre is anything I need from a log file I will get on next attempt, or pointer to how to resolve?

Is it viable to do the INSTALL pack with a clean database to ensure it works fine, then replace the database and get it to upgrade it?

Kind Regards,

Andy

I'm actually trying to track this issue down myself. Upgraded a 4.3 site to 4.6.2 with the Install package, installed the authentication providers (twice manually) yet I get this error, unless I go into the Authentication table in DNN and disable the LiveID and OpenID Authentication.

Thanks, that was enough to get the site up and working after the upgrade

Went from 4.5.5 to 4.7.0 and no issues with the scripts process, and LiveID package was shown as being complete.

However on checking I found the provider folder was missing in the BIN folder. I copied the whole folder as is from my test server which had cleanly upgraded ( how/why I don't know ! ) and copied that folder into the live server BIN folder and all seems to be fine now.

If there are any logs that will help anyone work out what did/didn't happen that I can provide more than happy to. Hope not to trip into this issue with any future upgrades.

Thanks for your help again,

Kind Regards,

Andy
