Hi all.

2 days ago I had installed a new dnn site (4.8.4). After setting up the skin and configured a few pages everything worked fine (for 24 hours) until yesterday morning when all of a sudden I ended up on a dnn "under construction" page when browsing my site.

Searching this forum for "UnderConstruction" revealed a hint to take a look into the "version" table, et voila, it was empty! Additionally the "objectQualifier" setting within the web.config file was set to blank, instead of "dnn_" as it should be.

I have added one item into the version table (v4.8.4) and fixed the objectQualifier setting and now the page at least displays again. But the page still has a couple of problems, worst thing is that the login page is empty!

As I was still working on the page I don't have a backup of the files and database (of course...).


Question 1: does anyone else experianced this, i.e. a suddenly empty version table ? If so, what else had you to fix to get it back online correctly ?

Question 2: why is there any code within dnn that is triggered at some unkown event to delete the content of the version table ?

 

I am going to wipe everything and start over again. But this leaves me with serious concerns as I am running a number of different DNN sites.

 

Regards, Tom.

There is no code in dotnetnuke that deletes code from the version table, we only write to it and read back the maximum version. If it's empty, the it sounds like something deleted it's data - i'm not sure what this would be. Also we never update the objectqualifier value, only read it, so again this sounds like something else - perhaps your hosting company deleted your content and tried (and unsuccesful) restore?

Hi Cathal,

thanks for your reply. I wouldn't have thought that DN does something like this, but there is another thread describing the exact same phenomenon.

I have already started to wipe the existing DNN installation from the server and re-install everything. So the case isn't answered but closed anyway.

Regards, Tom.
