After upgrading the site from 4.8.x to 5.1.1 (upgrade was fine - no errors), I get this error after logging in as host. Occurs on all portals in the site.

Win 08 64bit, SQL 2005, 3.5 framework installed (I'm not positive SP1 was installed -- is there an easy way to determine this?)

Thanks for any help!

Today I upgraded my test site from 04.08.02 to 05.01.02 -- the upgrade was successful. However, I still get the error message above after loging in.

I changed the web.config entry below -- from 0 to 100, and that appears to resolve my problem (no more error messages)...

<add key="PersistentCookieTimeout" value="100" />
