Hello,

when I try to create new portal on DNN ver.4.3.0 I am getting following error: "Error creating Portal".

Is this know bug and is there any solution for this?

Thanks,
Oliver

Hi there;

i got the same error while creating the portal.I have tried many time 10+ changing the configuration to different types.My portal gets an object reference instance error.
What i use is; .Net 2.0 and IIS 6 + SQL SERVER 2000 all connectionstrings everything is correct.Installer does every sql job succesfully but when it comes to add the default portal my website thing it gets error.I am curious about to upload and upgrade existing 4.0.2 portal because it does not work efficiently in my localhost

I had no problems creating a new portal on 4.30 - using the starter kit.  It does have an error somewhere in the script - I would assume, since the portal immediately reports a 403 forbidden.  Adding the default.aspx to the new portal folder's document settings in IIS corrected this.

Testing the same on 4.03 version and all works fine - including the default.aspx in the document tab in IIS.  I'd say this is a bug - so check the bug tracker as it may already be known.  Of course this is a new version, so perhaps the team has a reason or process to handle - hopefully they can answer that question. 

[edit] I forgot to add - I only tested adding a child portal, I hope that is what you were doing as well.  I've not had much success creating a parent portal via the add portal form.
