Hello We are in the process of upgrading to DNN 4.3 before we do though a question. What happens to existing module information and settings when we over-write with new release of the module? Will it be a seemless transition?

In the latest release ( DNN 3.3 and 4.3 ) we have included the following packages: Source, Install, Upgrade, and Starter Kit ( DNN4 only ). I would like to share some info about these packages:

Source - contains all source code for the core framework. Includes a release.config and development.config file ( nop web.config ). Also includes Install versions of all Modules. If you need source for the modules, you can download them seperately from the download page on the site.

Install - contains just the run-time resources. Includes a web.config file. You should not use this version to upgrade an existing install unless you are very careful - because if you overwrite your previous web.config, you may lose access to your site membership. Includes Install versions of all Modules.

Upgrade - contains just the run-time resources. Includes a release.config and development.config. You can safely use this version for upgrading your site. However there is not automated utility for merging changes in the configuration files. Since there are nodes in the release.config and development.config which are new / required for DNN to function correctly, you will need to manually merge the applicable sections. This not a new step - it has been a requirement for any DNN upgrade all way back to version 1.0.0. Does not include any Module packages. The reasoning is that users do not always want to upgrade their modules when they upgrade the core.

In general, the standard method for dealing with config upgrades is to rename your existing web.config to web.config.backup. Rename the release.config to web.config. Then manually copy the following settings from the old web.config.backup to the new web.config file:

   
   
   

you may also want to move your objectQualifier specification ( if you have one in your old web.config.backup )

   
     
       
        objectQualifier="" databaseOwner="dbo" />
     
   

Starter Kit - contains just the run-time resources. Includes a web.config file. This version is designed for software development activities. Contains Install versions of all Modules.

When I run the DotNetNuke Starter Kit 4.3.3, it says it's missing the file ftb.insertsmiley.aspx.resx, it still builds and runs, but when I use the starter kit to add starter module code, it begins to complain further about missing files and refuses to build.

 

What's going on?

Hi, I just did an upgrade from 3.2 to 3.3 and for some reason, my site won't accept any logins at all.  I was originally operating under an active directory login scheme with the regular host/host and admin/admin since this was still in testing and not under any production environment.  But now it seems, with the upgrade, that I can't login in at all, not with host/host, admin/admin or anything in the active directory. 

Is this an issue with the new release or is there just something I'm missing? 

Thanks,

Gerald
