Version Information: Microsoft
.NET Framework Version:1.1.4322.573; ASP.NET Version:1.1.4322.573
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem:
This error has been caused because .NET Framework Version 1.1 has been used, whereas DNN 4.3.0 runs on .NET Framework Version 2.0.
The solution:
To fix this problem you need to install .NET Framework 2.0 on your machine.
After the installation run the Internet Information Services (from Start/Run/ then type %SystemRoot%\system32\inetsrv\iis.msc and then OK).
1. Expand the node and find the virtual directory you have created for this DNN portal.
2. Right click on the virtual directory,
3. Go to
Properties
4. Select the ASP.NET tab. (In the ASP.NET version area the .NET Framework 1.1 should appear.)
5. Change the ASP.NET version to 2.0.
6. Click apply, and OK.
Now, refresh virtual directory, or restart the IIS.
Browse again into your virtual directory or refresh the page.
DNN 4.3.0 should now launch successfully.
