Hi,
I've recently tried to upgrade from 4.0.3 to 4.3.1 and have failed miserably. Here is my situation.
1) Backed up the website & database
2) I successfully upgraded from 4.0.3 to 4.3.1 by
- Changed web.config to web.confil.old
- Renamed release.config to web.config
- copied machinekeys, connection strings & objectqualifier from web.config.old
3) Launched the site & it went through its upgrade process successfully.
As i went through and checked each page, i noticed that the third party modules UltraPhotoGallery & SimpleTabs were not functioning correctly (object reference errors etc). As a result of these problems, i decided to recovered my database and website.
At this point i cant remember if i went back into the site to see if it had been recovered successfully.
4) I then installed a clean copy of 4.3.1 from source. This was a brand new install into a separate directory off wwwroot\. After going through the install process everything was fine for the new site. I logged in and all was functioning as expected.
5) I then tried to go back to the old site (4.0.3) and got the following error and I just cant get around it.
Server Error in '/AlternateView' Application.
Configuration Error

Q. Does anyone know what this error means?
Q.Where is the 'SiteSqlServer' entry recorded?Q. Is it possible to have 2 instances if DNN (and different versions) running on the same machine accessing 2 different databases on the same DB server?
Any ideas???
Thanks
John
