After upgrading from DNN 5 to DNN 7 (ASP.net 2.0 to 4.0), my site was broken due to a number of issues... the most recent being a problem with an old skin and container. I updated them and they were quickly working.

BUt at the moment, the site is busted.

I use 5 different 'portals' on one domain, each portal using it's own skin... along with specific users for each portal... I plan on changing this but it will take several weeks to go through the logistics.

I have the following portals:

www.mydomain.com
www.mydomain.com/P1
www.mydomain.com/P2
www.mydomain.com/P3
www.mydomain.com/P4

Long story short is that site navigation urls that worked before the update, no longer work.

Accessing the DNN Admin page doesn't work, Logins, etc... they don't work. But if I turn friendly URLs off, those icons/buttons start to work again.

If I turn OFF friendly URLs in the host settings, things seem to work as expected (except, I have many hardlinks in content that map to friendly URLs that no longer work). It would take me a very long time to go through and fix these friendly URLs that no longer work, not something I want to do at this time. But the reality is, I want human friendly URLs like before:

Right now, when I try to use a menu on the site, it throws a 404 error with the URL like http://www.mydomain.com/P1/.aspx


Any ideas where I might be having the problems?

First, don't post twice.  I'm only answering in one.

Explain your upgrade.  Did you jump from 5 directly to 7?

Any log entries?  Specific examples? Have you tried creating a new one?

I also just did an upgrade from DNN 5 to DNN 7  and human friendly URLs do not work as expected.  If I remove this from the web config then URLs with tabIds will work.  I would prefer to have Human Friendly URLs.  How do I get this to work again?

I have also notice URL issues.  Compared to the latest DNN 6.x.x with DNN 7.x.x the URLs do not display the same out of the box with clean installs.  

DNN 6, you will see the URL displayed as "http://www.whateverdomain.com/Home.aspx

DNN 7, you will see the URL displayed as "http://www.whateverdomain.com/Home/TabId/43/Default.aspx

Why is this?  

I'm starting a new project with a site which has great organic traffic and would need to use the SEO friendly URLs, should I just stay with DNN 6?  Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks,

Chris

this post among  I found on the web ->

 

http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/F...

Indicates that disabling language  on the site would make friendly URLs work correctly.  However, I only have one language package and DNN will not let me disable the default and only language on site.  I decided that the only thing to try was the one checkbox that was checked, "Enable Browser Language Detection"

Friendly URLs are a real necessity for SEO as well as preventing the requirement of recoding a bunch of pages to change the link that button clicks et al target.   

How do I get Human Friendly URLs to work on DNN 7.05?
