Problems with DNN installation

I have edited my web.config file, I think correctly, to point to my database and uploaded it. The files are mostly in a subdirectory of root but when I navigate to the url I get UnderConstruction.htm. I get a series of different errors depending on which directory I put the web.config file in (or both root and sub, where it is at the moment). Coult someone please clarify the site structure for me.

Many thanks in advance.

NB. I may not be able to get back to this immediately.

you need to provide Security Read/Write permissions to ASPNet users on the folder where your DNN setup/install is staying.

Addtionally provide access to Network service and Network users also if using Win2000/Win2003

Hi,

but if I'm with a hosting provider (discountasp.net), isn't this already set up?

let me check by installing at my end
Hi Juliamac,
sorry for the last post. The issue you are facing is because of Database issue only.

you need to check the database path given in web.config .

Remeber that you have to provide string at two places in web.config

like below


 <connectionStrings>
    <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express -->
    <add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=IBM001;Initial Catalog=mymuzednn09;User ID=dn2_user;Password=cdm" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
    <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005
    <add
      name="SiteSqlServer"
      connectionString="Server=(local);Database=DotNetNuke;uid=;pwd=;"
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
   -->
  </connectionStrings>
  <appSettings>
    <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules   -->
    <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=IBM001;Initial Catalog=mymuzednn09;User ID=dn2_user;Password=cdm" />
    <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules
    <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=(local);Database=DotNetNuke;uid=;pwd=;"/>
    -->

Open in new window

I have entered mine for 2000/2005 as follows:

<connectionStrings>
            <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express -->
            <add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;"
              providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
      
    <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005
    <add
      name="SiteSqlServer"
      connectionString="Server=(server_name);Database=database_name;uid=username;pwd=password;"
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
   -->
      </connectionStrings>
      <appSettings>
            <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules   -->
            <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;"/>
            <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules
            <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server(server_name);Database=database_name;uid=username;pwd=password;"/>
I'm assuming this is OK, as there is no option for 2008, which is what I'm using.

Thanks
Please add the setting as give below

The settings you are using old style.

Dnn has many such issues. It some times doesn't work with that.

Also please make sure that the database server your are entering is reachable
Means has the complete path to the database you are connecting.


<connectionStrings>
<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=ServerAddress/ServerName;Initial Catalog=database_name;User ID=username;Password=password;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
 </connectionStrings>
 
<appSettings>
    <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules   -->
    <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=ServerAddress/ServerName;Initial Catalog= database_name;User ID= username;Password= password;" />
   </appSettings>

Open in new window

How can I determine the path?
This info is provided by your Web hosting provider from whom you are getting the Database service and hosting service(if both from same)
Hmm...I thought you might say that, I've emailed them and am waiting on a reply - hopefully it won't take too long!
I think it would be the address(url) you are using to reach to the login page of the Database on the Database hosting server
I'm using sqlwabadmin, so this is the only address I get (if I've understood you).
At the moment I have 2 identical versions of my web.config file, one in the root of the project and one in the DNN subfolder - is this OK?
Also, where should the other config files compression.config  and DotNetNuke.config  reside within the structure? I've moved them around in an attempt to solve errors and am now not sure where they should be? Could this be causing problems?
All these files should lie in DNN base folder with web.config only.

Also the data source is the complete address of the Database.

I think you are using the same hosting provider service for database and webhosting.

The database address is provided the data service provider.

They must have given you some url for login to Database


  1. You don't need to edit your web.config when first time installing DotNetNuke. DotNetNuke will start a installation wizard.
  2. If you using a hosting company services for your site, make sure they provide you with Database User Name and Password, since you cannot add "Network Services" users into your Database, or Asp.Net user for Win XP.
As I see on your Web.Config, your Database configuration is using SQL Express and not SQL 2005, and you set Integrated Security to true (this only work if Network Services or Asp.Net is an owner of Database), For now, specific your User Name and Password.

Let me know if this not working.
Well i don't have much info about sqlwabadmin. But the only thing i know is that for in web.config we need to give the Database path. Like if i am having my database on the  ip address 123.123.123.123 then i have to add 123.123.123.123/databaename in web.config
Hi,
apologies for my delay, I'm having to work on something else at the same time!

sorry, what do you mean by web.config only?

Hosts just sent me this test url: http://leteuropeeu.eweb103.discountasp.net/testdasp.asp 
how would I fit that in?

thanks
Sorry, my confusion. They had provided me a test file residing at that url to show me how to connect:

I downloaded the file which was as follows:

<%
Dim cnnSimple  ' ADO connection
Dim rstSimple  ' ADO recordset
Set cnnSimple = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
' DSNLess
cnnSimple.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=servername;" _
            & "Initial Catalog=databasename;User Id=username;Password=password;" _
            & "Connect Timeout=15;Network Library=dbmssocn;"
Set rstSimple = cnnSimple.Execute("SELECT * FROM sysfiles")
%>
<P> Connecting to SQL DB with DSNless connection </P>
<table border="1">
<%
Do While Not rstSimple.EOF
            %>
            <tr>
                        <td><%= rstSimple.Fields(1).Value %></td>
                        <td><%= rstSimple.Fields(2).Value %></td>
            </tr>
            <%
            rstSimple.MoveNext
Loop
%>
</table>
<%
rstSimple.Close
Set rstSimple = Nothing
cnnSimple.Close
Set cnnSimple = Nothing
%>

I understand how this is working, but don't understand how I tie this in with my DNN files?? It is in the root directory - should my default.aspx (or whatever the home page is) DNN file be in the root?

Thanks again
If you are new in DNN, try this :
http://tinyurl.com/ab7caz
hmm
well the string

Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=servername;" _
            & "Initial Catalog=databasename;User Id=username;Password=password;" _
            & "Connect Timeout=15;Network Library=dbmssocn;"

gives good info now.

it shows that the address "servername" will be the correct.

you can use this string in DNN

Data Source=servername;" _
            & "Initial Catalog=databasename;User Id=username;Password=password;"


Also The What do you mean by
"I understand how this is working, but don't understand how I tie this in with my DNN files?? It is in the root directory - should my default.aspx (or whatever the home page is) DNN file be in the root?"

Yes the Default.aspx always stays in root folder of dnn and it is there by default also.
How do I fit that string into the web.config file though? The syntax is different?

I mean that my hosts advise you create a subdirectory, so I have put the DNN folder within another. The test url is in the root, outside that folder, but my default.aspx is within the DNN files folder. Does that make sense?
Thanks for the web link, I will go and have a read...before I give up!!! It MUST be possible....
I just looked back and saw that you already told me how to fit it in - sorry. I already had those details tjough and it still doesn't work?
by root directory i mean that the directory where you DNN installation lie
yes the link provided by erw13n will be usefull for you to solve the issue
OK, have I installed it into the wrong directory?

I have Project - installation (I did have web.config here but deleted it)
           DNN    - contains DNN folder with all the files including web.config

Should my install be in DNN?
i am attaching an image which shows all the files and folder which should be there in base directory on DNN
dnn.png
This is where I have my web.config, but all these files are within one folder, which is within another folder, which is where I installed DNN.
I've moved it out of that folder (up one level) and now I ge this error allowDefinition='MachineToApplication'
again!
you are using wrong path to access the site.

you should type the virtual directory address also

like if your virtual directory name is DNNAPP

then according to your URL you should surf on

http://leteuropeeu.eweb103.discountasp.net/DNNAPP

ALSO I check your website you are using the DotNetNuke Source for installation

you should use DotNetNuke installation not the source.


Hi amar31282,

I'm really appreciative of all your help, and I know this is a pain...but I really don't understand what you mean by
'DotNetNuke installation not the source.'

Also, I haven't created a virtual directory, just a subdirectory, which I've now removed??
Please correct me if I was wrong.
Do you create a DNN folder under wwwroot?
exp:     wwwroot/DNN/

or you put all files under wwwroot?

Cause if you create a new DNN folder under wwwroot, then you should made this is as SubDomain.
Hi erw13n,

I set this up with discountasp and understood it all to be fairly qutomated, their directions don't advise you to create a virtual directory at any point, so I haven't done it, I'm not even sure if I get direct acces to IIS, but will check, as I'm now confused about everything!!!

I simply created a new directory on their server in my domain space via filezilla and uploaded my extracted DNN folder to that directory...
What amar31282 say was right.
You were using DotNetNuke with Source Code, where this was use for Development and modify DotNetNuke Library.
Don't use this if you were never had experience with DotNetNuke.

Go to DNN site, and download the "DotNetNuke v 4.x/5.x Install" version.
Use this one, and follow step by step of link I gave to you.
I get you now, OK. Do I have to delete all the files/recreate the database to start again?
Yes Please read it carefully

if you have downloaded the source and uploaded it then it is ok

If not then do this

go to DotNetNuke_Community_04.09.02_Source/Website/

according to your location on internet.

Now cut all the files and folders from there and paste then at
your root address
i.e. http://leteuropeeu.eweb103.discountasp.net

Remove all the web.config or any other files from the root before pasting.

then change the web.config file for the database setting.

and try to surf it should work fine
Hi,

sorry, I'm so close now, I don't want to stuff this up further...can I just clarify....
1.Do you mean yes I have to delete everything - existing files (how can I still use the 'source' files if this is the case?) and database.
2.I can use the 'source' installation that I have previously downloaded and uploaded to the server?
3.I navigate to http://DotNetNuke_Community_04.09.02_Source/leteuropeeu.eweb103.discountasp.net

Thanks again, much appreciated
1. Ah you are misunderstanding me. By delete i means to say that you have to paste the contents of website folder at root.
you can do this by first just cut and paste into some temp folder on root and then delete everything except Temp folder and after deletion cut and paste the contents of Temp folder to root and delete the Temp folder afterwards.

2. yes you can use the source but from the website folder content. Actually source also have installation files + the solution files.

3. I don't understand what are you saying.

I think you are asking this

i said go to
DotNetNuke_Community_04.09.02_Source/Website/  
in ftp where you are uploading the files and copy contents of website folder
Hi,

I've tried this (along with your patience, I know) and no joy.

I now have my root folder and a website folder within it. I navigated to
http://leteuropeeu.eweb103.discountasp.net/Website/
and still see the same error.

I know how much time you've put into helping me and am more than happy to award the points , but just mloathe to close the question before I solve it.

Let me know if you feel you've had enough here!

Thanks
you need to move the contents of website to root.

i.e. where testdasp.asp is lying.
Hi,

I've done this...back to the underconstruction error....
have you corrected your web.config again or not
the upload wasn't completed , I'll try again
Progress??

'This site is currently Unavailable
Please check back later' but I do have the DNN logo appearing and no error!!!!
please check the database string again. I am getting error of data not accessible.
Check both strings
I have just refreshed the page and got this
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
The server info entered is the same as the test page that connects OK.
Well the issue is only because of database connection can you post the web.config connection string and appsettings part
Please provide the data source name as original . you can remove the user name and password


before that just a long shot

please go to install folder in root and delete UnderConstruction.htm
then check again
it was a long shot but i think it worked

please check this link it is starting the installation. Not sure will complete because of database issues.

Hi,

here's the code:

 <add
      name="SiteSqlServer"
      connectionString="Server=(ESQL2k801.discountasp.net);Database=SQL2008_607523_leteuropeeu;uid=username;pwd=password;"
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
   -->
      </connectionStrings>
      <appSettings>
            <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules   -->
            <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;"/>
            <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules
            <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=(ESQL2k801.discountasp.net);Database=SQL2008_607523_leteuropeeu;uid=username;pwd=password;"/>

a search is not returning UnderConstruction.htm, but I'll continue looking

thanks
you have made mistakes in web.config. your key

<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;"/>

is out off comments.

Also where does this Server and Database came from ??

i think you were using these keys

you can send me your web.config by changing its extension and removing the user name and password so that i can correct it. also send the code you got from

host for testdasp.asp file

you can remove user name and password and change extension

Open in new window

well Juliamac i am going to sleep now will continue issue tomorrow
Hey juliamac
you there ??

check this link

http://www.connectionstrings.com/sql-server-2005

Your DotNetNuke is already runs well.

Go to this page, to start new installation :
http://leteuropeeu.eweb103.discountasp.net/install/InstallWizard.aspx

And just follow the step until you were in "Configure Database Connection",
and add this configuration :
1. Select Database : SQL Server 2000/2005 (page will Refresh)
2. Server : [Server Name] i.e. ESQL2k801.discountasp.net
3. Database : [Database Name] i.e. SQL2008_607523_leteuropeeu
4. Integrated Security : Uncheck/False (page will Refresh)
5. Username [UserName]
6. Password : [Password]
7. Run as DB owner : Checked / True
8. Object Qualifier : leave it empty
9. Click on "Test Database Connection" If this show message "Success" then continue to next step.
If it show an error on installation process (never ending process), you should create a new database, and start new installation.
hi juliamac ,
Adding to erw13n it would be better if you choose custom installation when starting the installation.

Thanks both, very much for all this. I've installed it OK, but then receive an 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' on completing the installation.

I will retstart the process with a fresh database.
Hi amar31282,

I've just reread your post and have included the code from my 2 files as you requested.

Hi

Before I get rid of the database, I'm going to try the connection string theory...thanks for the link, but I'm still confused. It seems likely that it is a problem with my web.config. Do I replace:

      connectionString="Server=(ESQL2k801.discountasp.net);Database=SQL2008_607523_leteuropeeu;uid=username;pwd=password;"

with

Data Source=myServerAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;

like this?

connectionString="Data Source=myServerAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;"

Thanks!
Hi Jubliamac
Use this one

Copy this and replace whole contents with your existing web.config.

But please remember if you are going to do a fresh install then you need to delete  the whole old setup of DNN from the server  and then place a new fresh installation there (if you downloaded install then the install folder and if you have source then contents of website folder)
and then just replace this  part of  original web.config.

<connectionStrings>
        <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express -->
        <add
              name="SiteSqlServer"
              connectionString="Data Source=tcp:esql2k801.discountasp.net;Initial Catalog=SQL2008_607523_leteuropeeu;User ID=username;Password=password;Integrated Security=False;"
              providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
        <!--Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005-->
        <!--<add
      name="SiteSqlServer"
      connectionString="Server=(ESQL2k801.discountasp.net);Database=SQL2008_607523_leteuropeeu;uid=username;pwd=password;"
      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />-->

    </connectionStrings>
    <appSettings>
        <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules   -->
        <add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=tcp:esql2k801.discountasp.net;Initial Catalog=SQL2008_607523_leteuropeeu;User ID=username;Password=password;Integrated Security=False;"/>

it is an important step as when you have installed DNN the web.config file is changed

Explaining my last post a little more

Firstly try to replace the whole web.config with the one i provided in code part.

If it works then good.

if not then install the new DNN with the part of web.config(Original) replaced with the one i gave in comment part
Thank you...can I try replacing the web.config file in the current set up first, or do I need to delete it all and start again before I can implement this?
Ah sorry i forgot to mention one thing that if you wanna do new installation then you will need to clean the existing database(if you are using the same database, i hope yes)
by Clean  i mean that you should delete all the tables,views , procedures in the database
yes you should try it first by replacing the whole web.config with the one i just sent you. But before that please tell me that when did you copy this web.config ( which you sent me)

Before completing the installtion
OR
After completing the installtion
After the installation, does that matter?
I'm sorry, I've confused you. I gave the old version that I had locally, as I didn't realise it would change. Do you need the new one too? Sorry!
no i don't need the new one just replace the part i am sending now in the present  web.config at the server.

Replace it carefully

OK, I downloaded the latest version from the server and edited that with the code above, and uploaded it, overwriting that version, but I'm still getting the same error when I refresh the page...
hmm  i think you should install the new one now. Because it is not good to continue the procedure like this.

Just delete all the Files and Folder which are there on the root directory (except the defaults which were lying earlier when you got the server) and also you need to clear the Database. I think that would be a difficult part. If your hosts can do that then it would be good.

after doing both these steps paste the contents of the newly downloaded dnn to server, edit the web.config and then start the installation and let me know the status
I will do that now, thanks again for all your time and help...I'll keep you posted.
before starting the installation send me the web.config you edited for a simple look
Oops, just deleting all the files from the server....here it is though

Open in new window

i am saying about to send me the web.config from the new installation that you have downloaded and that you will edit for connection string . do not forget to remove the user name and password.

Is this that one??
Sorry, doing lots of things at once here, as I'm sure you are too...just about to download it and will post. (Don't worry, I did remove u/name p/wd before!)
Why don't you give Amar a full permission to access you site and ftp account. So he can made it runs well :)

is the longest question I ever see :)
I know thi sis dragging on and all this help is much appreciated...I thought the point of the forum was so that everyone could learn. I'd be annoyed if i was follwong a solution and it dissappeared. Up to you Amar??
We will continue..
Hi,

attached is the new install unedited file. Is that what you meant? I'm waiting on a database clean by my hosts before I can go any further...

Hi Juliamac,

I cannot see any progress yet on server.

Actually i wanted to tell you that i will not be available tomorrow from

2.00AM IST to 2.00PM IST. So if you can start installation before that it would be better
Hi,

no, i'm sorry, i'm still waiting for notification of the database clean out. Thanks v much for the code above and I will definitely let you know ASAP. Re your availability...I'll kick the process off as soon as I hear back from them.

Many thanks
Hi,

The database is ready, so 1 last question, I hope...my hosting providers warn you not to upload files to the root, but to a subdirectory and to create the web application there. Do you recommend this too (I thought this was why I received errors previously or not?)
