I am using Umbraco 6 in Visual Studio 2012. I made my project using MVC 4.0 and have been developing my project locally within Visual Studio. I am at a point where I would like to deploy this to my server in IIS 7.5. For some reason after copying the files to my server and seting the site up in IIS, my website will only display a blank white page no matter which Url I put in.
The most puzzling thing, is that I can still get the backend part of Umbraco by using this Url:
umbracodev."enterURL".org/umbraco/
I then get into the backend of Umbraco and can view all of my content pages, templates, etc.
Does anyone know why I would be getting blank pages even though everything appears to be there on the Umbraco backend?
The only thing I can think of is the fact that visual studio 2012 uses IIS express and when deploying to my server I used IIS 7.5

This is the message I get which is quite helpful, although I don't know how I can configure this site so that it points to where the templates are located.
SOLVED! My problem was with publishing from Visual Studio. I initially published the project and moved the published project to IIS. For some reason, this caused a large majority of my files to simply not be there. After moving the files over that weren't "published" everything worked fine!
Thanks for the pointer to look in Logs...Don't know why that wasn't the first thing I did.
Deployed Umbraco to server, Renders blank pages
Hi all,
I am using Umbraco 6 in Visual Studio 2012. I made my project using MVC 4.0 and have been developing my project locally within Visual Studio. I am at a point where I would like to deploy this to my server in IIS 7.5. For some reason after copying the files to my server and seting the site up in IIS, my website will only display a blank white page no matter which Url I put in.

Can you go into App_Data/Logs and see if there is any info in there that will help?
