    First time user of Umbraco. Dashboard errors after the install...

    I'm a sys adminstrator, trying to set up Umbraco for a user of mine.  Windows 2008, .Net 4 and Umbraco 4.7.  I installed it from the Microsoft web platform installer.  Everything went fine.  It was placed in the wwwroot folder.  I aslo set the permissions based on wiki.  I configured it, installed a starter kit and created an admin account and installed the simple starter size.  Then once I logged in, it threw errors so basically none of dashboard items was showing up.  Please help if you have any sugguestion to fix it.

    did the installation finish successfully?

    Verify the usercontrols exist.

    You can always edit the Dashboard.config and remove the references.

    The controls are only helpers for first time users of umbraco.. they point to documentation and tutorials.

    Thanks Daniel.  I think the installation was successful.  I went through the following steps.  I found the usercontrols folder and it is empty. 

    • 1 - Welcome 
    • 2 - License 
    • 3 - Database 
    • 4 - Create User 
    • 5 - Starter Kit 
    • 6 - You’re Done

    I also tried to edit the Dashboard.config file in case the file location wasn't correct but the change was never taken.  I restarted the site, IIS even the server.  Don't know what else to do.  How to make it effective?

    I got the same on initial install. Change the paths stored in Dashboard.config: add "/umbraco" to the front.

    Example

    Before: /umbraco/dashboard/settingsdashboardintro.ascx

    After: /umbraco/umbraco/dashboard/settingsdashboardintro.ascx

    That fixed it for me.

    For Matt Durr,

    Then you may need to fix up all of the images path as well? 

    Such as 

    Before:  <img src="/umbraco/dashboard/images/logo32x32.png" alt="Umbraco" class="dashboardIcon" />

    After:  <img src="/umbraco/umbraco/dashboard/images/logo32x32.png" alt="Umbraco" class="dashboardIcon" />

    This issue seems weird to me, the whole installation process is ok but this issue just bug me a lot, can someone please explain why I have to modify the path to point to the /umbraco/umbraco folder please? Thanks.
