Hi Jon

Have you tried putting a trailling slash on the URL ?

http://localhost/Crimson/ ;

Cheers, Nigel

Thanks Nigel - No difference.

So does just http://localhost/ work ?

N

Unhappily not.

So it's site wide... 

Restart your PC ?

http://our.umbraco.org/projects/starter-kits/ublogsy/ublogsy-bugs/22403-New-install-=-No-umbraco-document-matches-the-url-'httpwebsitelocalblog' may be worth reading...

in your web.config -  <add key="umbracoUseDirectoryUrls" value="true" /> 

Yes, it's site wide - the back end control panel works fine, but nothing in the site itself.

I've done a clean install, I've rebooted, I've set umbracoUseDirectoryUrls both ways. Nothing works so far.

I've also gone to 4.11.1 with a clean install - no go.

Right-click on Content and publish everything?

Hi Stephen

Yep - tried that.

I'm beginning to suspect that there's something about a 4.9 database that doesn't play well with 4.10 and 4.11. No idea what or how to track it down.

Thanks for the reply

Jon

On a 4.10 or 4.11 edit ~/config/log4net.config and set <priority value="Debug" /> at the top of the file. Then try to hit http://localhost/ and a few pages. Can you then post the content of ~/App_Data/Logs/UmbracoTraceLog.txt?

Here you go - and thanks

It looks like a template problem - the templates are there and visible on the backend, so I'm not sure how to fix that

No it's not templates-related. See

Means that when we look for a node matching url "/crimson" in the content we find nothing.

What's the content of your umbraco.config file? Can you delete it and restart Umbraco and see if it gets re-created?

umbraco.config does not get recreated.

OK then, this usually means that creation of the XML cache fails because of some invalid XML for one node.

You can hit /Umbraco/dialogs/republish.aspx?xml=true to regenerate the whole XML...

Anything in the umbraco log database table?

I regenerated the xml and loaded it into IE as an xml file - doesn't show any parse errors.

What am I looking for in the log table - there are a couple thousand entries.

when you say you regenerated the xml... does it mean that now umbraco.config is re-created?

In the log table you'd be looking for recent errors / exception traces...

Appreciate the help. Yes, the umbraco.config was regenerated. I changed the extension to xml and loaded it into IE and Firefox. No parse errors showed up.

In the log table, beside the Not Found events, there was an error

id userId NodeId Datestamp logHeader logComment

Can you try to disable the sitemap provider in web.config by removing entirely the whole <siteMap /> element, and try again?

Unfortunately no change.

Running out of ideas ;-(

Can you write down the ID of your root node, say 1234, and request http://localhost/1234 and post the matching part of the log file?

Still no good

From the log it looks like you requested /crimson/1089... can you request /1089 ?

Hi Stephen

The structure is

  - srv
     - default web site
         - crimson

So doing /1089 just gets the default site

But... that's IIS structure... so... ah! You're running in a virtual directory named "crimson" right?

So the root of the website is at /crimson right?

Good morning Stephen,

Correct, except it's not a virtual directory, it's simply an application under the default web site.

I've tried it with a virtual directory and I've tried it with a new clean install on IIS Express on a workstation. Always the same result - the backend comes up fine but I can't browse the website itself.

is working on a reply...
