    'jQuery' is undefined - new 4.0.3 install to virtual directory

    I've just installed umbraco 4.0.3 onto a Windows Server 2003 machine, running IIS6 (I followed the steps described at http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/install-umbraco-30-on-windows-vista).

    I've installed it to a virtual directory called umbraco, so needed to make the following changes to web config to accommodate the virtual directory:

    <add key="umbracoReservedUrls" value=",/umbracoTextGen.aspx,"/>
    <add key="umbracoReservedPaths" value=" /umbraco/umbraco/,/umbraco/install"/>
    <add key="umbracoContentXML" value=" /umbraco/data/umbraco.xml"/>
    <add key="umbracoStorageDirectory" value=" /umbraco/data"/>
    <add key="umbracoPath" value=" /umbraco/umbraco"/>

    The install wizard completed successfully (I included Runway plus 3 of the other add-ons offered during the install process).

    When I try to login to umbraco for the first time I get the error below:

    Message: 'jQuery' is undefined
    Line: 14
    Char: 2
    Code: 0
    URI: http://localhost/umbraco/umbraco/js/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.js

    ...followed by a series of javascript errors. The login page then hangs.

    I'm guessing that this may be due to me installing umbraco in a virtual directory, but can anyone advise on how I can fix this?

    Many thanks

    You're right... the virtual directory is a problem. Umbraco must be installed in the root of the site not in a vdir (also noted at the end of the first paragraph on http://umbraco.org/documentation/books/install-umbraco-30-on-windows-vista/install-umbraco-30-files)

    You can either install umbraco in a new site or change the path of the current IIS site to point to the folder that has umbraco in it.

    cheers,
