Have you updated the file permissions on the web.config after you copy it over? Give full permissions to Network Service (or other accout depending on OS).

How do I do that? In the web.config? (where?)

Thanks for your reply!

no, in Windows Explorer. Right click on the web.config, Properties and make sure your service account is given full permissions.

You must have full trust on your hosting.

Jay: I have checked that all users (groups) have full permission. The settings are the same for both the new web.config and for the old one which is working.

Petr: Since one web-config is working, can it be an access issues on the host?

Where are you hosting? :-)

I do get similar exception and it seems very little / matured help you get on these forums unfortunately.

I did not sleep all saturday night to install Umbraco 4.0.3 using Windows Web Installer (www.microsoft.com/web

At last manged to get this installed. But during Permissions step I get exception similar to yours saying 'permissions problem on

.\css

.\Data etc.

@ Daniel: I'm hosting at unoeuro.com - but again, should it matter since my previous web.config is working?

I have full trust on the folders - set by unoeuro:

bin
config
css
data
media
umbraco
usercontrols
xslt

@ Sukumarraju: Please let me know, if you find out how you managed to go through the permission step ;-)

@kresten yeah - because you need full trust on the server. I havent tried to install the latest at unoeuro. Which webconfig were you using before?

Tried to give the error to the support at unoeuro? They use to be nice to help out :)

Hi Kresten

Maybe you should ask the support at unoeuro about this issue. I suspect that it might has to with your umbraco not running in an application pool that is set to "integrated" in managed pipeline mode.

As far as I have understood from reading the guidelines for using the web.config for ASP.NET 3.5 the application pool must be set to "integrated" mode - your site is probably runninc in "classic" mode.

To find out I think you'll have to make a support ticket for the nice people a unoeuro :)

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks for your replies! I have posted a support note to my hosting company, and will await their reply.

Hope that helps :-)

Thanks!

Cool - if they reply it could be nice to know if it works @ unoeuro or if it's a big hurdle to install it there.

Hi,

I found out that when changing the trust settings on the host, some changes are made to the web.config as well. I therefore had to add/replace the following section to the 3.5 web.config:

    <!-- Sitemap provider-->
    <siteMap defaultProvider="UmbracoSiteMapProvider" enabled="true">
      <providers>
        <clear />
        <add name="UmbracoSiteMapProvider" type="umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory.UmbracoSiteMapProvider" defaultDescriptionAlias="description" securityTrimmingEnabled="true" />
      </providers>
    </siteMap>
    <trust level="Full" />
  </system.web>

Now the site doesn't crash anymore - But now I can't log in on the umbraco back-end...

Hi Kresten

On a few of my sites I had to modify the UsersMembership provider;

<add name="UsersMembershipProvider" type="umbraco.providers.UsersMembershipProvider" 
enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="false" 
requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" />

and include passwordFormat="Hashed" then I could login to the back-end again;

<add name="UsersMembershipProvider" type="umbraco.providers.UsersMembershipProvider" 
enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="false" 
requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" />

Hope this helps you out.

Cheers

Evan

Hi Evan - Perfect! That did the job. I also use the "UmbracoMembershipProvider", so I added the passwordFormat="Hashed" to that line as well.

So: Here are the steps to make it work (for me at least ;-) :

What I did:

• insert my server pw etc on the "umbracoDbDSN"
• insert a connectionstring
• remove the connectionstring where it says "remove for beta" in order not to have two connectionstrings
• Insert <trust level ="Full" /> on the siteMap provider tag
• Had the host changed to "application pool integrated" - whatever that means...
• Insert passwordFormat="Hashed" on the UserMembershipProvider
• Insert passwordFormat="Hashed" on the UmbracoMembershipProvider (since I use the umbracoMembership package)

This did the job...

Thank you all for you help!!!

Regards

Kresten

I'm getting many errors like... Error adding to SiteMapProvider: System.InvalidOperationException: Multiple nodes with the same URL '/my-folder-list/test-test-(2).aspx' were found. XmlSiteMapProvider requires that sitemap nodes have unique URLs. at System.Web.StaticSiteMapProvider.AddNode(SiteMapNode node, SiteMapNode parentNode) at umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory.UmbracoSiteMapProvider.loadNodes(String parentId, SiteMapNode parentNode)

with this configuraton: 

 <!-- Sitemap provider-->
    <siteMap defaultProvider="UmbracoSiteMapProvider" enabled="true">
      <providers>
        <clear />
        <add name="UmbracoSiteMapProvider" type="umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory.UmbracoSiteMapProvider" defaultDescriptionAlias="description" securityTrimmingEnabled="true" />
      </providers>
    </siteMap>
    <trust level="Full" />
  </system.web>

Some Ideas about that ? 

is working on a reply...
