So i've just run through the upgrade instructions for Contour.. downloaded the 1.1.3 upgrade zip file, extracted contents to root of site, overwrote all files etc.
Restarted app pool... logged back in to Umbraco, and everything is messed up. Namely the tree view as follows:
Content section just shows the content node, nothing under it;
same for media.
Users loads the tree for Axenda disable properties section;
settings loads the 301 url tracker section tree;
Developer loads nodes for third party items only - no core umbraco nodes load;
members loads only the base node
Contour loads just the base node, with an error on the dashboard Could not load control '/umbraco/plugins/umbracocontour/formsdashboard.ascx'.
Contour form on the front end throws this error: Error creating control (/usercontrols/umbracoContour/RenderForm.ascx). Maybe file doesn't exists or the usercontrol has a cache directive, which is not allowed! See the tracestack for more information!
What i've done to try fix it:
restarted the app pool many times
restarted the website
reset all permissions (full permissions to network service on entire service, and forced override of children... dont worry its just a dev environment)
Checked the umbraco logs... no errors logged there
Any ideas what went wrong? Really wishing i'd checked my previous code changes into source control before running this upgrade. ugh.
Thanks
Greg
btw, i'm running Umbraco 4.5.1 on IIS7 Windows 7 x64. Frontend site works fine.
Sounds like what happens when you don't "unblock" the zip file before unzipping with the built-in Windows zip feature. You can either "unblock" the zip file (right-click, properties on the .zip file) first, or use a better zip tool such as WinZip, WinRAR, 7Zip, anything but the lousy built-in zip capabilities in Windows.
Beyond that, triple-check your file permissions to be sure the application pool owner has the correct perms.
Definitely copied all the files over.. i know because i extracted them to a temp folder, then moved them to the site root... told to merge and overwrite for all folders and files. temp folder was empty after.
have just extracted the archive directly to the site root... overwrote all files... no change. its fubarred :(
Upgrade to 1.1.3 broke my site. Please Help :(

Copy the files from the update again to be sure that everything is up to date..

@Greg, are you sure you copied everything from the update zip to the correct location?

Let us know what you find out.

Doug, mate, you're an absolute genius!
That's the first i've ever heard of this 'unblock' feature... installing 7zip right away.
Thank you so much - you're a champion! Karma coming your way :)
