I am trying to get this to work on my dev server but have not had any luck. Decided to try the latest version of Contour and downloaded this package: UmbracoContour_3.0.21_update.zip ( I unisntalled previous version because none of the buttons were working and random errors pop up (another form post which no one answered).
I can't install Contour via the Umbraco package Respository because I am behind a firewall and it never can connect. So I have to install via the zip.
Am trying to re-install with this new package, and I get this error:
Could not upload file

I have no idea why it is trying to look on drive E (which is my local drive, I am connected to work computer via RDP and have the drive mapped). I reconnected via RDP and unhooked what I had mapped as an E drive (so currently there is no E drive mapped) and still give this same message ...
Please help, we purchased Contour over a month ago and I still haven't been able to get it to work!
Judging from what you write above about downloading the update.zip I think that's probably the issue since you seem to have uninstalled the previous version and then trying to install the upgrade package. If that must work you should not uninstall the previous version.
So I think you should download this version from the download pageUmbracoContour_3.0.21.zip
Hope I have understood your issue and that this helps :)
Thanks - not sure what I was reading when I read to download the update zip! I jsut tried to install UmbracoContour_3.0.21.zip and now am getting the error below. Under Installed packages 'Umbraco Contour' is now listed, but I have no Contour icon on the bottom left to actually access it. (I can also uninstal it under the installed packages tab, tried this and re-installed to see the same error below)
(I havein my web.config so not sure why it is telling me this)

I am behind a firewall, but the dev server I am installing to is also behind the firewall.
I uninstalled 3.0.21 and tried 3.0.12 (a co-worker said that is what worked for him) and that installed with no errors.
However if I click the 'create' button on the Contour main page, nothing happens (no javascript errors, just nothing). But am able to create using right-click on the Forms folder, so will just move forward working that way.
I actually did install it locally (v 3.0.12) and while it installed OK, I keep getting an error popup - I posted a question here asking for help on it and never got any answer. (http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/56289-Error-popup-when-on-contour-tab). I thought I'd try on the dev server to see if it acted any different. Didn't realize until now that I was using different versions (3.0.12 and 3.0.21).
So far not getting that popup error on the dev server. Keeping fingers crossed it stays that way.
I will uinstall the local 3.0.12 version (since not working anyway) and install the 3.0.21 version and see if the same error on install pops up.
Why should it matter if it is behind a firewall ?
But in the end I might try the manual installation, that might work better for this situation (have to promote qa/production, so might be easier to manage the files)
Not sure if it matters that you're behind a firewall - It's just that I have not had an issue installing Contour 3.0.2.1 myself...so just trying to see if I can figure out why it does nok seem to go flawlessly in your end :)
'mscorlib' was moved in .NET Framework 4.5 and the Contour libraries are compiled on a machine with the 4.5 Framework installed. To get Contour to work install 4.5 on the machine running Umbraco and all will be good.
Just to be clear, all you need to do is install the 4.5 framework, you don't need to run your app pools on it or recompile any of your code to make this work.

Hi Karen
You write that you're behind a firewall...so I take that you're not trying to install Contour locally?
It might be related to the firewall I guess - Could you try setting up a local umbraco installation and see if you can install Contour on it?
/Jan
I am behind a firewall, but the dev server I am installing to is also behind the firewall.
I uninstalled 3.0.21 and tried 3.0.12 (a co-worker said that is what worked for him) and that installed with no errors.

Hi Karen
Ok, think it's probably related to the firewall stuff some way.
It would be nice to know if you get the same problems if you try to install locally.
Crossing my fingers that you succeed installing it as well :)

Hi Jan - just did the manual install locally,, and of course now again ageeting the YSOD error popup I mentioned here: (http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/56289-Error-popup-when-on-contour-tab). No idea what to do about that!
Simon - Well our servers do not have 4.5 Framework installed, and not an option to install it right now. Thanks
is working on a reply...
