System.TimeoutException: Cannot acquire MainDom

Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 9

Hi Everyone,

I see this issue is not new but I was unable to find something that works. Any help is appreciated.

I am running V13.2.2. with db on SQL Express and its working fine on my development system. When I deployed the site on the server (IIS) using Publish from Visual Studio. I am getting:

Unhandled exception. System.TimeoutException: Cannot acquire MainDom

I'm getting a similar error too. I searched all over the internet but couldn't find anything. I am using Umbraco version 13.2.2. Please can you help?

I am running the exact same settup en getting the same error umbraco: 13.1.1 Db: SQLSERVEREXPRESS IIS: 10.0.19041.1

The site runs fine from Visual studio but when i publish to my win11 server this error popps up. I thought it might be an connection string issue butt no changes to the connection string affects the error in any way so i think it triggers before reaching out to the DB My publish settings are as follows enter image description here

I figured out the issue. The IIS_IUSRS user is missing permissions folder where the files are located.

Refference: https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/fundamentals/setup/server-setup/permissions I gave mine all permissions and it solved the issue enter image description here
