That sounds like you're nearly there. Can you get into the backend and republish all content (right click on the content label at the top of the tree).

Clear all the examine files and umbraco.config files in the app_data and try restarting the solution. Then if it's still happening look at the error log and see if you can narrow it down to certain lines in the template causing issues (most likely around image / content pickers).

Hi Steve, (sorry for calling you Dan)

Just to be sure, is that all the files in the folders under AppData/TEMP/ExaminIndexes as well as AppData/TEMP/Umbraco.config?

Thanks, Alistair

Is this the pertinent bit?

Thing is, abovelogo is a text field.

EDIT: ...and if I fill that text field on the Home page the error disappears, and a new 'is not a valid udi' pops up. So this is happening where I have bits of code that test to see if a field is populated and if it is then it inserts the field but if it isn't it ignores it. The code works on the original site. Why doesn't it work here, do you think?

Cheers, Alistair

Hi Steve,

Version 7.6.3

Couldn't find that property in web.config but it was in umbracoSettings.config. When I changed it from true to false (it is true in the original), the homepage came up, but not showing the logo. However, when I tried to navigate to another page, I got the same error again.

EDIT: it is not true in the original, don't know where I got that idea from!

Just republished everything again to make sure. It doesn't help, I'm afraid.

Hi,

When you posted that I remembered that in an earlier attempt to fix this I had gone in and changed the logo media picker to the newer version, so I went back and changed that back and now I can navigate to the other pages on the site. But the logo still doesn't appear on the home page and now when I go into the back end and click on Home I get a server error saying it can't retrieve data for that node.

Of course. Thanks again.
