Re-publishing site times out, possible encoding issue
My site is only 65 pages yet when I try republishing it the popup windows shows a yellow screen of death with a timeout. Is this normal?
I know that somewhere in my content I've got some dodgy word characters and think it might be related. Whole site is misbehaving due to it and I can't save my XSLT files as they are complaining about the dodgy characters in the data on save.
How to find all the dodgy characters, ideas anyone? I've opened up umbraco.config in text pad which warns me there are dodgy chars but not where they are! Found a few and fixed them but its still complaining...
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Tried that, think I weeded out the dodgy ones. Its still timing out though, 83 pages this time. I am using a remote DB though but running the code locally, wonder if the sheer amount of DB traffic is the cause?
When you say republish? Do you mean the "Republish entire site" option in the context menu for the Content node, or "Republish" on your root need saying republish everything?
I guess that would suggest it is a volume thing then. May be worth hooking something up to see the DB calls being made, and figure out the problem area?

Hi Peter
What is the YSOD you get saying?

Request timed out.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: Request timed out.
@Pete, couldn't you throw the umbraco.config in your browser (may need to rename as .xml) and that should tell you where the dodgey characters are.

Republishing the home node, sorry should have been clearer.
In which case, have you tried breaking it down into several publishes? Republish just the home, then republish each child tree and see if that works?
Matt
It works (but is slow) if I publish just a selection of child nodes. PITA though to have to do it that way and not quite as "Ronseal" as I'd like :(

is working on a reply...
