Sounds like some files are missing. Did all of the App_Plugins files get copied across to the webserver? What about Converge.dll?

Hi,

Yes they appear to have but will recheck, they are all in the published folder from VS. I'll do a file compare to make sure nothing got corrupted

Where should the App_Plugins folder be on the server?

I am seeing this in the umbraco logs

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: No such file exists /App_Plugins/Converge/backoffice/mergeFromRemote/edit.controller.js?v=4 (mapped from /App_Plugins/Converge/backoffice/mergeFromRemote/edit.controller.js?v=4)
File name: '/App_Plugins/Converge/backoffice/mergeFromRemote/edit.controller.js?v=4'

Hopefully someone else will be able to help with that as I'm not sure. Don't have a V9 server installation.

That line comes from the package.manifest file, which I suspect may need updating. It, itself, lives under App_Plugins, so the files are obviously somewhere.

Ok thanks, I'll have a fiddle around see if I can work out what is going on.

Hi Stuart,

Just to let you know the problem appears to be related to the first error '/sb/backoffice script' in the list which is an Umbraco error rather than a converge error, this Umbraco error is basically preventing it from loading the converge controller. Will keep digging to see if I can figure out what is causing it.

Hi Stuart,

It would seem that the error occurs when installing Converge (which works perfectly ok in VS) and then pushing published changes to IIS website (it pushes the dll and App_Plugins folders).

The error then appears as soon as you load the /umbraco back-office url. Uninstalling converge reverts behavior back to normal.

Is there anything in the log file for that 500 error?

This error, and several others similar but different files.

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: No such file exists /App_Plugins/Converge/backoffice/mergeFromRemote/edit.controller.css (mapped from /App_Plugins/Converge/backoffice/mergeFromRemote/edit.controller.css)
File name: '/App_Plugins/Converge/backoffice/mergeFromRemote/edit.controller.css'

I can however browse to that file. But for some reason the backoffice is unable to.

Strange. A permission problem maybe?

That was my first thought, but I gave full access to every user it is likely to be and it made no difference, it's a very odd one.

I will try installing a dummy dashboard and controller and see what happens when I publish that.

I have discovered the cause of the problem.

The converge dashboard only works if running the site in debug mode, if you set debug to false then those errors start appearing and the dashboard doesn't work.

Good work Huw! I'll see if I can take a look at what's causing that. May be a while I'm afraid as I'm a bit busy at the moment.

is working on a reply...
