Hi James, 

Could you screengrab or put the whole exception into a word doc and email it to me.

Also - is there a workflow log file in your /App_Data folder?

My email is df at darren-ferguson dot com

Do you get the same effect in the developer section?

Thanks! 

Also - if possible could you send me your web.config file?

Thanks.

Same in the Developer section - all info sent to your email as requested!

Thanks,

James

Hi James, I've sent you an email - it looks like the installer only part completed. Did you get any errors during the installation?

Darren,

I got an error at the end saying there were duplicate sections in web.config (related to log4j - possibly already there from a previous 3rd party package install?) so I removed them to resolve the error - I guess it's possible that some steps after that then didn't execute...

Haven't received an email as yet - could there be an attachment our server didn't like?

Thanks,

James

Hi James,

I'd sent you the web.config from a working install so i guess it got blocked.

Do you have three workflow tables in your DB? beginning with the word "workflow"

If so we can probably just correct your web.config - otherwise we'll probably need to re-run the installer.

Darren,

I uninstalled the package, then removed the following lines from web.config, then re-installed without error this time (due to no duplicate web.config entries). However, I still get the above dashboard errors (but do have the 3 workflow SQL tables). Please could you therefore re-send the working web.config as a txt file and I'll compare the final result?

<section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net, Version=1.2.10.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=1b44e1d426115821" />

Thanks,

Hi James,

In My mail i'd renamed it to web.txt so it seems your mail filter is scanning for XML and removing

I uploaded it to http://static.darren-ferguson.com/web.txt for you.

The additional config should be:

in //configuration/configSections

<section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net, Version=1.2.10.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=1b44e1d426115821" />

<sectionGroup name="spring">

      <section name="context" type="Spring.Context.Support.WebContextHandler, Spring.Web" />

</sectionGroup>

In  //configuration

<spring>

    <context configSource="config\fmworkflow\workflow.spring.config" />

</spring>

In //configuration/appSettings

<add key="log4net.Config" value="config\fmworkflow\Log4Net.config" />

In //configuration/connectionStrings

    <add name="WorkflowConnection" connectionString="Server=...;Database=workflow;User ID=....;Password=.....;Trusted_Connection=False;" 

providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

Note: this should match the connection string of your Umbraco DB.

In //configuration/system.web/httpModules

<add name="Spring" type="Spring.Context.Support.WebSupportModule, Spring.Web" />

Darren,

Yes, once I manually added the connectionString and the Spring httpModules, httpHandlers, webServer/modules and webServer/handlers it's now loading the dashboard fine.

Thanks for your help.

James
