Hi Allan

What database are you using for your Umbraco installation? It could be an issue with the database being used perhaps.

/Jan

Hi Jan

It's an SQL express database - not sure why that would cause a problem?

Thanks
Allan

Hi Allan

Well not all packages are compatible with CE SQL and MySQL for instance - Therfore I'm interested in knowing about the DB being used. But should work on MSSQL/SQL server express though.

Do you see any error messages in the browser console log or in the /App_Data/Logs file?

/Jan

Pretty sure uBlogsy hasn't been updated to work on Umbraco 7.

@Nicholas

Well according to the package page version 4.0/4.1 should be compatible with v7 :)

And this is the info you get before hitting the installation button in the backoffice

uBlogsy 4 is a blog package for Umbraco 7 and above.

Version compatibility

uBlogsy 2.x - Umbraco 4.7 - 4.11.x

uBlogsy 3.x - Umbraco 6.x

uBlogsy 3.x (webforms version) - Umbraco 6.x

uBlogsy 4.x - Umbraco 7.x

I just gave it a spin on a fresh installation of 7.2.1 running sql ce and the installation completed with success.

So don't know if you perhaps make use of some other 3rd packages that might conflict with it?

/Jan

Thanks Jan

I've tried installing on a fresh installation too, with no other packages, and that's when I get the error.  The only difference I can see is that you tried it on SQL CE.  Would that make a difference?

Allan

Hi Allan

That's really odd - If there should be a difference then I would expect it to be the other way around. That it would not work on CE SQL but MSSQL - I'm pretty sure it should work on MSSQL as well.

Could you try doing a fresh installation of Umbraco using CE SQL and then install Ublogsy on it and see if you get the same behavior?

/Jan

OK - so I just installed a fresh version of Umbraco 7.2.1 successfully with CE.  Then tried installing uBlogsy 4.1 (the version downloaded from the package page and installed as a local package).  Same result, the installer hangs on a blank page when refreshing the browser and the back end is no longer accessible.

In App_Date\Logs the UmbracoTraceLog file shows an error:

2015-02-19 12:56:18,639 [27] ERROR Umbraco.Core.UmbracoApplicationBase - [Thread 34] An unhandled exception occurred

Does this help?  Have I got something wrong somewhere?

Thanks
Allan

Hi Allan

What is your setup like? Are you using virtual directories or something like that?

/Jan

Hi Jan

It's just a standard install as far as I know.  I've been running Umbraco 4.11.10 sites on the same server for ages without issues too...

Thanks
Allan

Could this be related to the Client Dependency update?  I haven't applied the update file yet, but wonder if that's now a standard part of the 7.2.1 release and might be causing the issue?

Hi Allan

Hmmm...then it's really odd - I'm afraid I have no other suggestions...can't figure out why it complains about relative URI's...:-/

/Jan

Hi Allan

As far as I know v7.2.+ was not affected by the security scan...I think it was up til 7.1.9 one needed to patch.

/Jan

Sounds like something very similar is happening with another package too - Newsletter Studio

Same solution as for Newsletter Studio issue worked here - not ideal, because it means reverting to an older Client Dependency dll file...

The same problem appears on a fresh installation in version 7.2.2 :

Is there a planned fix for this problem ?

Thanks

Thanks for your investigations guys.

uBlogsy 4.1.1 (available today) should work with umbraco 7.2+ ... Note that you might need to upgrade to 7.2.4 as it has a fix for client dependency which caused the query string issue in the utagsy manifest file.

is working on a reply...
