I followed the starter kit installation instructions. The site seems to have no content and when I try to login to the backoffice a conversion failure exception is thrown. I think that I've done everything right up to step 11 in the documentation.

Thanks for your help.

Umbraco version 4.8.1, ASP.NET 4.0, Windows 7, IIS 7.5

Hi Jeremy

What database do you use? MSSQL?

Did you get any errors when you ran the DB sql script?

Kind regards
Anders

Hi,

I experienced the same error and I'm not using Tea Commerce. As Carsten suggests, it might be a problem with cookies and Chrome:
