| Hello,
I have done plenty of upgrade process these last years/months, without any problem. And today, I tried to migrate from 4.8.2 to 4.8.3
Not so easy, I have the same error message, always and always.... Any idea ??
DotNetNuke Configuration Error
Domain Name "mydomain.com/Install" Does Not Exist In The Database
DotNetNuke supports multiple portals from a single database/codebase. It accomplishes this by converting the URL of the client browser Request to a valid PortalID in the Portals database table. The following steps describe the process:
Web Server Processing
When a web server receives a Request from a client browser, it compares the file name extension on the target URL resource to its Application Extension Mappings defined in IIS.
Based on the corresponding match, IIS then sends the Request to the defined Executable Path ( aspnet_asapi.dll in the case of ASP.NET Requests ).
The aspnet_isapi.dll engine processes the Request in an ordered series of events beginning with Application_BeginRequest.
Application_BeginRequest ( Common.Globals.asax.vb )
The Request URL is parsed based on the "/" character
A Domain Name is constructed using each of the relevant parsed URL segments.
Examples:
URL: http://www.domain.com/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com
URL: http://xxx.xx.xx.xxx/default.aspx = Domain Name: xxx.xx.xx.xxx
URL: http://localhost/DotNetNuke/default.aspx = Domain Name: localhost/DotNetNuke
URL: http://www.domain.com/virtualdirectory/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com/virtualdirectory
URL: http://www.domain.com/directory/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com/directory
Using the Domain Name, the application queries the database ( Portals table - PortalAlias field ) to locate a matching record.
Note: If there are multiple URLs which correspond to the same portal then the PortalAlias field must contain each valid Domain Name in a comma seperated list.
Example:
URL: http://localhost/DotNetNuke/default.aspx
URL: http://MACHINENAME/DotNetNuke/default.aspx
URL: http://xxx.xx.xx.xxx/DotNetNuke/default.aspx
PortalAlias: localhost/DotNetNuke,MACHINENAME/DotNetNuke,xxx.xx.xx.xxx/DotNetNuke
Note: If you are installing the application to a remote server you must modify the PortalAlias field value for the default record in the Portals table according to the rules defined above.
That's strange, after browsing my website, it is suddenly waked up (auto upgrade is set to false). And if I check host settings, it is indicated 4.8.3
Any idea, advice ??? I tried several times !!!

| DV,
make sure that in the portalalias table that you do not have a / after the URL. That is typically the cause of the issue. | |

| Thanks Mitchel for your advice, it is much appreciated.
I have checked my portalalias table, I do not have any / after the URL (only / with: localhost/myfolder - but not at the end)
Any other idea ? How could I know if the version is correctly migrated ? When going into host settings, I see 4.8.3
Is it a good idea to continue like that or should I revert back to 4.8.2
What are the security problems, are they very dangerous or not ???

| If you have the site up and running, and it is no longer giving errors you should be just fine.
I would triple check your event log to make sure that you don't have any recurring errors.
The security issues are something that you want to take seriously, and upgrading is STRONGLY recommended. | |

| Yes, sure. But I tried at least 10 times to do the upgrade process. Each time I have the same error...
But each time, if I go to the URL (without install/...) the web is up and running, and I see 4.8.3 in the host settings. There is no error in the event log viewer. But how could I know if everything went well ??? That's strange, isn't it ?
I made plenty of other upgrade without any problem. This is the first time I encounter this problem... I do not know if it is a good idea to stay with this 4.8.3 and the installation which maybe have not launched the correct install process or script.
How could I know if all the script have been done well ??

| DV,
4.8.3 didn't really have many script updates, if any at all.
The only way that the version via the host settings page is updated is if the scripts executed successfully. Therefore you can be assured that the upgrade did actually occur....even though you encountered the error. | |

| Problem solved finally. It was a bug with Webhost4life and file permission (folder was corrupted - I had this idea to do the upgrade into another folder, and it works...)
