Hello,

I have a "secondary" DNN site that I have neglected for some months.  I went to start working on it and ran into some problems.  First off, my site is running DNN 4.03.05.  (Yes I know this is quite old).  

Here is the problem.  When I try to edit text with the simple HTML editor that comes with DNN I get a long error message.  I am planning on asking my ISP to upgrade my site to 4.9.5.  Should we solve this HTML/Text editor problems first, or do the upgrade?

Below is the details of the error, with my domain removed.  Thanks for your suggestions!

Chip

I would create a backup of your website and install it on your local computer. From there you can try a test upgrade and see if that fixes the problem without potentially causing any problems on your live website:

Hi Lee,

Thanks for the suggestion. It would be a bit difficult for me to install locally due to the configurations/applications of my desktops.

My site's traffic has dropped quite a bit (possibly because other things may be broken too). Based on the error code above, do you think the upgrade could fix it?

Here are my thoughts. Since the site's traffic has dropped, have the ISP upgrade me to 4.9.5 after a complete backup. If the site does not work (which I can tell in an hour or less), have them restore the old version. It would probably take me 4-6 hours to get a PC configured correctly for a local test. If the ISP can undo the upgrade, I could do a "live" test in much less time. What do you think?

it's hard to know if an upgrade would fix the problem, however as long as your hosting provider creates a full backup there is no reason why you cannot test it on your live website.

I just don't like testing things out on a live website incase things go wrong.

For the future I think it will be worth setting up a virtual PC on your computer and from there you can configure a local DotNetNuke installation without it affecting any configurations or applications on your desktop, have a look here:

From the error message, the problem appears to be with the file DesktopModules/HTML/EditHTML.ascx. 

The error message refers to a runat attribute.

So ... you might want to look into the file for runat and look for instances that are not of the forum:

       runat = "server"

If you find something like that, you could try replacing the file with a fresh copy from an install package of 4.3.5. 


Now, I have no idea how this might have happened and not been noticed before.  But if something has happened to that file, that would explain the problem.
