    The inner pages of "About Us" Menu are not working when accessing thru a static IP. Pls browse thru this URL http://203.123.181.194:7091/AboutUs.aspx .Inner pages like corporate overview http://203.123.181.194:7091/AboutUs/CorporateOverview.aspx are throwing the following error.
    Server Error in '/' Application.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The resource cannot be found.
    Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.

    Whereas the Inner pages of "Verticals" Menu are working fine. http://203.123.181.194:7091/Verticals/Healthcare.aspx. Pls give a solution as early as possible. The site is hosted on a static IP.

    Actually, the children of Verticals aren't working either.

    My guess is that that problem is related to the non-standard port. There are several places where this could be configured incorrectly.

    1. Check that the port number is defined correctly in your IIS configuration

    2. DotNetNuke has a UsePortNumber key defined in the web.config file. By default it is commented out. Remove the comments.

    3. Make sure that the portalalias table is correct

    There is a short entry in the DotNetNuke Wiki about this. It says ,"If your site require the use of a port other than 80, then setting UsePortNumber to true will tell DotNetNuke to retain the port number and use it to determine the site request. Sites can then add a Portal alias to reflect this setup e.g. mysite.com:8080"

    I also assume that all of your pages are created normally, that you don't have any redirect defined in the pages and that you aren't using a URL rewriter other than what comes with DotNetNuke. If any of those things are present, you'll need to look at all of them.

    What u're referring to is when we host the site on a port different frm 80. I've hosted the site on 80 itself.But i'm also configuring the site on a STATIC IP to access frm the outside world(internet). What changes shuld we do in Portalalias table for this. I've done all the configuration changes u have mentioned but in in vain. The inner pages of a menu are not accessible frm http://203.123.181.194:7091/AboutUs/. I'm not redirecting to a page.

    The links generated by your menu look like this:

    http://203.123.181.194/AboutUs.aspx
    http://203.123.181.194/AboutUs/Corp...rview.aspx

    They do not have the port number. Worse, if you manually add the port number, it still doesn't work.

    I'm fairly certain that one of the things is mentioned is the problem. Without being able to look at how you have things set up, it's hard to diagnose this one.

    Make sure that the UsePortNumber line is uncommented in web.config. And, if you could include your portal alias table, that might help.
