We received a backup copy of our DNN site version 04.06.02 from our website provider. I have setup a server at our office and restored the database and website to the server. I setup an IIS site on the server and tried starting up the site. I changed the web.config file to the correct SQL server and tested the login for SQL it works. Now when I try to start the website up from an external browser the site tries to start then switches to an external domain address. It keeps going to
http://trianglecompanies.netsam.com/
which was the developer location we used to build the site. Where do I need to look to find this redirect to this external address? I have setup a fresh DotNetNuke site on this same server and it works fine using the same SQL server.

Hello,
Usually before you create a backup you would add a Portal Alias on your live website which would be the link to your localhost installation, therefore when you restore on localhost it will find the localhost install and not redirect to the live website.
To get around this, access your database tables, open the portalalias table
create a new row and add a portal alias for your local install into the HTTPAlias column, eg:
localhost/dnn_523_testinstall
Make sure it has the corect PortalID
Hope this helps, these may also be useful:

Make a copy what is in the portalalias table and then remove all but the localhost entry. Verify that the entries are removed on the Admin, Site Settings page.
If the site redirects after making that change, the problem is in the IIS configuration.

Hi
I am experiencing the same problem. I have two languages setup.
My portalalias table is almost empty. I modified the SQL table to only have the localhost setting. But still the site is redirecting me to the live website.
Where is it getting the link to the live website? Please help

You may have a default alias set in the PortalSettigs table. Look there with SQL Server Management Studio and set any such entries to null. You may need to recycle the App Pool, too.
