port no changed 80 to 8000.

I think that you need to add the port number to the site's portalalias.

dear friend thank u very much

can u explain me where i want to change this.
what i did is right click webname-> properties->click website tab-->tcp poprt changed as 8000

in webconfig i uncommented !-- set UsePortNumber to true to preserve the port number if you're using a port number other than 80 (the standard)..

You also need to go to the Host Settings page in DotNetNuke and modify the entry in the Portal Alias section. It's at the bottom of the page.

For an external name, I think that you will also have to specify the port in IIS.

i couldnt understand.can u tell me one example.bse i am a beginner in this field...

Open the Default Web Site or your web site in IIS and find the entry for TCP Port. Set that to the port number that you want to use.

i changed default web site port no to 8000.but same error is coming.
i am using windows server 2003
