Please note the commenting out of the <module></module> contents as well as the first line of the <httpmodule></httpmodule> contents is do to a 500.19 iis errror I got that complained that I was duplicating the lines in module node that already existed in httpmodules so hece the need to comment them out in order to set the default web site to the folder I had my application in opposed to simply inetpub/wwwroot.

Without commenting these things out I could not successfully point the default website to this folder.

Cheers,

Bo

Ok Joe and others here is the low down:

I have went through a process of elimination in regards to third party modules as well as DNN specific modules that would not be detrimental to the stability of DNN or the ability to log in successfully deleting modules such as html and all third party modules. In fact here is a list of all the modules I kept after upgrading and backing up files and databases about three times to see if my upgrade errors would cease so here is what I had left:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Authentication
Console
Dashboard
Extensions
File Manager
Host Settings
Languages
Links
Lists
Log Viewer
Map
Portals
Recycle Bin
Scheduler
Search Admin
Search Results
Site Log
Skin Designer
Skins
SQL
Tabs
Users and Roles
Vendors
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Incidentally they did not cease as can be seen from the upgrade log I just last did below and as you can see this time I left the coresitemap in the install folder in the upgrade package just to see if the elimination of most of my modules would at least allow the coresitemap to upgrade successfully if not the config file as well. I also went to the trouble of ensuring that I was using one of DNN's out of the box skins but rewiring the site admin area with a default skin instead of the one I had and to ensure I was only using an out of the box skin in its fullest I changed the name of one of the skins I knew I had not monkeyed with and changed it to the name of the skin I had and deleted the original customized skin just to see if their was per chance something in my skin that caused the failure once I progressed from 5.2.3 but here was the results I got form the test

Upgrade Complete
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you can see the same results I have been getting all along. Now it is interesting to note that like I have stated before I have to turn my pipeline on iis to integrate in order for the upgrade engine to start and to classic to get it to resolve correctly if I fail to do either one of these either the upgrade engine will not fire up or in the latter case not changing it back to classic will render another error. I am telling you this because when I do it in a way that I don't get any iis errrors do to pipeline issues I get no errors in the logs as I cleared the event log before doing the upgrade to 5.3.1 just to ensure that the error that I received were indeed fresh.

Now I also noticed that if I did the upgrade in integrated mode and forgot to change the pipeline back to classic before clicking to go to my site I got an error and when I than changed back to classic pipeline to go to my site I received 4 errors in the error log most of which was page load and one which was scheduler exception I will post them all in the order they came from right above the last logged piece of the upgrade till the last error message the first three are page load errors while again the last is a scheduler excpetion so here we go.

Now the strange thing about this whole concept is according to one of the powerdnn admins the only reason a site would probably need to be run in classic mode is do to thrid party modules or perhaps some legacy providers. I'll have to admit I didn't delete any providers though I did delete most modules and interestingly enough on powerdnn hosting environment they could turn the pipeline to integrated and the same site that would not even show anything on my local windows 7 computer would resolve on their's howbeit with some quirks so there must be something not quite right set up in my windows 7 ultimate as to why it can work at powerdnn and not for me locally but really that is going a bit away from topic here.

To get back on track last thing I did was clear the event log and try once again to install this core sitemap manually jus to make sure I am getting the correct error here as well. Here is what I got even at this stage of the iteration:

Now what is wild about this whole issue Joe is that I have upgraded several clients from iteration to iteration almost flawlessly save maybe a few hiccups do to stability issues which I than simply rolled back to a backup I made before attempting the upgrade but all in all they have never been like this particular one. I think of one in particular that had modules that I knew weren't well formed do to some of the problems that occured with them when moving from DNN 4.x to DNN 5. I had a module developer bandaid it up so it would work in the new framework but suffice it to say I took them all the way to 5.6.3 from like 4.5.x and never ran into such hiccups. True I did upgrade them from 4.0.x to 5.4.2 but even here I didn't follow the suggested path since when I did the upgrade 5.4.4 had not showed up yet.

At any rate I am telling you these things because I guess I am not sure really where to look next or even what else I could look for. Maybe something in one of these schedulars but I don't know. Powerdnn says for $20 they will guarantee a successful upgrade yet it seems like I have exausted almost every possibility except these schedulers myself but I want to keep on the path of discovery so I can be a better troubleshooter when it comes to various DNN errrors.

Thanks for all the help you have been and the further help you might be able to give it is always good to have more than one site of eyes for things like these.

Thanks,

Bo

I think that this is a bit beyond my abilities to debug from afar. I'd recommend that you post some of this information on the appropriate DotNetNuke forums. Hopefully, you'll get some help there.

I agree with your assessment that there is likely something wrong with your Win 7 setup. I'm guessing it is something in the IIS configuration. Perhaps permissions or a user definition. I did some looking around and did find some forum entries at DotNetNuke that referred to specifying the user for the AppPool. Look for blog posts by Chris Hammond that go over installation on Windows 7 and set up your site following his instructions. I believe that Cathal Connolly is the person who was answering questions about install/upgrade problems and the Win 7/IIS configuration issues.

Here is something else that you might want to try: Set up a second installation of this at PowerDNN, install a copy of your site there, and see if you can do that upgrade on the PowerDNN servers. That would tell you if it's your local site or not.

Thank you Joe for all the work you have put into to trying to help me nail this issue down

I'd like to follow up on this privately. You can contact me using the Contact page at patapscorg.com if you like.

ok will do I will get this up and running one way or another I think I am going to do what you suggested use my latest iteration with the bare bones modules and push that up to powerdnn try to upgrade it up there and if it still fails I may have to bite the bullet and have them upgrade me and than tell me exactly what they had to do. If this latest iteration works on their servers than I will definately know it was something on my end how I set up the iis with windows 7. Take care,

Bo

Well Joe and friends just wanted to let you know I have now been in touch with all the dnn outlets I can think of including powerdnn, you guys, dnnhelp and the dotnetnuke community forum. I suggested them to take a look at this thread for in depth details on the topic at hand. Hopefully between them all some conclusion can be made if not then I guess it is start from the ground up in DNN 6

Take Care,

Bo

Hello everyone,

After multiple hours of trying to crack the case of the mysterious upgrading problem I finally hit the issue and was able to get a successful upgrade all the way through to 5.6.3 here is what I discovered.

This problem was multi faceted. What I discovered was that Joe Craig was correct in agreeing that perhaps my iis7 on my local computer was not set up correctly and hence this complicated a resolution.

Now the question is why was it that when I tried to test wether it was my iis7 setup or something else I came to the conclusion it was not my iis7 setup since the same hiccups occured on both my localhost as well as it did on the production server.

Well I discovered it was for the following reason. You see somewhere down the line I don't remember exactly where but somewhere down the line since I moved my installation from ixwebhosting servers and migrated my 2005 to 2008R2 with powerdnn my handlers for iis7 were deleted or missing.

I think this was do to the fact I was having some issues with my dnnnavigational menus after I migrated the site whereby it absolutely wouldn't appear because for some reason it could not find the scriptresource.axd file and hence the javascript postback functionality was failing hence you could not invoke skin objects like login to do any administration work.

Anyway as a result of this issue I believe powerdnn admins in trying to resolve this may have deleted the handlers in my web.config file but I am not 100% sure this happened but what I do know is from the time my menu was fixed to the time I tried to upgrade my site these handlers were gone.

Now back to my development headaches on my localhost. As mentioned earlier in my localhost I was getting these 500.19 duplication errors such as the following:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cannot add duplicate collection entry of type 'add' with unique key attribute 'name' set to 'Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource'
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So the way I resolved this was to simply to comment oout the handlers and modules under the system.webserver section of the config file. I will not delve into deep detail about this process here since I discussed it in detail on the dnn creative magazine as well as on an earlier post here.

The bottom line is because I had to comment out system.webserver info on my localhost to get it to work I thought that these handlers must be what was causing the problem somehow and hence the bizarre responses from both my iis7 as well as powerdnn iis7.

It wasn't until I was told how powerdnn troubleshoots upgrade problems via web.config comparisons from release.config and web.config that was being used in the installation. Once I tried this and looked at the differences and saw handlers in the release.config file where as their was none in my web.config file as you know from earlier comments I pasted them in, compared handler with httphandler and came to the conclusion the only difference between the two was one line seen down below

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This made it possible for the sitecoremap provider and the telerik provider to install successfully however I still was having problems with having to have it in integrated mode to upgrade and classic to view.

Once I realized what the two modes really signified as well as the two sections in the config file called system.webserver and system.web I came to the conclusion the issue was really my site up on my local computer.

Though I didn't know the solution to get rid of this particular server error on my local computer (and still don't) I was pretty sure based on my experimentation that for some odd reason the way it is setup on my system makes iis think that it cannot read the system.webserver content and ignore the system.web content hence in a sense my iis7 seems to only function as a iis6.

I know this because if I swapped my test and commented out the httphandlers found in the system.web section and uncommented out the handlers in the system.webserver section I found that I still got that duplication error for sitecoremap, telerik and other handlers and modules by which the system.webserver and system.web had duplciated lines so that the web.config file could be backwards compatible with iis6.

So this told me that my iis7 on my local windows 7 ultimate system could not properly parse or process the system.webserver stuff but could the system.web stuff. This was the case wether the app-pool was set to integrated pipeline or classic it didn't make much difference when it came to this 500.19 error.

I found a bunch of info on this errors but none of what was talked about seemed to effect my issue. For example many including the iis forum spoke on this issue as resulting in a web.config, or machine.config or global.config now known as applicationhost.config having a duplicate entry that the application root web.config had.

Well in my case this was not the case since the default website and application pointed to the very same folder and their was no web.config file in the inetpub/wwwroot since I deleted it. Further more I tested erasing all content in the machine.config and web.config found in the windows/microsoft.net/[asp.net version folder]/config. I tried bout the 2.0 and the 4.0 folder doing this erasing all content and saving business and did not get the duplicate message to disappear.

When I fooled with the applicationhost.config I got some interaction with the iis messages but nothing that fixed the problem. I got the message to disappear and show just a white screen but that was because I had deleted the global module that dealt with showing error messages on the screen so it wasn't that the duplication problem was fixed just that it couldn't be seen.

So I still don't have an answer to this problem but obviously web hosting farms like powerdnn.com got it right and if anyone from these hosting companies or DNN gurus have any ideas of things I could try on my local system to get this duplication errror and be able to truly simulate the production experience on my local computer that would be just great.

Ok so I got off track a bit point is adding those handlers back on (all of them that was suppose to be there in the first place) and deleting the onyaktech modules I had from a couple years ago did the trick. Apparently the onyaktech modules I believe in particular the onyaktech.library module or the onyaktech.nelsonlinks module was the colprit here because when uninstalling the onyaktech.nelsonlinks module I got errors in this process but it uninstalled with warnings.

In the case of the onyaktech.library module it did uninstall without incident as long as I deleted other onyaktech modules on my system frist as the onyaktech.library module is responsible for being the engine for many of onyaktech modules.

Anyway what happened in the case of the onyaktech.library module uninstall is after a "successful" uninstall with no errors when I clicked on return I got this message concerning the fact that my telerik.web.ui.dll file found in the bin folder was missing. It only went missing after I uninstalled this onyaktech.library module. So I simply found a fresh one of these files from the full install folder of the current DNN version I was on and I was back in business.

Anyway I think that the combination of onayktech modules and handlers was the issue here. The reason for such a length of time is for a long time I was focused solley on modules since that is the first think one thinks of when upgrade issues occur as long as it is a stable upgrade so when I widdled down my site to almost nothing in regards to modules I was shocked to find that my woes in regards to failed upgrades or babied upgrades did not resolve. Only after all this did I explore other potential possibilities and after some back and forth with powerdnn concerning my installation and why it wasn't working properly on their servers I got some guidance in a direction I might be able to take this so that I can discover the answer.

Eventually as you can see I did discover the answer as it relates to this upgrade but still baffled about the answer in regards to a sloppy set up of iis7 on my windows 7 ultimate system that would invoke duplciation errors locally but with powerdnn using the same files and backup does not invoke this. They can't really give me the answer to this secret since they simply utilize plesk control panel to interact with iis and since I don't have plesk on my local computer I have to result to getting to the guts of the iis to find the solution so if any of you can symposize with this problem or have yourself run into this in regards to throwing an error for having the same entries in handlers and moduels under system.webserver found also in httpmodules and httphandlers found in system.web I would appreciate any help I could get from you guys on this score.

Thanks a bundle and hope this solution works for others or at least is a heads up on possible reasons for upgrade failures other than simply modules. What I have learned from this journey is that it is not good to assume a problem on a one track lead as some, like mine was multitrack and knocking one of the two things down was not enough but both of them needed to be discovered and than tackled. This is what I had been doing for a couple of weeks or so now and I am happy to finally bring closure to this experience and hopefully this can be beneficial to someone else so you will not have to go through the same headache I did in regards to certain upgrades.

Like I may have said either here or on dnncreative magazine that most all my upgrades for various clients have been flawless but this one has taken the cake in regards to interesting issues in trying to make it happen successfully to a version that was known to be stable to upgrade to.

Take Care,

Bo

I admire your persistence and congratulate you for getting this done.

If you are interested in handlers and how they fit into DotNetNuke, Peter Donker wrote two very informative blog posts on that subject this week. You'll find them on the DotNetNuke.com site.

Does this mean that you were able to upgrade your full site?

I assume that it also solved the problem that required switching the AppPool aroung?

yes I was and yes it did. Thank you, Thank you also for the heads up on the write up about handlers. I will say that I am still stuck in regards to my localhost and duplicate error in why on my local windows system the iis thinks it has to read the lines in both system.webserver and system.web but at least I could upgrade the production site and get it up to snuff.

Thanks for touching base on the progress of this issue,

Bo

Hello Joe and others,

Just wanted to update you on the resolution I was able to come to with the help of the people at expert exchange in regards to at least successfully getting one site up and running on localhost.

My mind was still focused on how IIS 5 and IIS 6 functioned in that if you wanted to navigate to a specific site whose root was a subfolder like a or b so you could have something like localhost/a or localhost/b you would simply set the website properties home tab to the directory you wanted to be the root than create a virtuall directory with the alias of the name you wanted to come after localhost and than simply give the folder you pointed the virtual directory the correct permissions and you were done with it.

Now in IIS 7 I went through Lee Sykes Tutorial in how to set up a dotnetnuke site in windows 7 using IIS 7.5 but instead of doing a fresh install as he outlined I was trying to work with a site in production by backing it up and simulating it locally on my computer.

Now what I didn't realize when Lee Sykes was doing the tutorial was that he must have had that sub folder he was talking about within the inetpub/wwwroot folder and than pointed the default web site to that folder and navigated to http://localhost opposed to navigating to http://localhost/a.

Because what I was doing was trying to set it up in IIS 7.5 such that I could point the default site to a subfolder either in wwwroot or outside of inetpub and than simply go to that site via localhost/foldername.

I also tried creating an application from the default website and pointing both the default website and application in that default web site to the same folder I wanted to have in my url via a application alias and what I got when trying to do this was these duplication errors that I had been mentioning a couple times during this thread.

Now I understand why the duplication errors because of the fact that the default web site and application within it were looking at the same folder with the same web.config file and somehow because both were reading it things were clashing.

What I couldn't grasp is why I couldn't simply point the default website to a subfolder and navigate to that name in the url or at least why I couldn't set the default website to point to inetpub web server root which was simply wwwroot and than spin an application within this default website which I could put the alias of what I wanted to be in the url and than simply navigate to that localhost/alias and have a website resolved without relative links breaking.

Of course now I realize that pointing default website to a subfolder and trying to navigate to that same folder is not the same as an application alias serves and I can understand the logic of relative links being broken when the site root is pointing to one location while the application is pointed to another location.

I guess what I don't get though is why when you point the website root and application to the same folder with alais you want to use the site and application reading the web.config file throws a duplication error because isn't that sort of like what you were doing in iis5 and iis 6 when you right clicked on website went to properties and made home directory the path to the folder with your application files.

Than when you spun off a virtual directory with alias of what you wanted to use after localhost from this default website and pointed it to this same folder you pointed the home directory to aren't you basically doing the same thing as you do in iis 7.5 when I attempted to point default site to sub folder and application to the same folder yet in iis5 their was no duplication error when both the site and application were pointed to the same location yet in iis 7.5 there is.

Anyway I have asked the expert exchange group (and maybe you know to) how one could achieve multiple localhost sites within windows 7 ultimate using iis 7.5 since it seems like by having to navigate simply to http://localhost/ you would basically be taking the credentials from the default web site so even if you created multiple sites in iis 7.5 manager and set those specific site roots you created to various folders within inetpub\wwwroot you could only access the default one since writing http://localhost/a or localhost/b spons this maprequesthandler errror in handler staticfile and only typing http://localhost will correctly resolve to a web site with relative linkage in tact.

Thanks for listening and any comments you may have on this subject of setting up multiple sites in iis7.5 in a localhost type of environment

regards,

Bo

Hello There,

I thought I had already shared the answer that Westa and one of the folk at expert exchange shared with me in regards to setting up multiple web sites in localhost but I will share it now.

Basically it is all about modifying the hosts file in the windows\system\32\drivers\etc. You basically use notepad by running it as administrator than add the local Ip address of 127.0.0.1 and the name you want it to be mapped to like a.local or perhaps simply a so your url would be http://a.

Next you create a new site and bind that site to this name you sent up in your hosts file via host header and that is all. You can do this for as many sites as you would like.

One thing I did find is to make sure that if you are playing with sites before DNN 5.4 make absolutely sure that it is in the apppool set to asp net 2.0 or else you will run into a 500.19 error in regards to duplicate scripts. If it is after DNN 5.4 throwing it into an app pool set to asp net 4.0 should work fine.

I was able to successfully do this in integrated pipeline as well. So hopefully if any of you out there were struggling like I was who didn't know a lot about server adminstration but new how to work with the administrator end of the content management system than hopefully this will be informative to you and thanks for all the help you have been to me Joe through this process of discovery.
