Problem with new install #359

Closed skarpik closed 2 years ago

skarpik commented 2 years ago

I'm trying to track down some bugs in 2sxc, so I thought I'd set up a DNN website on one of my Windows 10 computers (I've been using nvQuickSite and 2sxc on Windows 11).

I installed SQLExpress on my Windows 10 computer. Created an admin user. Then ran nvQuickSite and got this error:

nvquicksite error

Is there a bug or have I missed a step somewhere?

Thanks.

@skarpik can you set logging to verbose in nvQuickSite and see if that provides any clues?

skarpik commented 2 years ago

Sure. Where do I turn the logging on?

valadas commented 2 years ago

You would have to first click on settings (orange bottom-left box) image

And then you can raise the logging level and click the link to get to the log files after reproducing the issue. image

Also, did you install IIS on that computer ?

@valadas - thank you for pointing out the settings. I don't know how I missed that.

I have been busy on other github issues and just got back to this one this morning. I set things up to duplicate the error but this time with more diagnostics. And what happened? It worked perfectly. I then tried again with the regular level of logging. And it worked perfectly. It reminds me of what happens when you take your car in with the engine light on. As soon as the mechanic looks at the car the light goes off. I swear there is something similar happening here or I am going mad.

In any case, contrary to my earlier complaint, the software works perfectly. And as always is terribly useful. Sorry for the wild goose chase.
