Url repeats site name

I have just installed in/off root - all working. However, my links all show http://mydomain.com/mydomain/page.aspx - I am getting a second 'mydomain'.

The secondary 'mydomain' is not repeated more than once for urls a layer further in.

Can someone advise on my error as I am 'on hold' until I can resolve this.

Many thanks for your assistance.

Re: Url repeats site name

Please explain more clearly what you have done. I do not understand:

"I have just installed in/off root"

Is it running in the root or in a sub folder?

Did you move the installation from another location after creating content?

If so see moving an installation of mojoPortal.

If the site is on the internet it would help to see it so post a link if you can.

What version of mojoPortal?

Re: Url repeats site name

Hi Joe - domain points to server sub-folder (mydomain) - mojoportal installed in folder mydomain (where the domain points to)

Installation and domain have not been moved - brand new install at isitjust.com

mojoPortal Version 2.3.8.5 MySQL
Operating System Microsoft Windows NT 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2
ASP.NET Info Running in Partial Trust

Any help would be very much appreciated

Re: Url repeats site name

Domains do not point to folders, they point to ip addresses.

mojoPortal can run just fine as a root IIS web site or in a sub folder virtual directory in IIS, what it cannot do is run in a sub folder and pretend it is a root site like some hosts (GoDaddy) does with domain forwarding or domain masking

This is what you site appears to be installed like. When I view the source of the page I see the csshandler url is:

'/isitjust/csshandler.ashx?...

which means your site is not really running in a root level IIS web site, it is not duplicating the domain name it is using the folder that it is running in as part of the url which is only natural.

There is no way it will work correctly in that kind of configuration.

Hi Joe, Totally makes sense. Thanks for providing the answer (even though I would rather it was something else).
