GoDaddy Install

Hi Joe.

I am trying to get mojo installed on a GoDaddy hosting site.  I followed the instructions for the medium trust install but it seems to give an error during the check of SchemaHasBeenCreated.  I checked the code & it seems to be using somehing with SubSonic.  I've trid changing <customErrors mode="off" /> but I still can't view errors remotely - and GoDaddy support is as good as asking my dog for help :) So... I have a couple questions:

1. Are there any known prblems/workarounds with SubSonic in medum trust environments?

2. Any ideas to help troubleshoot?

3.  A work around my be to use 2.2.4.6b, but I can't find a downloadable link on Novell's site - only the latest version.  Do you have a copy available?

 

Thanks for your help in advance,

Chris

Hi Chris,

If you are using MS SQL, it doesn't really use SubSonic. Thats only used in other data layers.

Have you downloaded the /Data/currentlog.config file and checked what the error messages there are?

Best,

Joe

Re: GoDaddy Install

hey Joe,

I traced the loggin in setup/default.aspx.cs file and go to line

821: schemaHasBeenCreated = DatabaseHelper.SchemaHasBeenCreated();

which calls DatabaseHelper.SchemaHasBeenCreated() which on line 282 of DatabaseHelper.cs calls: DBPortal.DatabaseHelperSitesTableExists();
 

A look into that class mojoPortal.Data.Common.DBPortal and the public method: calls DataService.TableExists(GetProviderName(), tableName);

which as far as I can tell, SubSonic.
 

I looked into the /Data/currentlog.config file, but it is empty :(

Thoughts?

Re: GoDaddy Install

I commented out the call to DatabaseHelcper.SchemaHasBeenCreated()

and uncommneted the original code, compiled & uploaded the host web server.  Setup continued through without a problem untill it was about to create default content, when it had a problem creating a backup that resembeled this directory:  D:\...\_db_backup\...  I hit refresh & it ran through to the end and created the default website.

I had little success since though. Adding pages usually leads to the default error page, but sometimes the pages make it to the menus.  Once you clilck a menu, back to error page.

I've since replaced my mojoPortal..dlls with the ones from the distribution.  Same problem.

The data/currentlog.config file contains an error in mojoPortal.Web.Global, but the message seems to get cut off.

Did I miss any documentation about how to setup SubSonic in a medium hosting envorment?

THanks,

Chirs

Re: GoDaddy Install

Oh yeah I remember I did change it to use SubSonic to test for the mp_Sites table not long ago but I think that is the only place where the MS SQL version is using SubSonic. I did that because the syntax for checking the schema is changing over versions of MS SQL so I figured those differences could be abstracted behind SubSonic.

I don't know anything about db_backup folder thats not something mojoportal code is doing. It doesn't create database backups.

Without seeing the error messages it not possible for me to diagnose what is happening.

I know a number of people have posted problems with installation at Go Daddy, if you search this site for "go daddy" you will see a number of results.

I think some of them did succeed in the end.

Best,

Joe
