Error during installation

Hi,

I am trying to install mojoPortal for the first time on a hosted server - getting the following error.

Server Error in '/' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
 

Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Any help / suggestions would be appreciated!

Re: Error during installation

More information:

I am running a Windows 2003 with ASP.Net server on fasthosts.co.uk

MSSQL connection changed in config file

All the files ftp'ed to the server

When I try the following - www.mydomain.co.uk/Setup/Default.aspx - I get the error above.  I understand that it is telling me that there is an error but can not find a log file that gives detail.

Re: Error during installation

Hi,

You need .NET 3.5 SP1, so make sure that is your hosting environment.

You can find the error log at /Data/currentlog.config, newest errors are at the bottom of the file and those will be the ones of interest.

Hope it helps,

Joe
