I have installed sitecore, created website in iis(6.1) and then mapped properly to the physical folder. When i add a test file (default.aspx) and browse, file load up. But when i try to open content editor (eg: http://localhost:XXXX/sitecore), I see the error
System.InvalidOperationException: Could not read Sitecore configuration
I'm guessing that, a small configuration is missing which is taking me through long go.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks in advance
Yes, as Patrick says, It was just an permission set to the proj folder. I have unchecked Read Only property of the folder.

One of our client has a DNN Site. There was some issue happened in the server and the drive that host the site is crashed. Luckily the database was in other drive. So we have database of the site. I have a back up of the site in my local system too. Now I need to restore the site. So My question is what steps should I perform exactly?
Below are some twists that I came to know recently:
There were other sites too and they were in different DNN version. Can we know from database which version of DNN was the sites running?
I tried to put my files on server and provide connection string of database. When I start the site, it complete the installation process, but shows me default DNN Page. Please see attached image for the same.
When I checked the Log file, it is throwing below error
Unhandled error loading module. ---> System.Web.HttpException: The
file '/Portals/_default/Containers/Xcillion/NoTitle.ascx' does not
exist
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.Exceptions -
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Unhandled error

DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.Exceptions -

Adding Module to ContentPane ---> System.NullReferenceException:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Then I thought the site may use the inbuilt database (I am not remembering exactly what kind of database I set up). So I copied the site code in separate folder and tried to map this folder with IIS. And that is giving me below error:
DotNetNuke.Common.Initialize - The connection to the database has failed, however, the application is already completely installed, a 500 error page will be shown to visitors"
Can anyone tell me how can I recover this site?
Thanks in Advance.
Ouch!
Having the database (or databases) is a good start.
Look in the Versions table and the last row is the last DNN Version installed. Look in the Portals table to see which portals were created in that install.
The errors that refer to Containers refer to files that are missing from the site's file system. Your IIS configuration for the site points to the root of the file system.
The module load exception probably refers to a module's files that should be in /DesktopFiles/ModuleName.
So, if you have the database AND you have a copy of the files that correspond to the database, then put them all back, make sure that the connection strings are pointed correctly in web.config ... and cross your fingers.
If you have the DNN version and the correct database, you might try doing a clean install of the DNN, install the modules that you had installed on the one that crashed, and THEN swap the clean version's database with the one that you have -- actually a copy.
Make sure that you are keeping copies, and you may be able to reconstruct lots of things.
And, it goes without saying that you should take a blood oath about making good and regular backups, and storing them on a different disk.
We have a project running Umbraco 7.5.9
We have suddenly started to get the following errors when loading Umbraco and opening various document types
Failed to load template: views/components/umb-folder-grid.html?umb__rnd=7.5.9.884162080
The errors come from /umbraco/lib/angular/1.1.5/angular.min.js
Is this a server setting that is causing this? The error has suddenly started appearing in several applications
Thanks
Check your project path whether Umbraco\Views\components\umb-folder-grid.html files exist?
It seems like you are missing that file - maybe accident delete it or did not include it when publish
Check your dev tools network tab and look for the call for the umb-folder-grid.html file.
It should come with a 200 response, but in your instance it may be 404ing.
I found that this file is requested when I go to the Media section of Umbraco.
If the file is 404ing, open up the location of the file in a separate tab and see if anything is being returned. If there is nothing there, check that your server does have the file on it.
friends,
recently i cam through this term "live configuration flle".what is this?why do we use this?
here is the text in which i found this "Software
installations like this one often ship with a sample configuration file to help guide
the process of setting up a custom configuration. Most users will simply edit this
file, changing only the settings that need to be changed for their environments,
saving the file not as a .sample file but as a .conf file. In this situation, the user
could have a live configuration file with the term zebra.conf.sample still in place.
".could you please help me?
From the text you provided, the term "live configuration file" appears to mean a configuration file that is being used by a running/deployed application.
i am trying to figure this out for a long time now, but so far no luck, maybe somebody can help me.
I have a 2.2.2 cakephp installed on my computer (localhost) and everything works perfectly. But now i want that same project to be online on remote server. I upload everything, set mysql path but i get a blank page when trying to access the site.
If i upload a fresh cakephp it works, but my project doesnt. The debug is set to default, think that should be 2? I also deleted files in cache/tmp, but still no errors or anything, just blank page.
Any info would be helpful, thank you.
I hate when that happens :). Usually it does if there is an error somewhere and you can't see it because the errors are turned off, so you should call phpinfo() and see if display_errors is on. Changing the debug mode doesn't work every time since display_errors is set from php.ini.
Unfortunately, if this is the problem and you don't have access to edit the php.ini file, you might need to ask the hosting provider to change it and restart the php service.
You can also try this: error_reporting(E_ALL)
I uploaded changes to my cakephp website and discovered that all actions for a particular controller returned a blank page. I discovered what the error was and was able to reproduce it with another controller.
The problem was that in the first line of my controller file I had a space before the opening php tag.
One space cost me hours.
Just uploading all files won't cut it. Make sure you work through this checklist:
First and foremost, check the error log file located under app/tmp/logs/error.log, this usually holds some very good pointers as to what is wrong.
Make sure you have uploaded the app/Config/database.php file with the proper details. Local installs usually have user root without password. Online servers (obviously) do not!
To that extent, also make sure you actually have a database with your hosting provider (either your host sent you the info or you need to create it yourself using their control panel).
Make sure you also uploaded all .htaccess files (the one under the root directory and /app and /app/webroot), some FTP programs don't show this "hidden" file by default.
If all else fails, contact your hosting provider for further support as they usually have access to more verbose server logs that can also hold clues.
The real problem was only the coding I used in notepad++. All my files were encoded with UTF-8, but they should have been UTF-8 without BOM. After I changed it to UTF-8 withot BOM, everything started to work perfectly.
is TYPO3 doing some indexing of the filesystem into database?
We try to add a video to our page here, but video isn't selecable from the file window altough its put into the right directory.
The Fileadmin says "9 records found" in the folder and is displaying only 7 Files, because someone might have deleted two of the files out of the folder.
But the new video file we've put there won't be displayed, too.
Is there any way to manually start TYPO3s file indexer?
I don't think TYPO3 does any indexing of the files; it just reads the list of the files straight off the filesystem. So there's no file indexer to start.
My suggestion for your problem would be to check the permissions on the file you uploaded and make sure it's readable by whatever user the Web server is running as ('apache', 'www-data', etc). If it isn't readable by the Web server it won't show up in the fileadmin area.
Okay guys, I feel stupid right now - altough I can't really explain the behavior...
What happened seemes to be some strange caching failure.
If you click on the "choose file" button it shows the window as seen in the screenshot above, displaying the last used folder.
But: this view is somehow cached.
If you select the same folder again from the file tree from the left, the view is updated and the missing files are shown -.-
