DotNetNuke® Project :: Installer Utility

Welcome to the DotNetNuke Installer project

installer_start.jpgWe have heard it again and again. DotNetNuke really needs an installer to help beginners with their first experience with DotNetNuke. But on the other hand the Installer should also be helping the more experienced users to quickly setup a new website with DotNetNuke.
The DotNetNuke Installer should take care of everything (ok, almost everything ...)

What is the DotNetNuke Installer?
The DotNetNuke Installer will take care of installing or upgrading DotNetNuke. It will guide the user through a series of pages and at the end will make all the settings based on what the user entered on the pages. Right now, the current version provides the following:

  • the user can select what items he wants to install (Core files, source, documentation, one (or more) module(s))
  • copy the files to the specified directory or to a remote FTP server
  • create the virtual directory in IIS (sorry, no support for root websites just yet)
  • create (or reuse an existing) database
  • basic command-line support


Issues and Bugs
Please use the DotNetNuke Installer issue tracker to report bugs and issues found in the installer, this way we are able to schedule, solve, track, and test the issues raised. Bug reports reported in a forum tends to be forgotten when they are no longer at the top of the list.

If you are not sure if something is a feature or an issue, feel free to describe your findings in the special forums below so others are able to provide their views and opinions.

Why feedback?
We need your feature ideas and experience with the installer to help us make it even better, and positive feedback helps us confirm the design choices we make.

Re: Blog 03.04.00 in release tracker

@holtsch: Yes that bug was fixed in this version. I also fixed the url to the bug tracker... I mistakenly had the www. in there. The url should be this: http://support.dotnetnuke.com.

Re: Blog 03.04.00 in release tracker

Can you give me some more info on "BLG-5949 Date & Time Issue on Blog Entries" - obviously, I should be able to look that up in support.dotnetnuke.com (btw, the link to www.support.dotnetnuke.com up there doesn't work) - BUT: Gemini crashes on me all the time and after looking for this specific bug for 15 minutes, I gave up.

The reason I'm asking is because I just lost all my entry-dates in one of my blogs because I changed my blog entries. Through the forums, I found a fix in the stored procedure Blog_UpdateEntry - and now I manually restored those dates (which was a bit of work, but at least it worked). But when I had a look at the code, I realized that there's no proper "AddedDate / AddedBy" and "LastModifiedData / LastModifiedBy" as I think it should be.

As I understand it, there has been some refactoring to this end, but I'd like to know what it exactly looks like now... probably, it's in the BLG-5949 description... but Gemini refuses to show me just that :-(

Re: Blog 03.04.00 in release tracker

Hi Antonio,

I recently downloaded blog module source code from the net and installed in my dotnetnuke solution. i am able to modify the UI and write some code in that. It's working fine.

i created a new page and added blog module in the new page . i am able to see the modified version because i changed the source code that's fine and clear.

But, both the blog modules are pointing to the same content. when i created a new blog or change some settings both the blogs are affected.

Are the two instances are dependent or independent to each other.

when i worked in forums module it is creating a new instance but i am facing this problem in blog module only.

Is it like, for any portal there is only one blog module like that. or i have to setup something else to work the modules independently.

Re: Blog 03.04.00 in release tracker

@tunersdream: Version 03.04.00 has not yet been released. It is currently in it last stages of testing - it woun't be long.

By AntonioChagoury on   12/19/2007 10:18 AM

Re: Blog 03.04.00 in release tracker

@tunersdream: The Blog module is "almost" there... a lot of effort went into release DNN 4.8. Now that that is out of the way, the Blog will be released. (BTW, Blog 03.04.00 is in DNN 4.8 ;).... don't tell anyone I told you... {grin}

Re: Blog 03.04.00 in release tracker

I encountered an error when searching blogs.
I input a few words separated by space "My Music Draft", seleced radiobutton "KeyWords" and clicked "Search", then i got an error:

Server Error in '/' Application.
The resource cannot be found.
Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.

Requested URL: /Blogs.aspx

But when i searched blogs with a single word, the right results did come.
It seemed the search-redirect failed with multiple words.

Is it a bug or is there something wrong with my configuration?

Thanks.
