A friend asked about creating a website that he could use to build a community around an area that he has a passion for. Sounded like a perfect for Community Server! I decided to try out aspnix.com to see how hosting is there. Even though I heard from Dave Burke that they lost the wizard, one of aspnix's key support guys.
Well the site went up pretty easily, I did need to raise a help desk ticket to get the permissions set for the aspnet worker procees. So, www.pfpnetwork.org is born.
I decided to also launch a new site using DNN 4.3.6, www.intelligentsystemdesign.com, is now live also. This site was a bit more problematic. Apparently, DNN 4.3.6 was not packaged properly. There are some medium trust problems that require some changes to the web.config file. These changes were in the Source package, but not the install package. There is also a problem with DNN 4.3.6 when trying to run in Visual Studio. To run the application in Visual Studio with the cassini web server, the use of dynamic ports was 'fixed', and now the following entry should be added to allow running the app in Visual Studio,
In web.config you can add an application setting:
<add key="UsePortNumber" value="True" />
I am sure there will be more changes to get this working. I am not sure that it was needed!
