It seems DeleteDesktopModule should also delete the module definition. Maybe a cascaded delete failed or something.
Posted By Michael Tobisch on 03 Oct 2019 02:26 AM Andreas, have you installed Sebastian Leupold's Turbo Scripts by any chance? In that case you have to uninstall them first, before upgrading, and then install the approbriate version... Happy DNNing! Michael
Hi Michael,
That is a good question and I should probably have mentioned it. We did our own optimization a long while ago, using the SQL server optimizer. In our installation there were some joins being performed using strings, most likely caused by 3rd party modules. That is what caused the SQL script to fail, because an index alreayd existed. I think it was actually using a text column to store an ID field of another table, like FileID:1234. We fixed it by creating an autocalculating column that produces a bigint that can be joined.
Yesterday I found this thread having the same 5.3.0 error: https://www.dnnsoftware.c...e/posts/threadpage/4 One suggestions was, to add an additional upgrade to 5.2.3. I just tried it and it works, because there was no 5.3.0 of course. However, now 5.2.1 failed dealing with languages. According to some postings in that thread, an upgrade to 5.4.4 or newer will eventually be possible. It seems to be a stored procedure that gets called and then deleted, so it should be easier to debug it to find the cause.
Our site was using multilanguage (MLHTML, MLAdvAnnouncementModule, ...) for a long time, since 2005/2006 I think. Andreas
Posted By Michael Tobisch on 03 Oct 2019 07:35 AM Andreas, well I don't know how big your site is, but that sounds to me that it could be a better idea to redo the site from scratch in DNN 9. I am not sure if the old Apollo MLHTML and MLAdvAnnoncement modules are still working... Happy DNNing! Michael
Hello Michael, Yeah, am thinking about that too. But I have not given up completely yet. Still a long road ahead till 9. Redoing it would be kind of painful because of SEO. I just realized that the step that now fails is something else: 00:00:21.930 - Updating Config Files: 05.02.01 Error!
So I was looking at the wrong stored procedure, which correctly executed and populated the new Languages and PortalLanguages tables. Regarding the MLAdvAnnouncement module, the plan is to either get it working, replace the 3-4 instances we have with pure HTML, kindly ask Eric for the source code or rewrite our own. Am still undecided. Andreas
Looks like Telerik. :) Isn't Telerik long gone? The config script files are in the \install\Config folder. It seems something should get added to the web.config here.
OK, after then trying to go from 5.2.3 to 5.4.4 I get the same error: 00:02:02.223 - Executing Application Upgrades: 05.03.00 Error! Here is another thread: https://www.dnnsoftware.c...d-gterror-lt-font-gt
