I just did the install on my local test site and have Site Urls Error.

Critical Error: SiteUrls.Config

Please contact your CommunityServer administrator. A technical explanation of why this error is caused is below.

Community Server expects to find a valid XML file containing all of the links for a community. By default, this file is located at the root of the with the name SiteUrls.config. 

A common error is to included unescaped XML characters, such as "&" when defining a querystring.

If available, the location of the error will be listed below:

Could not find the requested node /SiteUrls/navigation/link[@name='controlpanel']

For more information you can also visit http://CommunityServer.Org the home of the CommunityServer Forums development team.

Hi Shakes,

   Is the test server the same as your community site?  the error is quite odd, did you have a siteUrls_override.config already?  It may be that the application installer did not merge into this quite correctly.  Please send me the file and I will take a look.

Regards,
Rob 

No i did not have a siteUrls_override.config already...i commented out the offending parts however im not sure what that section was for and what kind of ill effects it might yield.

  <!--<Override xpath="/SiteUrls/navigation/link[@name='controlpanel']" mode="update" Product="FourRoads.Shop">

    <link name="Shops" resourceUrl="shops_Home" text="Shop" />

    <link name="controlpanel" resourceUrl="controlpanel" resourceName="controlpanel" roles="SystemAdministrator,BlogAdministrator,ForumsAdministrator,Moderator,GalleryAdministrator,FileAdministrator,ReaderAdministrator,MembershipAdministrator,Shop Administrator" />

  </Override>-->

Im rather sure the install did not run correctly though as I have found quite a few sql errors. I ran the InstallShopSchema and InsertStartingData Manualy and that seemed to solve most of them.

I am getting an error still on Show All Items:

Server Error in '/CarolinaPulse' Application.

Invalid column name 'ReturnInCategoryList'.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Stack Trace:

There could be others I will just have to see after I play around a bit. I should also note that I am running 2007.1 sp1 with some minor tweeks to the sdk adding some properties to the user profile.

My goal is to use your software to charge my business users a fee to be a member of my site on a yearly or monthly basis. I think the subscription feature will work for that….

 All items throws an error too...

Server Error in '/CarolinaPulse' Application.

 Just noticed that those are the same two errors...I get an error in the "all coments" section however that is the same one as well...

OK let start with the easy issue

shakes:

No i did not have a siteUrls_override.config already...i commented out the offending parts however im not sure what that section was for and what kind of ill effects it might yield.

  <!--<Override xpath="/SiteUrls/navigation/link[@name='controlpanel']" mode="update" Product="FourRoads.Shop">

    <link name="Shops" resourceUrl="shops_Home" text="Shop" />

    <link name="controlpanel" resourceUrl="controlpanel" resourceName="controlpanel" roles="SystemAdministrator,BlogAdministrator,ForumsAdministrator,Moderator,GalleryAdministrator,FileAdministrator,ReaderAdministrator,MembershipAdministrator,Shop Administrator" />

I am getting an error still on Show All Items:

 

I'm pretty sure the reason that this has failed is because the orginal SiteUrls file has been customized, by commenting out the above lines it should have minimal impact on the site.

The second issue is a bit more of a problem and I am at a loss to see why the SQL schema has not installed correctly, can you give me a full blow by blow log of what actions you performed and which version on CS you started with etc so I can investigate it further.

The attached zip contains the patches that should have been executed during install of the addon, please use SQL management studio or command line to run these scripts in the order : Patch 1.1 to 1.2.sql , Patch 1.2 to 1.3.sql, Patch 1.3.1.sql and then send me the error logs.  This should bring the DB schema upto date and your site should be working.

Cheers,
Rob

 Running those other scripts seems to have been the way to go..as for the install i followed the pdf and am running a slightly modified 2007.1 sp1 install..on my home laptop..windows vista home premium...sql2005..nothing i ever do runs smooth so i wouldnt loose to much sleep over it...another question that may have already been answered...is or will the sdk be available?

 Hi Shakes,

  I'm glad we've got you up and running, I'm still a little perplexed why the update scripts didn't run.  Currently we have no plans to produce a SDK, we have made a distinct effort to make the core product extensible without the need to alter the internals.  We are working on producing documentation etc to aid in development.  However if you have specific questions post a message on here and one of us will answer.

Cheers,
Rob
