Installation via Microsoft Web App Gallery

Hi All,

My host offers a range of Microsoft Web App Gallery applications. I've chosen to use MojoPortal mainly due to the info on this site.

However, I've installed it using the app gallery installer and I'm getting a error message.(See Below). I have access to my databases, but do not know what the error means? Any help or advice would be gratefully received.  

Security Exception

Re: Installation via Microsoft Web App Gallery

Hi,

Take a look in the root of the site, if you see a file there named Web.mediumtrust.config, then rename Web.config to Web.fulltrust.config and then rename Web.mediumtrust.config to Web.config

Hope it helps,

Re: Installation via Microsoft Web App Gallery

Cool, glad its working.

Do me a favor and after you login to your site look at Administration > System Information and see what version of mojoPortal you have.

The reason I ask is because the current version of mojoPortal in the web app gallery is version 2.3.6.2 and it is pre-configured for medium trust hosting, so the steps I just had you take should not have been needed if you had this version. So it makes me think your host is somehow using an older version of mojoPortal and not really using the latest feed from the web app gallery.

Best,

Joe

Re: Installation via Microsoft Web App Gallery

Upgrading is a pretty easy process, but you can't upgrade from the web app gallery installer you would have to upload files by ftp.

http://www.mojoportal.com/upgrading.aspx

See the blog for release notes for versions since 2.3.5.5, to help you decide if you want to upgrade right away. We do make new releases about once per month, so the next release will happen before the end of March.

Best,

Joe
