Hi! I just upgraded from DMX 5.2.11 to 5.3.0 (DNN still 5.5.1). Installation didn't deliver any error. I'm using the S storage provider. When trying to download any file, I got the error: "file doesn't exist". The file name which is displayed in the modal box (Open... / Save ... / Cancel) doesn't show a valid file name but an hyperling which doesn't seem to be well formed. Any idea? K.R., Alain.

Hi Alain, Can you go and verify the settings and save them again? They are now saved to SQL in the DMX_Settings table. Peter

I had the same problem whe testing it on our test machine. The files are saved to d:\dmx_files\ but after the install it defaulted back to saving them under portals\[portalid].

Hi, DMX prior to 5.3 stored its settings on disk. 5.3 stores them in the DB. In the upgrade is migration code to move all settings into the database (where they will remain in the future). I tested this several times and it worked. There is not much else I can do and I have no explanation for your cases. Upgrade code is extremely hard to debug because it only runs once and once only. I'll make a note to tell people "check your settings" after this upgrade. Peter

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
