Hi,

When I right click a file and select "open in excel" I get an error "The internet address is not valid".

Can someone please help?

Regards

Dave

Hi Dave,

I'm not sure where you get the error. Can you elaborate by explaining the exact steps and where and how you see this?

Peter

Hi Peter,

I can upload the files and open them from Internet explorer, but when I right click and select "Open in Excel" I get a message box which says that the internet address is invalid.

Regards

Dave

Hi Dave,

Then the internet address is not valid and Excel can't get to the file. This is not a DMX error. If you want you can send me a Fiddler trace file (see pinned post in this forum) and I'll have a look.

Peter

Thanks Peter,

I am sure you are right, unfortunatley for me I don't know how to use fiddler.

Here is the page error.

I have uploaded the file using the Document Manager, so why can it not find it? Also, if I double click the file it opens.

Peter, I really need to get this working for a client, if you could login to my portal and check out the settings I would be grateful.

Hi Dave,

I'd be happy to have a look. Please contact me by email with the necessary details.

Peter

Peter,

Where do I find your email address? It is not under your profile.

Dave

Hi Dave,

Hi Peter,

I have followed the installation document to the letter but when I make the changes to IIS (prohibit WebDAV and .axd), I get a DNN error message.

Can you help?

Dave

Hi Dave,

What is the error message? What do you see?

Peter

Hi Peter,

I get the DNN error page with logo and a link to return to site, the only other text on the page is "Windows Server 2003".

I think it maybe to do with the .axd handler, but I can't work it out. I sent you a copy of the web.config hoping it may cast some light as to what I have done wrong.

My previous email also contained the website address, if you go to it you will see the error message I am talking about.

Regards and thanks in advance for your time.

Dave

I've noticed that a lot of outlook pst recovery issues can be solved by either 1) updating the registry, 2) searching for missing drivers or 3) system restore. I think it has something to do with Microsoft updates. Have your IT guy look at the central server, too. That's usually where it starts when it comes from within one single firewall. Cheers!
