Wilson WebPortal Forums Wilson WebPortal Forums : Bugs & Issues : Problems with setup

Date Post

I'm probably just being thick but I can't get the portal up and running.  I'm getting the following error when I to navigate to the site:

The type initializer for 'Wilson.WebPortal.Core.Config' threw an exception."} System.Exception {System.TypeInitializationException}

from this line of code:

initialized = Core.Config.Initialize(aliasPath);

the alias path is localhost/WebRoot

Thanks in advance,

Lloyd

Is "WebRoot" setup as an application in IIS?  If not then it needs to be configured that way.  I think that could also be due to the connection string being wrong -- did it give a stack-trace?  One way to tell if it got past the connection string correctly is that it should add an entry to the wp_Config table on the first hit.  The more information you can provide about what exactly you have done, the full error details, and anything in the database, the easier it is to help you.

Thanks, Paul Wilson
