Community Server 2008
Now that was a smooth transition. Within minutes BloggingAbout.NET was upgraded from version 2007.1 to Community Server 2008. We’ve gotten a brand new license from the great folks over at Telligent, the folks behind Community Server.
For logged in users, the frontpage will show recent activity of blogs, posts, threads and friends you’re linked to or were active in. Not logged in users will see a welcome message and latest activities. That page is quite empty with no recent activity, I’m looking into it why this is. Also not all posts for every blog comes up in the blogs overview when you’re not logged in.
If you see any other problems or have questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.
Thanks,
Dennis van der Stelt
If you want to know, this was my upgrade script:
1. Place app_offline.htm
2. Copy all /web/ files to website
3. Convert
4. Check for non-copied files in centralized storage
5. IIS7 Integrated Pipeline (give site its own app pool)
6. Bit of web.config
7. delete faulty users from removed communities
SELECT *
FROM cs_SectionMembers sm
join cs_Sections s on sm.SectionID = s.SectionID
left outer join cs_UserProfile p on sm.UserID = p.UserID and s.SettingsID = p.SettingsID
WHERE p.SettingsID is null
DELETE FROM cs_SectionMembers
FROM cs_SectionMembers sm
inner join cs_Sections s on sm.SectionID = s.SectionID
left outer join cs_UserProfile p on sm.UserID = p.UserID and s.SettingsID = p.SettingsID
WHERE p.SettingsID is null
8. delete /golfcoasting/ en /default/ in /themes/
9. Turn off Groups until I figure out what’s added to the community.
