  1. I am new to using DNN, I installed the default application locally and tested it, it ran fine. The I uploaded the VS 2003 files, and the SQL database to the server. I try to enter my website and get this error:
    DotNetNuke Configuration ErrorDomain Name www.xxxxxx.com Does Not Exist In The Database

    DotNetNuke supports multiple portals from a single database/codebase. It accomplishes this by converting the URL of the client browser Request to a valid PortalID in the Portals database table. The following steps describe the process:





    1.
    Web Server Processing

    [*]When a web server receives a Request from a client browser, it compares the file name extension on the target URL resource to its Application Extension Mappings defined in IIS.
    [*]Based on the corresponding match, IIS then sends the Request to the defined Executable Path ( aspnet_asapi.dll in the case of ASP.NET Requests ).
    [*]The aspnet_isapi.dll engine processes the Request in an ordered series of events beginning with Application_BeginRequest.



    2.
    Application_BeginRequest ( globals.asax.vb )

    [*]The Request URL is parsed based on the "/" character
    [*]A Domain Name is constructed using each of the relevant parsed URL segments.

    Examples:

    URL: http://www.domain.com/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com
    URL: http://209.75.24.131/default.aspx = Domain Name: 209.75.24.131
    URL: http://localhost/DotNetNuke/default.aspx = Domain Name: localhost/DotNetNuke
    URL: http://www.domain.com/virtualdirectory/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com/virtualdirectory
    URL: http://www.domain.com/directory/default.aspx = Domain Name: www.domain.com/directory


    [*]Using the Domain Name, the application queries the database ( Portals table - PortalAlias field ) to locate a matching record.

    Note: If there are multiple URLs which correspond to the same portal then the PortalAlias field must contain each valid Domain Name in a comma seperated list.

    Example:

    URL: http://localhost/DotNetNuke/default.aspx
    URL: http://MACHINENAME/DotNetNuke/default.aspx
    URL: http://209.32.134.65/DotNetNuke/default.aspx
    PortalAlias: localhost/DotNetNuke,MACHINENAME/DotNetNuke,209.32.134.65/DotNetNuke

    Note: If you are installing the application to a remote server you must modify the PortalAlias field value for the default record in the Portals table according to the rules defined above.


    Please Help!!!!!!! I tried messing with the PortalAlias field, but nothing works.
