So I downloaded 2.1 from gitbub. Followed the readme on upgrading and get the below when trying to run the install:

I am very new to this, so sorry if it is obvious.

Currently running 2.0 on Windows Server 2008, MS SQL 2008, "standalone"

I can't pinpoint the problem for you, however, I would suggest repackaging the upgrade and trying to do the upgrade again. The repackaging is only applicable if you are downloading the latest version.

I have tried that. Maybe Im doing it wrong. Downloaded the latest this morning, ran the .bat's, copied the folder structure to the live iis folder.

Finally was able to build it in VS2012. Says it's it debug mode however and need to re-compile in relase-mode. I'll search around for how.

We still have several issues.

First Unread still doesn't function. (looks like it has been brought back up recently)

Images under the 800 max width are enlarged to 800 making them look funky.

Once I did that I finally got the site.Master and the code-be-hind page of site.master and Default.aspx to work.

If you're doing a build on the latest commit from github,

Open the solution. Navigate to the file LatestInformationService.cs

Exclude the /YetAnotherForum.NET/Classes/LatestInformationService.cs file, then include it, do a solution rebuild and then run the .bat file. This will produce the ZIP files for an upgrade.

Then to get the release DLL's, just change the build to RELEASE, do a build and copy the DLL's from the /bin to your /bin directory.
