Since I updated to the latest version, I can't seem to log in locally. The site works fine on the remote server, but when I try to log in locally it gives me the error:

XML Parsing Error: no element found

Location: http://localhost:55492/IAD/forum/yaf_login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fIAD%2findex.aspx

Line Number 1, Column 1:

I suspect it's just some file that I forgot to download from the update install. Any ideas?

Sadly, that is the extent of the browser error message, and I don't find any errors showing up in the message board log either.

Is that issue happening when you press login or as soon as you want to to open the login page?

It happens when I click on the Login button.

I have done two things. I've downloaded the complete site as it is online and still get the same problem. I have also tried downloading and setting up the Sample Application as it, editing only the connection string, and it throws the same problem as well.

In other words, that's the error I get when I try to go to the Login page.

I suspect it's something to do with the URLRewriter. It seems to be trying to go to a page called yaf_login.aspx which does not exist; I'm assuming that's a holdover from an earlier version of YAF.

If you are using the default urlrewriter config the link should work. If you are using an modified version can you post the content here?

Yes, I did. Here's my code:

Log In or Register

Hello,

/

I should also note that I used the YAF Sample Application and have had this problem right out of the box.

Well, progress ... of a sort. I downloaded the latest version (2.2.1) an tried that. Now, instead of an error message, I just get a blank screen!

Once again ... this is just happening when I try to run it on my local machine. if I upload it exactly like it is onto webspace, it works like a charm.

Still having this problem after the upgrade to 2.2.2. It just takes me to a blank page: http://localhost:50322/forum/yaf_login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2findex.aspx
