Dnn 6.01.04

Smithcart 4.7.0

I was trying to upgrade to smith cart 5.0, the install seemed to work fine but the shopping cart would not load.   While looking around I found out that every smith extension had a version of 5.0 except the buynow module which stayed at 4.7.   I recovered the site (DB and file structure) and decided to uninstall smith cart and then do a fresh install of the 5.0 version.  While uninstalling the 4.7 version I kept getting the error

 

Error: is currently unavailable. DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Version string portion was too short or too long. ---> System.ArgumentException: Version string portion was too short or too long. at System.Version..ctor(String version) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.FileInstaller.ReadManifestItem(XPathNavigator nav, Boolean checkFileExists) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.FileInstaller.ReadManifest(XPathNavigator manifestNav) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.InstallerFactory.GetInstaller(XPathNavigator manifestNav, PackageInfo package) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.PackageInstaller.ReadComponents(XPathNavigator manifestNav) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installers.PackageInstaller..ctor(PackageInfo package) at DotNetNuke.Services.Installer.Installer..ctor(PackageInfo package, String physicalSitePath) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.Extensions.UnInstall.UnInstallPackage() at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.Extensions.UnInstall.cmdUninstall_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

 

Which I traced back to the buynow row in the DNN_Packages giving a “string or binary data would be truncated” error when the row was attempted to be deleted.  

Any clue why this is happening?

Hi Ambrose,

Have you recently upgraded DNN?

I recommend using the instructions found in the following Article to perform a clean installation of the Cart: https://www.smith-consulting.com/Foru...

One possibility which may have caused the incomplete upgrade is a timeout. Before reinstalling the Cart, try increasing the maxRequestLength, requestLengthDiskThreshold and executionTimeout values of the httpRuntime node in your application Web.config file.

Thanks,
