Upgrade from 902.1 to 902.4 - mindtouch.host.exe missing

[euclyd]

Hi,

I'm using the VM deki and I've just tried to upgrade from 902.1 to 902.4 using updateWiki.sh, but my website now has an error 503 site settings error page. When I reboot the server I get the error "Cannot open assembly /var/www/dekiwiki/bin/mindtouch.host.exe" and indeed when I look in the folder it's no longer there! I've tried copying over the file from another instance, but then all kinds of errors are prooduced.

any ideas?

You probably need more than just that exe - re-download the exe and dlls from https://svn.mindtouch.com/source/pub.../9.02/web/bin/.

Thanks - I've wget'd (wgot?) the new bin folder and transferred it to the web directory and chown -R www-data the folder.

rebooted the server and the error had gone, but then the web front page was blank, however using http://myserver/@api/deki brought back the xml files, so I checked the /var/log/deki-api.log and found that I also had to repair the pages table in the mysql database.

It seems to be working now - thanks again.

Having the same problem. Info below:
system: Debian Lenny
Version 9.02.4 package install
I installed mono from the packages:
mono-gmcs mono-mcs libmono-sqlite2.0-cil libmono-sqlite2.0-cil libmono-system-web2.0-cil mono-1.0-devel as listed here
restarted the server several times, still receiving the error: cannot open assembly /path/to/wiki/bin/mindtouch.host.exe

Does /path/to/wiki/bin/mindtouch.host.exe exist?

I think going to that directory and typing 'svn up' should work.

No luck.
I've purged both installs (I accidentally installed deki-enterprise first). Installed again. Tried in 2 different locations. (When I use the default location, it can't find mindtouch.host.exe because It's looking for it in the other location....). Could permissions prevent it from running? Could mono be broken?

I'd have to look at it to guess any more (which I'd be happy to do if you had it available by SSH). Maybe the init script wasn't purged and it's looking in the wrong place?

(I think package installs put the bins in /usr/lib/dekiwiki or something, if that helps...)

Well, I just purged and installed again. I didn't change any file locations, I did everything exactly as the install guide by package said. Now I don't even get the install script to load. I'm going to try installing from source.

FINALLY! It works. Well... I will never know what the problem was.
