    Hi Nicholas,

    Do you have secondary DNS services setup? If no, just open in DNP "DNS" service properties, make sure you have nothing in "Secondary DNS services" field and click "Update" button.

    Well, seems we have a bug here. OK, run the following SQL statement against Enterprise Server database:

    DELETE FROM ServiceProperties
    WHERE PropertyName = 'SecondaryDNSServices'
    GO

    It should do the trick. We'll fix this bug by the next DNP 1.5.4 release.

    hi

    did that, same error... I am wondering if there is a deeper root cause, something to do with my other very recent posts...

    OK, then try the updated DNP.EnterpriseServer.dll assembly attached to this post.

    Just unpack it to "bin" folder of Enterprise Server.

    Hi Feodor,

    I had the same problem, it's working again with the updated DNP.EnterpriseServer.dll.

    This problem is on even with a new instalation of DNP 1.5.3. The updated dll works.

    and as you would expect, this bug was buried amongst a bunch of unrelated errors...

    DNP and DNN are RAM hungry applications... I am running 1GB on my machine and it's no where near enough. When the system runs out of memory it throws all sorts of unrelated errors... I guess its telling you where it failed in the process, but doesnt give you much of an idea of the underlying problem

    On our production environment DNP serves thousands of customers and right now its DNP Portal consumes ~ 130 MB and DNP Enterprise Server ~ 150MB. I'm not sure how much it is in comparison with other applications. Of course, the application like Commerce Starter Kit is taking about ~15MB under load, but DNP is much more complex thing. I would agree DNN is quite memory-hungry application and you may consider replacing it with DNP WebPortal.

    I must admit we've done a great memory-optimization job for DNP 1.5.x - all possible operations were buffered, cached, streamed.

    I'd be very interested in the optmisation techniques you describe. Can you elaborate?

    I'm sure in another post you talk about a production environment of at least 2GB of RAM.. ? ?

    Also, 1000 customers, many of them running DNN must be very heavy on the RAM...

    Any information on this kind of heavy lifting would be most helpful

     I guess these are more general hosting questions, not directly related to DNP but more to do with the hosting environment..

    Regarding optimization techniques I mean you can replace DNP Portal based on DotNetNuke with DNP Portal - a standalong web application for hosting DNP UI mdules. Take a look at this post: http://forum.dotnetpanel.com/forums/thread/2436.aspx

    There are many info regarding DotNetNuke optimization, but I can admit it's not an easy process and it involves many steps and requires much time.

    Regarding server's RAM I can only say that more RAM your server has, more web sites you can host on it. On our servers every second customer runs DNN portal and 2GB of RAM is quite enough to host hundreds (!) DNN portals on a single server.

    The first advice is uninstall all unnecessary software from the server. Secondly, VPS server with 1GB of RAM is not the same as PHYSICAL server with 1GB RAM. I've been noticed several times that VPS with the same configuration works slower (at least visually without running any performance tests) than physical one. I don't know why but these are my personal observations. Maybe it depends on virtualization software datacenter uses of whatever else...

    On our DotNetPark Web Hosting web servers we have 2GB of RAM, on SQL servers 3-4GB, on mail servers 1-2GB, on DNS servers 1GB, on backup servers 1GB. And Feodor is right, at least 50% of our customers have DotNetNuke installed. Also there are many SharePoint web sites.
