We tried to upgrade to Cireson v6 on our lab environment. The upgrade did not work and our cachebuilder is missing now all of a sudden.
This is the error log:

    I had to run the setup, restart the server like it told me to, and then run the setup again, and then it had the additional folders and files.  Or have you already tried that?

    Additional Details.....

    When doing an upgrade make sure "Install database" is selected or you may miss out on a bunch of Stored Procedures that can affect the product.

    Same goes for the Cache Builder also.

    I have restarted the server and I am 100% percent sure that the "Install database" option was selected.
    I tried to do it again 15 minutes later and then tried to do it without the "install database" selected, but the installer warned me that I'd miss functionality so I instantly turned it back on, again without result.
    The second time it said "Succes" but in the logs was the same error message

    And are the files now present such as web.config?  Personally I have a few customizations plus I enforce HTTPS so I had to:
    1. Edit web.config to use the URL rewrite - Cireson KB #76
    2. Go into IIS > The Server > Sites > CiresonPortal > Right click and choose Edit Bindings > Add https type on correct port such as 443, IP address == All Unassigned, and select a SSL certificate

    Since I also use pre-compiled C# aspx webpages for specialized forms, I had to copy and paste the DLLs again into the CiresonPortal > Bin folder, but luckily that was about it, I always recommend keeping a backup of the CustomSpace folder before using any installer but for this particular upgrade it kept the CustomSpace folder.

    The web.config is still present in our development environment and is thesame as the web.config of our production environment.
    We did not, by my knowledge, enable https in any way in our development environment.
    Also, it is a pretty basic setup for testing purposes, so extra dll's are not imported.

    Cireson answered to my ticket and I have followed a tutorial video thoroughly and still get the same error.

    I don't think I have any other solution left, if you ran the installer as an admin that has read/write access to the database and it's still not wanting to install, even if you tried all the prereqs, I think you have to make a backup of your CustomSpace folder and then Uninstall the Cireson Portal - Cireson KB #1137.

    What version of the Portal were you upgrading from?  For us, we had 5.0.8 and then updated directly to 6.0 by copying and pasting the installer files so we'd have an offline copy and then ran the setup as Admin.

    If permissions are all correct as Connor mentions. I would try manually delete the website in IIS and re-run the setup.

    I had this happen today with an upgrade from 6.0.2 to the latest 7. A full uninstall worked, but I still don't understand what the problem was.

    Hello Leigh,

    Do you notice any errors or unusual behavior in the install log?

    Hi Dakota,

    Nothing besides the "Error processing powershell: An entry with the same key already exists" error mentioned above. This is where the setuplog file stops. As in Dries' example, all previous actions were successful.

    I upgraded the server with the cache builder running first and it had no issues.
