You'll need to go into the web.config and make sure debugging is set to true, and that custom errors is set to off. Doing that should reveal the actual error rather than just the friendly error message.

Sounds like GoDaddy for sure.

Well enjoy it while it lasts…I have several graffiti sites hosted on godaddy and they really dislike the open permissions on all of the folders. If you are on a shared hosting account they will reset your permissions every time they move you onto a different server. The site will still be up, but you will be locked out of posting until you reset them. It’s good for 2-3 support calls per site every year.

It must have been something on GoDaddy's side, they just started working out of nowhere.

Please post in the discussion section and we'll help try to diagnose the the problem. You'll want to turn off custom errors to see what the actual error is. There is a good chance you need to enable write access.

Has anyone had any luck getting multiple Graffiti CMS sites up and running on GoDaddy hosting using their domain alias feature where all your sites live in sub folders? I'm not having any luck and the GoDaddy support is no help at all.

I would make absolutely zero contributions if the project were on GitHub. I won't touch Git with a 50-foot pole.

What is everyone's thoughts on moving Graffiti CMS from CodePlex to GitHub? I'd possibly make more smaller contributions to the project if it were in GitHub as I just no longer touch SVN.

Description:

Creating and maintaining a site has never been easier. Graffiti CMS allows you to quickly publish and maintain dynamic content Web sites with little or no knowledge of Web programming.

Announcements

The first open source stable release will be Graffiti CMS 1.3. A branch for this has been created in the source code repository. One of the goals with 1.3 is to make zero database changes so it will be super simple to upgrade from older versions. This branch needs testing and some simplification done around the new url routing features. List of features coming soon...
Do not use 2.0 branch for your production web site going forward, use the 1.3 branch for now.

Getting Started

NOTE: If you are not a developer, it is recommended you download the latest binary release of Graffiti CMS 1.3.

Here's how to get Graffiti CMS 1.3 up and running from the source code

Download the source
Open the \Branches\v1.3\src\Graffiti.sln solution file with Visual Studio 2008/2010
Update web.config to use the desired database settings
If you are not running IIS7 and ASP.NET 3.5 SP1, you should enable the "Generate Folders..." option in the admin >Site Options > Configuration page

The included ReadMe.txt file in the root has more detailed instructions on getting Graffiti CMS up and running.

Upgrade Note:
Al Pascual has written a blog post on upgrading from Graffiti 1.2 to the open source version (1.3)

Databases

Graffiti CMS 1.3 supports SQL Server 2000, 2005, 2008, Microsoft Access, and MySQL.
Due to licensing constraints, the VistaDB database provider is not included in the source code. There may be support for it added in the future.
If you are currently using Graffiti CMS with VistaDB and do not wish to migrate to a different database then you should keep using the version you have for now. See Upgrading a Graffiti Database for details.

I'm going to say the same thing I've said before - there has not been anything specific requested that can't already be done. As I asked above - is there something specific you are looking for that Graffiti doesn't provide? Scalability and communities are not specific requests.

The only way something is going to get done is if there is a specific request and someone has the time/need to implement that request. All of those platforms you mention have significant money getting poured into them. Graffiti has zero. Because of this, the only thing that has been driving enhancements to it has been the needs of the developers (and there's only about 3 of us that are active contributors).

If your company wants to use Graffiti for something that it doesn't support, the first thing you need to do is request it. The second thing you should do is implement the change you are looking for (or hire someone to implement it) and commit it as a patch to the project. An open source project with zero money and just a couple of contributors is not going to move forward in the way that you want. I'd love to make Graffiti into a true competitor to the Wordpresses and Orchards in the world, but I have to do the work for my paying clients first. And I'm sure the other contributors to Graffiti are in the same boat.

It is too bad, Graffiti has a great structure and in many cases is better than others that cost a fortune (Sitecore, Kentico). I think that is what Drupal has going for it as well, nice clean structure and huge community contributing to modules. Well again, it is just too bad, I thought this CMS would have gone a little further.

Enterprise CMS solution, Scaling?

Yeah, your company probably should go elsewhere. We need to keep in mind, the CMS in GraffitiCMS means "Content Made Simple". Maybe we could somehow stress that more so people won't be disappointed to learn that GraffitiCMS was never meant to compete with so called "enterprise solutions".

Personally I'm thrilled this noob programmer can actually write extensions that I need and easily rip out features I don't need.

Michael22 — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 18:00:40 GMT

This app maybe stable but it is losing popularity. I loved Graffiti when I first started building sites with it but it is becoming dated. It is too bad since the core product is pretty solid, it just lacks the scalability and Communities that other Open Source CMSes offer. I convinced my company to move to Drupal as our Enterprise CMS solution since their community is very active and their product scales really well. Initially I was hoping to use Graffiti but it just never advanced.

Commented Issue: Add Ability to Disable Category & Tag RSS Feeds [16623]

worldview — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 22:45:52 GMT

I have my feed redirected through Feedburner, but, Graffiti still offers local RSS links for category and tag level feeds which bypasses Feedburner. I just commented out the code in Macros::RssAutodiscovery() but it would be handy to surface this as a config setting.
Comments: ** Comment from web user: worldview **

I have a similar problem and I would like to disable all the feeds.

I can't figure out how to do it (ie. comment out the Macros::RssAutodiscovery()) . Can it be accomplished in an easy way without recompiling the code?

Thanks for any advice.
