Global Settings not Visible in Live Site

Hey guys,

When I view my site live, under the administration panel it tells me that there is absolutely zilch under global settings. Nothing shows up it just says:

Global Settings
________________________________________________________________________

[nothing]

But in the production and testing version on my machine it works perfectly, and I can update all my settings. Any help?

Any help, guys! Product needs to be available for my customer ASAP.

I can also confirm this issue. fresh install using the latest version, and straight out of the box I cannot access Global Settings. Have completely wiped and reinstalled twice now, same issue. Please help!

hi, see if this helps

Guys,

This is delaying the release of a product for a customer. Can anyone PLEASE help!?!

That's what I'm getting.

Sorry to triple post, but here's the exact exception:

This type of error was more common with asp.net 2.0.  It typically involved the '?' character in the url of the aspnet_wp.exe worker process.

It's hard to decipher exactly what is causing your error but if you are using 1.7+ (I think this is where asp.net 4.0 starts) then I would check with your host and ensure that .net 4.0 is being used in your application pool.  Start there and find out the exact configuration your host is using.

This will tell you a few things about your configuration and how good (or bad) your host is at responding to your requests.

Sorry this isn't more specific but it will at least help you eliminate some stuff.

Hello,
I am having the same issue as OP, where my Global Settings view is blank.  This is a fresh install on a IIS7.5 server with full permissions running ASP .net 4 app pool.

Has anyone had any luck solving this issue?
