DasBlog 1.7 and Free Text Box

Clemens mentioned to me that after upgrading in-place to DasBlog they are seeing a BLANK page when visiting the Administration "Edit Entry" page.

This appears to be some left over schmutz somewhere in a Temporary ASP.NET Files folder as it relates to the upgraded version of FreeTextBox that DasBlog 1.7 included. Somewhere in the temp world the FTB versions aren't lining up.

I had this problem myself, and I fixed it by doing a fresh deploy of my bin folder. I backed it up, delete all of bin, and redeployed all the application assemblies and resource assemblies. Also confirm that you've got the latest versions of all ASPX and ASCX files.

I also had a "blank" edit entry page, but only in IE. It looked fine in Firefox (some of the buttons don't work, but that's a different issue). Anyway, I looked at the source HTML when in IE and there was a ton of FTB stuff there. I don't know if it was the full stuff since I have never looked closely at what used to be there. I am thinking it has something to do with the CSS layout I am using in my custom template, but I haven't had time to dig into it yet, and I did not try the standard templates.

Anyway, this may be another scenario for getting a "blank" page.
