umbraco install pains

Error reading XSLT file: \xslt\umbTopNavigation.xslt 

i've tried installing on more than one server -everyone has permissions to install a kitchen sink if they wish - not going away.

I'd have expected the install for this to be a bit smoother to be honest.

anyone?

Copy the file Web/xlst/umbTopNavigation.xlst to /xlst/umbTopNavigation.xlst.

The usual cause of this is that you dared to change the XSLT on disk.

Open it up in the Umbraco ui, save it, and you should be good

also: razor kicks xslt's rear end. just sayin'

:)

[edit] like @Tomalak said, is the file actually there? is it a valid xslt file? anything in umbLog table? what happens if you remove that from the template?

The solution is to copy the file from /Umbraco/xlst/umbTopNavigation.xlst to /xls/umbTopNavigation.xlst as pointed out by @BlackjacketMack.

However the problem of why "umbraco install [can be a] pain" is that at the beginning, you probably ran the starterKit when the application path was /umbraco most likely defaulted by Visual Studio.

If you then change this to use / as the application path, all will mess up and the only solution is to move them back to the root again.
