I am hoping someone can help me. I am not sure what is wrong with my system. I was running 1.0 fine for years, but then started having lots of problems. So I decided to replace it with 2.0. It is still using the same database.
When I browse to ports 9003 (Server) and 9002 (Enterprise Server), things appear to be ok.
However, when I browse to port 9001 (Portal), I just get the Startup page. This page refreshes every 4 seconds, but never goes away. I have left it for hours to see if it finally gets to a login page. I have also rebooted server and reset IIS, but still no good.
Any ideas of what to look for?
Hi Paul,
I believe you are suffering of the same problem of mine.
I tried to update to 2.0 because my 1.0 version started to show up with some issues, for example, websites creation errors, long time loading, hosting plan errors…
During the update my error log point to:
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM [dbo].[ServiceItemTypes] WHERE [ItemTypeID] = 380)
INSERT [dbo].[ServiceItemTypes] ([ItemTypeID], [GroupID], [DisplayName], [TypeName], [TypeOrder], [CalculateDiskSpace], [CalculateBandwidth], [Suspendable], [Disposable], [Searchable], [Importable], [Backupable]) VALUES (380, 55, N’MsSQL2019Database’, N’MSPControl.Providers.Database.SqlDatabase, MSPControl.Providers.Base’, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1)The error was The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint “FK_ServiceItemTypes_ResourceGroups”. The conflict occurred in database “MSPControl”, table “dbo.ResourceGroups”, column ‘GroupID’.
Then I believe if you run this script bellow, BEFORE to update the MSPControl, the update will run ok:
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM [dbo].[ResourceGroups] WHERE [GroupID] = ’55’)
BEGIN
INSERT [dbo].[ResourceGroups] ([GroupID], [GroupName], [GroupOrder], [GroupController], [ShowGroup]) VALUES (55, N’Sharepoint Enterprise Server’, 15, N’MSPControl.EnterpriseServer.HostedSharePointServerEntController’, 1)
END
GOI didn’t try it yet, because I must have to wait until the weekend to try again!
Hi Paul,
This weekend I tried again to update to MSPControl 2.0, to get the update process successfully finished, I runned these scripts before to start the update process:

After the update I finally got the Login page to be showed, but when I tried to login using the serveradmin credentials, the page blink and no access is done. I looked for errors in Audit Log table, Windows Event Viewer and in Browser Developer Tools (F12) no errors was found! I ended up reverting the update.
Thanks for your help and guidance Marcelo. I’ve tried the same things as you, as far as updating the database manually, and also am getting no where. This really sucks. I have thousands of current customers that can’t login, and I can’t add new ones. Even though I provide free services, I still want them to work.
I’ve even gone to another machine to try installing from scratch, hoping to then be able to find any differences to fix in my production environment. But the installer never completes successfully there. I am totally confused and frustrated.
I’ve alerted developer. Do you have any additional logs?
Looks like SQL Server 2016 is now required as a minimum, because I see the use of JSON_VALUE function in some procedures. I guess I will upgrade my SQL Server and then try again.
After upgrading SQL Server from 2012 to 2016, and manually “fixing” the MSPControl schema and data by comparing to a fresh install, I can finally get a login page to show on my portal. That’s a huge step. However, I cannot login. I get the following:

Looks like something to do with encrypted salted password. Thing is, I never enabled that feature when I was running WebsitePanel or MSPControl 1.0. So why does it think it’s on? And how do I turn it off now? Settings in the web.config maybe?
Make sure:
Please make sure you are installed Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 on the Enterprise Server
Thanks for the response, but I am going to respectfully push back and disagree with your solution. I have seen that response on other posts, but it is not the correct solution.
I already have a newer version of Visual C++ Redistributable installed. 2015, 2017, and 2019 all share the same files according to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads.
Also, the libsodium.dll and libsodium-64.dll are already present in \MSPControl\Enterprise Server\bin\Common folder.
Any other ideas?
Nope, other than stating you are wrong that they share the same of anything. We require specifically 2015 if you can’t install it then this app will not work for you.
Wow, that was a surprise. After uninstalling the 2017 redist and installing the 2015 redist, I do get past the login issue. Now I have other issues with execution authorization. I assume this is the AppPool identity user, which in my case was set to MSPControl via the installer.
See the attached screenshot of a screen full of errors similar to the following:
