Endless Refresh

[igavemybest]

I went to finally install the 7.0.3 on my local machine. After I get through the install screens I get endless, literally, cycle of refreshes. Is there a reason? Are there special instructions for running this in the Visual Studio dev environment server?

The dev server always assigns a port. The dev license from AC includes a port...but probably not the same port the dev server is using. So the site is kind of freaking out trying to redirect to the URL in the license.

You may get it to work by setting demoMode="true" in the AbleCommerce.config file. Or open the website from IIS.

You need a separate keycode to work in a developer environment because AC7 licenses are keyed to the domain/host. Or you can do as Andy suggests and run in Demo mode. I believe demo mode is fully functional except an intercept "demo mode" page comes up every so often to remind you.

Yup, that fixed it.
