appleseedapp.net still has latest release as 1.2.43.305

Hi Folks,

Just a heads up that the official site still says latest is 1.2.43.305 from 12/2016...almost wandered away from the project due to lack of activity, but stumbled across the repo and saw it has been being coded recently.

Installation failing when running project from VS

Hi,
I'm very interested in reviewing your framework (It looks really good). I have downloaded the VS project and built it with no issues. I have run the wizard which looks like it creates the DB and all Stored Procedures but then fails with the exception below. Any ideas?

Thanks

Mike

Portal Modifies Web.config even after Install if web.config is left writable

@mikeprag has reported web.config wrties to connection string settings even after install.

We should monitor the portal and watch its behavior with web.config of unneeded changes once connection strings have been locked in. I have at times seen this behavior as well and it may be affecting application pool restarts and load times. We will create a ticket for this internally until it is resolved @haptix
