I've installed CS 2.1 on a server. I can see the home page, and click through the tabs for home / blogs / forums / photos / downloads / reader / roller. However if I click on the tab for 'Control Panel' I see the following errors. Any suggestions on what to do next?

Thanks, Mamtha

I would try over writing the SiteUrls.config file with a new one I think maybe the file is corrupt?

Thanks Wiz for your suggestion about the SiteUrls.config file being corrupt. After looking into the size of this file, it turned out that the CommunityServer download had not unzipped correctly on the local machine before the files were pushed out to the server. After rextracting the files, uploading again, and reinstalling, the site appears to be working fine for the moment.

 Thanks, Mamtha
