YetAnotherForum Installer Trust Override

28Nov10

I’ve recently encountered a problem with YAF 1.95 and the installer. Due to the fact that YAF checks for your .NET Trust Settings in the installation package you might possibly run into an issue if your hosting company uses a custom trust configuration with a custom name i.e. mediumtrust-custom.config . Jodohost did exactly that, and I really don’t want to move hosts.

Since Jodohosts is pretty much a medium trust config with a few full trust privileges thrown in, I’ve just added to the SVN the ability to override the YAF Installer check with a close approximation of the host.

To this end we now have:

  <add key="YAF.OverrideTrustLevel" value="Medium" />

Which of course, blocks the Trust Check and returns Medium trust in this case.

Hope this helps someone else.
