After upgrading PSU from 1.5.7 to 1.5.13 I’m not able to start my dashboards or run scripts. Starting my dashboards will not give me any error messages, they will just continue loading. Running scripts show the following error message.
I’m hosting on IIS and I followed these instructions to upgrade. I didn’t use the scripts, just followed the steps. When looking at the logs I noticed the following, which I believe is the root of the problem, but I’m not sure how to fix it.

Did you take a backup per the instructions?? I would recommend rolling back and following the guide here.
I cannot verify my methodology will always work - in fact I’m working on a bug with Task Scheduler now. I can say 100% I’ve used the code in that guide to upgrade through the past 3 versions on a production dashboard but task scheduler can often cause issues.
My only thought on things not working as intended if you followed all of the same steps as the scripts is that you missed something somewhere along the lines, or your environment is otherwise configured differently.
Additionally, there are a number of steps in my guide which are quite specific to automatic updates. When you say you followed the steps, do you mean you followed the guide steps or you executed the steps in the scripts step by step?
I felt as I didn’t have to back up because I created a folder for each version of PSU and in my site settings I just change the physical path to the version that I want to use.
I actually followed a mixture of your instructions and the instructions in the link you provided. These are the steps I took:
Stopped the WebSite in IIS
Stopped the AppPool in IIS
Downloaded, extracted and unblocked the zip version of PSU
Replaced the appsettings/web.config files in the new version with those from the working version.
Edited the web.config file to look for Universal.Server.exe in the Universal.win7-x64.1.5.14 intead of the old version.
In IIS I changed the physical path for my site to the location of the extracted files, C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Universal.win7-x64.1.5.14
Started the AppPool in IIS
Started the WebSite in IIS
The admin console launches with no problems but the dashboards wont start and scripts wont run. I noticed that the latest version of PSU, C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Universal.win7-x64.1.5.14\UniversalDashboard\Frameworks, didnt include the 3.1.1 framework, which is the one my dashboards use, so I copy-pasted the 3.1.1 folder from my previous version of PSU. Could this be the issue?
That could be why the dashboards won’t start. I’d also look in the dashboard log in the management console. It might have more information.
The jobs are another story. I would 100% validate that the unblock-file worked. If it fails, it does so silently.
Right click on a DLL in the installation directory and validate that the unblock check box isn’t there.
Another thing you can try is to increase the log level to debug (appsettings.json), and then it will output the command line of the PS processes it is starting for jobs and dashboards. You can then attempt to run that manually to see if any errors are present in the console.
I already had Debug as the default for ‘Logging.’ Is this what you mean?

Ah! That worked! Thank you so much, now I know for future updates. Thank you so much!
I did encounter another issue though, one of the dashboards just gives me a blank screen. I’m almost positive it has to do with permissions as its the only dashboard that has authentication. Before the update it worked perfectly. I looked that the log and found the following.
Confirmed it has to do with authentication after disabling it.
