Be carefull when using site Wizard for a free edition - do not import more then 1 blogs from wizard!
Today I ran into the following issue:

1) I created a new web site using New Web site wizard
2) I selected the community web site template
3) Occasionally, when I was selecting what items to install and what not, I forget to remove blogs.
4) Web site was created, but when I try to open Blog pages it tells me then license do not allow me to have many blogs
5) OK, thats understandable, as far as I have a free edition.
6) So I went to the Blogs, there were 2 blogs installed, and I wanted to delete any of those blogs, but I failed, because during deletion, system again throws exceptions regarding that license doesn't allow me to have 2 blogs

So, I was in a dead spot, I can't use web site and I can't delete blogs that hamper using the site

Finally the issue was solved by manually deleting all blog-related records from the database, from the tables CMS_Document, CMS_Tree, CMS_Attachment, CONTENT_Blog, CONTENT_BlogMonth, CONTENT_BlogPost

I hope, this post will help is somebody will have the same licensing issue with the free edition.

Forget to say that after deleting all that staff manually from the database you have to restart your web server (perhaps Clean cash can also help, but I didn't try).

Hi,

Unfortunately this seems to be a bug that the blogs are not checked. I am sorry for this inconvenience. We will fix it in the next version.

Best Regards,
