Hi lee,

 

I’ve being having a major problem with uploading modules. I have being trying to find a solution for the past 5 hours and can’t seem to get a clear answer. They say it has to do with name spacing which I clearly don’t understand. When I run my application through VWD express 2005 I get this error I guess through the debugger

 

 

I think that namespace pertains to the first line above in code or (e.i Entities.Modules.VisibilityState.Minimized). The module I uploaded was the html/text

Hi lee,

 

I could not get to a definite solution, I then decided to upgrade to DotNetNuke 4.3.3 ( Final Version ) . The sad part is that I ran into more errors.

 

 

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

 

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

 

Source Error:

 

An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below. 

 

Stack Trace:

   DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals.PortalSettings.GetPortalSettings(Int32 TabId, PortalAliasInfo objPortalAliasInfo) +316

   DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals.PortalSettings..ctor(Int32 tabId, PortalAliasInfo objPortalAliasInfo) +98

   System.Web.SyncEventExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +167

   System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +117

 

Base on my research I have reached my final solution to reinstall DotNetNuke 4.3.3. I am just getting tired of reinstalling and getting errors left and right. However, I am not going to give up!!

 

If you have any information about this can you please help me.

 

Thank you

Hi lee,

 

Everything seems to be working fine after I created a new website and followed the correct configuration. I think that the main problem is based on the process of installation. Based on my research everything leads me to agree that the main problem is base on the permission to write to the DNN folder. Thus, when installing DotNetNuke you have to make sure you give full control to your website folder, however if you are using IIS V5.1 you must add the correct object in this case [LOCATION]\ASPNET if you are using IIS V6 then you must add NETWORK SERVICE. However some say is base on the year of the Windows you are running if 2000 you must [LOCATION]\ASPNET and if 2003 you must use NETWORK SERVICE but, I prefer going by the what version of IIS is installed.
