I'm getting the error below on the ModuleDefinitions page after upgrading from 4.9 to 5.2.22.  This file isn't anywhere in the upgrade, install or source code folders.  Has anyone run into this before or has any idea how I can fix it.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thanks!!!!

it looks like an upgrade issue - I assume, not all files have been properly unzipped to the DNN installation folder.

PS: if unzip doesn't solve your issue, restore backup and redo upgrade.

THank you for your reply!  I've tried re-doing the upgrade multiple times...including trying other version of dnn.  Do you have any other suggestions for me to try?
