Dear Colleagues!

Two days ago one customer asked to make Bulk pages creation for DotNetNuke in background. Usually he creates more then 200 pages at once and it causes exception. We have made changes and everything was great, except templates for new page. This small exception does not fill modules with content from template. It was real pain, because some customers have a lot of modules for each page.

After deep digging we found a problem. This is method:

DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.ModuleController.GetModuleContent(XmlNode nodeModule, int ModuleId, int TabId, int PortalId)

It has line:

innerXml = HttpContext.Current.Server.HtmlDecode(innerXml);

This code works good when user works within portal, but when we create pages and modules in background, then HttpContext.Current.Server returns "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". To fix this we had to move all Panes Deserialization from the DotNetNuke to the separate class and replace this line with this one:

innerXml = System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(innerXml);

It works much more better now.

Sergey, I really don't see a need for HTMLdecode to require portal context. please log your finding at support.dotnetnuke.com, thank you!

Really, its not a bug. Because in 99% it works like expected. I believe just no one used this in the way where is no Context. So it does not look like a bug.

Do you still think i have to submit it to Core?

IMHO there is no need for HTMLencode and HTMLdecode to have a context, therefore I would call it a bug.
