While looking at my LogView I’ve noticed a set of exceptions that occur every 30 minutes or so that I don’t understand.  The exception seems to be related to a rather empty settings module that I have associated to a View module that I’ve created.  While the View module seems to function correctly the exception(s) are cluttering up the log file.

Since I do not have any settings that are taking place the settings module is somewhat empty.  I have included below the exceptions that are being thrown, the settings module and my manifest.  There are several questions I have.

1.        If the settings module is not doing anything is it really required as part of my manifest/installation?

2.       What have I done or not done that is causing these exceptions to be thrown.

While I have navigated around many forums I have not seen anything specific that would solve this problem.  Any suggestion as to how to solve these problems would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
