Hello Everyone,
Over the years I have neglected my DNN upgrades, so my new year resolution was to finally upgrade my website to the latest version of DNN. So I ended upgrading from version 4.5.5 to version 6.1.2 using the recommended DNN installation step to do the version upgrade in the appropriate blocks. When all the installations completed and completed without errors, I was able to add all extension modules except for the Messaging Module. I get the following error:
Error: is currently unavailable. DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Could not find file '<Path to DNN Root>\Install\Temp\no0o5mlx\license.txt'. ---> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '<Path to DNN Root>\Install\Temp\no0o5mlx\license.txt'.

Afterward the Module shows up in the extensions list, but is not accessible from the Module Drop Down List when looking to add it to a page. The Message.dll is also in the bin directory.
I though I would try to delete the extension and retry the install again, BUT.... There is no delete option for the Message Extention only an Edit option.
I tried to manually remove the extension by removing the dll from the Bin folder and also removing the messaging directory from Desktop Modules\Admin\ . The option would come back for installing the Addition Extension, but when I would try to install it, It just repeats the process described above.
Has anyone seen this before, or can give me some ideas?
Thanks,
