Just wanted all of you to know I am not ignoring the issue.  I cannot recreate it in the version in vault now.  I am trying to make sure this isn't a problem for the next release.  The release, btw, is getting close.

I do not know if they can help you becase the module is not compiled in the debug mode...

Thanks,

Greetings, I got this problem just yesterday for no apparent reason. I was not working in the gallery at the time but uploading some modules I was building.  Initially I started debugging down through the framework code to see if I could trace the point the exception was being thrown.  I ran out of time, but on cranking up the ol’ box this morning, everything is working fine.

I checked my event logs and found the following event occurred around the time that the problems first started.

Event ID 15: Automatic certificate enrollment for local system failed to contact the active directory (0x8007054b).  The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.
 
I am running a windows XP box connected to a windows 2000 Advanced Server running active directory . There does appear to be some issues with  the ‘AutoEnrollment’ service as it fails to enroll in the morning when I log in and then retries every 6 hours ie. mid-afternoon when I get my Object reference error.

Could it be that the 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' message is security/permissions related? Can anyone back me up with this by checking their Application Event logs for corroborating events?
