Hello Anthony,
in fact I just wanted to check this question, and here is what I discovered. I did both, and in both cases it does the same problem.
But there is another thing that I just discovered while doing this : When I go in the host's or admin's File system tab, I get the following error :
blanc page and this message:
An error has occurred.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.PageLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at DotNetNuke.Security.Permissions.Controls.FolderPermissionsGrid.SaveViewState() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.SaveViewStateRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Page.SaveAllState() at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
I do not know if there is any connection between these problems.
So anthony, what would be your suggestion? This document module worked fine for years, and suddenly this problem... (I upgraded with this protal from 3.1.x all the time, whenever a new version came out, till now 4.3.5). Also I wanted to let you know that the file that is located on the server and which gets downloaded when clicking the download link isn't broken, I mean when I download it by ftp, it works fine.
Thank you very much for any help!
Regards,
Fabian
PS perhaps there is some relation with the following problem that I encountered :
