I have a blog set up on my site and for the most part it is working, but when ever I try to go to the module options I get the following error;

An error has occurred.
Error: Module Options is currently unavailable.

In my log file I have the following;

Does anyone know what is going on, why is this error happening?

from the error I can see that during the page_load of the module options an expected value is missing. It's likely to be a text field that was cleared in error, as the page_load expects to read, as the checkbox's would still save. Can you take a look into your modulesettings table, and see if there is setting missing (the field names in red below correspond to the expected setting names for the blog)"EntryDescriptionRequired"))CType(BlogSettings("SummaryMaxLength"), String)CType(BlogSettings("SearchSummaryMaxLength"), String)CType(BlogSettings("MaxImageWidth"), String)CType(BlogSettings("RecentEntriesMax"), String)CType(BlogSettings("RecentRssEntriesMax"), String)

chkUploadOption.Checked = Convert.ToBoolean(BlogSettings(

chkShowSummary.Checked = Convert.ToBoolean(BlogSettings(

chkShowUniqueTitle.Checked = Convert.ToBoolean(BlogSettings(

"EnableUploadOption"))"ShowSummary"))"ShowUniqueTitle"))

 

If CType(BlogSettings("PageBlogs"), String) <> "" Then

chkEnableDNNSearch.Checked = Convert.ToBoolean(BlogSettings(

 

"EnableDNNSearch"))

chkForceDescription.Checked = Convert.ToBoolean(BlogSettings(

txtSummaryLimit.Text =

txtSearchLimit.Text =

txtMaxImageWidth.Text =

txtRecentEntriesMax.Text =

txtRecentRssEntriesMax.Text =
