Hi,

When I try to change settings in the Admin/Site settings page, I get an error saying: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'DefaultLanguage', table.
I will paste the complete errormessage at the end of this post.

When I look at the pulldown list under 'other settings - Default language', the list is empty.

What can be wrong and how do I correct this?

 

Thx,

Ron

I am sorry, I didn't do a good job searching for an answer myself. When I googled in stead of searching here I found this post: http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Forums/tabid/795/forumid/-1/postid/328397/scope/posts/Default.aspx

where Warren Boone described a solution that worked for me:

Hello,

I had the same issue and resolved it with the following steps

  • Confirm your Root Folder Security either ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICE (Apply to subfolders)
  • Go ADMIN - LANGUAGES
  • Under Available Locales if your Langauge is not selected, click the dropdown and select the language
  • Select Edit Language and then
  • Select Enabled
  • Now if you go ADMIN - SITE SETTINGS - Advanced Settings - Other Settings - Default Language (Should be correct)

This works, thanks Warren.
