I have just installed a new DNN 5 on my DailyRazor site (previously a v4 DNN)  I started from scratch in a new folder and created a new database.  Everything looked good and the wizard (custom option) got all the way through to the step after setting up the SuperHost.  At which point it hung and gave a rt error - same error after several refreshes.  I edited out the customerrors setting and tried again .  The detailed error is

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Source Error:

An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.

Stack Trace:

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]
   DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals.PortalSettings..ctor(Int32 tabID, PortalAliasInfo objPortalAliasInfo) +48
   DotNetNuke.HttpModules.UrlRewriteModule.OnBeginRequest(Object s, EventArgs e) +2969
   System.Web.SyncEventExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +68
   System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +75

Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.3082; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.3082

Any advice as to what to do next would be appreciated.  All the permissions and db tests completed without a hitch.

THANKS

I have wiped the db and the folder of files, re-uploaded all the DNN 5.1.4 files with the correct db connection strings.  Now when I try the site I get:

Error   Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.AddEventLog'.

At least the first time I tried it the wizard worked, now I can't get past this step!  The db is exactly the same as the first time.  I am using DailyRazor host site, with their SQL Server (as before when I used DNN 4) .  Everything is new - the DNN 5.1.4 files and the database.

Started again - install went fine this time.  First time was a timeout (due to choosing too many modules)
