Configured DNN 4.3.6 on local development machine, all is working with some maual help in creating the database. I download the source, so as a test I Publish site and copy the precompilied folder to the production server, pointed the IIS virtual directory to http://localhost/DotNetNuke_Maintenance to get to the  maintenance pages, all works so far. Click on Users Link on left and Kaboom!

An error has occurred.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.PageLoadException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: format ---> System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: format at System.String.Format(IFormatProvider provider, String format, Object[] args) at System.String.Format(String format, Object arg0, Object arg1) at DotNetNuke.UI.WebControls.PagingControl.CreateChildControls() in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\DNN\DotNetNuke4_3_6\Library\Controls\PagingControl.vb:line 167 at System.Web.UI.Control.EnsureChildControls() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Control.PreRenderRecursiveInternal() at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

Tried to troube shoot, no answers found.
Then I try to create a Parent portal, again Kaboom!
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.   at DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserController.GetUserCreateStatus(UserCreateStatus UserRegistrationStatus) in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\DNN\DotNetNuke4_3_6\Library\Components\Users\UserController.vb:line 568
   at DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals.PortalController.CreatePortal(String PortalName, String FirstName, String LastName, String Username, String Password, String Email, String Description, String KeyWords, String TemplatePath, String TemplateFile, String HomeDirectory, String PortalAlias, String ServerPath, String ChildPath, Boolean IsChildPortal) in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\DNN\DotNetNuke4_3_6\Library\Components\Portal\PortalController.vb:line 151


How is it possible to install this correctly? Not with the install version but with the source version as I want to develop modules down the road. I have read all the docs on install and no help so far. Why is the error in production pointing to the C:\Inet\wwwroot when in production the folder is on another drive?

Would appreciate any help.
