 I'm running into a weird error when trying to access the module settings. The error thrown on the page is: 

Error: is currently unavailable.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.Modules.ModuleSettingsPage.BindData() at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.Modules.ModuleSettingsPage.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

In the event log it appears as follows:

I have noticed that this only happens on the default text/html module that is added when a new page is created. Any other modules that are added to the page do not get this error. It is just the default html module that this happens to.

Any suggestions?

 I think I might have found the error that was causing it. I had <alignment>Left</alignment> in the page template. Is that not the correct way to set default module alignment?
