Hi Rob,

Hmmm - I really don't think it could be a module causing this - It is strange that the error goes away on host when you install the ST modules, but you say when you uninstall them all then the error remains? I think this would rule out the ST modules interfering with the namespaces.

I have had issues with the profile page but also never got to the bottom of it... sorry, not a great answer but I also really don't know where to start looking! Do you have any other modules that do anything with users at all?

I think you going to have to try WH4L support I'm afraid...

Thanks for looking at it Rodney.

I've been uninstalling modules going backwards to see if I can get it working again. I tried messing with manageusers.ascx according to a forum post I saw, but only caused more errors so I undid the changes.. then all of a sudden it began to work again, but again only for the host portal.... and then after a while and removing another couple of modules it stopped working again.

The most depressing thing I found is that the only other post about this exact error was actually from me back in March with a previous version of DNN: http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/ForumsDotNetNuke/tabid/795/forumid/108/threadid/58803/scope/posts/Default.aspx

This is the sort of thing that really puts me off using DNN.

Rob

Maybe you have one of these left over from DNN3x:
DNNSQLMembershipProvider.dll
DNNSQLProfileProvider.dll
DNNSQLRoleProvider.dll
MemberRole.dll

Just delete them if you find them.

Thanks for the reply ecktwo,

I'm reallly getting desperate.. I've even gone so far as to try deleting dll's going back weeks, but to no avail. The profile/add user page loads fine on the host, but not on the other portals. I'm back to uninstalling modules going backwards, but I'm beginning to suspect something else must be causing this. The site was a fresh 4.34 install upgraded to 4.35 then 4.36 and I've also now upgraded a copy of it to 4.37 just in case it would fix it.. but noop.

I've checked now for those DNN 3 dll's but they aren't present.

I've got 8 portals on the instance and if I have to rebuild again from scratch I'm going to lose a lot of stuff like Active Forums posts. So I'm treating this as if I had 100 portals on the instance.. what would I do then? There must be a way to fix this.

Any further clues for tracing this down are greatly appreciated.

Have you checked that the .vb file that is failing is the latest on the server? Perhaps that page did not get upgraded for some reason (locking on your host - read only etc.) - worth FTPing that source page up manually perhaps?

Have you tried downloading the database locally and attaching a local 4.3.7 instance to it? This would rule out a data problem if it worked...
