When I try to access General settings (Forum configuration) area, I'm getting this message:

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.Forum.Settings.BindMemberNameTypes()at DotNetNuke.Modules.Forum.Settings.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)--- End of inner exception stack trace ---

Any idea?

What version of DNN are you using? I am starting to think that major changes in how DNN handles lists between 4.4 and 4.5 is causing me a world of pain. The problem you have is a missing localizable "Lists" for the forum module. I have a ratings thread here where i discuss how to check this out.

Tnx for replay Chris, but since this is the site in production, anf there was not much posts, I decided to deinstall module and make new installation. 
Now, of course, everything is working just fine. Actually, I have a feeling that forum is now faster. 
Maybe upgrade is sometimes "tricky", but new module brings significant changes and I believe it is worth of "pain". 
I'm especially very grateful for the fact that I don't need to have old gallery module installed any more!

DNN installation on which upgrade failed was 4.6.2, with portal default language set to Croatian.

The upgrade itself didn't fail, just the list population was a problem. The hardest thing to address when using so many core API parts is handling so many DNN core versions (4.4 -> 4.6.2). The new forum version is very much faster than the older one, I have done tests to prove this and blogged about them.
