Hello.

Well, my problem scenario sounds like that:

1. Successful install fresh DNN portal 4.09.00
2. Download ResourcePack.FullByAAS.04.08.01.ru-RU  and install it.
3. Download and install polish language pack also (so at last I got 3 languages in portal EN, RU and PL)
4. Im successful switch default language for portal to RU (everything works fine, position in menu are property displayed in russian lang).
5. Im adding new Page....

• copy and paste title from google translator (cuz i dont knwo russian lang)
• change permissions
• accept changes

6. To this point everything works fine. All content is displayed property.
7. Now Im chosing settings (page) from top left corner of site (Page Functions). This is moment where I got a problem.
When I would like Update change... Im having this error:

A critical error has occurred.
Page cannot be null. Please ensure that this operation is being performed in the context of an ASP.NET request.

A strory of this error (and tryed solutions)

* First i need to mention that this problem is occured (for this time) on Windows Server 2008 64bit (English version) + MSSQL 2005 Enterprice + IIS7.0
* On my local system Vista 32bit polish language at default +MSSQL 2005 + IIS7.0 is working fine....no error.
* On my website is working fine in some good hosting in poland... no error.
* Each MSSQL database Collation is set on Polish_CI_AS.


* When i got 3 portals one main (pl) and 2 children (en and ru).
I have another error displayed in messagebox (first one was displayed in conted of page).
Ofc on the same situaction described above.
Error like:
Sys.Webforms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorExeption: An unknow error occurred while
processing the request on the server. The status code returned from the server was: 500

My suspections

I think problem may be with:

• default language of system.(in progress of checking it).
• 64bit architecture of WinServ 2008 (in progress of checking it).
• IIS7.0 (but all settings looks the same everywhere).
• DNN issue (hops not :/) cuz  occurred error is rly 'small'

Well.... I hope someone could help me.

Thanks for reply.

DotNetNuke is expecting general latin case insensitve collation for the database, a different might cause issues.

Well, instead of a lot of problem I will get by this change (cuz time to time,  I need import some tables from other dbs in POLISH_CI_AS collation)

I changed it. But  supose, it may need reinstall fresh DNN (whoot I will do). Anyway I sow in Sql Server Profiler so more info about occurred error:

are you running IIS 7 app ppool in clasic or integrated (pipeline) mode?

Im using Integrated (by default?)

Domain names're without any special characters.

Pages include special characters. Well, when url dont have special chars (mostly cuz of page name) there is no problem (few looks) . I cant check whoot would happend if  special chars will be in url in other (than from page name) way. But it only(from this trio: pl,en,ru)  happened with Russian language. With polish special letters like "ąćłź" it's running fine.

Im in progress of checking all configuration..... of windows ect (tired like hell).
