I've seen it mentioned in a few places but no luck finding a resolution yet. At this point I'm kind of hoping for a DNN update that will magically fix it.

 

At first, I installed a very old version from the "More Extensions" tab, then uninstalled it after seeing a new one.  After trying to install the latest version, I got this same error.  I fixed it by deleting ~/DesktopModules/Blog/ before trying the install again, and it worked.  Since I didn't have any content, deleting everything was an option, but for everyone else, I don't know how viable this workaround would be.  As long as you back everything up, I think it's worth a try.

 

Embarrassed to say I didn't try that! Just reporting that I did the following:

1. Uninstalled Blog module in Host>Extensions ("Uninstalled with Warnings")

2. Deleted Blog directory in DesktopModules

3. Installed DNN Blog 6.00.05 (this is the earliest version of 6 that I have) -- success!

I will test with 6.00.05 for now and see if I have any issues, but hopefully I should be able to upgrade to the latest version easily (6.04.00?)

Thank you for the recommendation, Evan!

Sorry for the double-post -- just also confirming that the update to 6.04.00 went perfectly, and the Blog module is working as it should.

Also a heads-up that the 6.00.05 package that you can download in GitHub has the telerik issue some people were describing in other threads -- if you try to manage a blog using only that version installed you will get more errors. Simply upgrade to the 6.04.00 package and the module will work properly.
