Hi all

I am having some issues installing this module on a clean install of 3.1.1

At first i was using the Source version and that was failing as i found in other posts.

Now having downloaded the Install version i get the following error

StartJob Registering DesktopModule
Failure ExceptionSystem.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: type at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type, Boolean nonPublic) at DotNetNuke.Framework.Reflection.CreateObject(String TypeName, String CacheKey) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.ResourceInstaller.PaDnnInstaller_V3.GetDesktopModuleSettings(DesktopModuleInfo objDesktopModule, PaFolder Folder) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.ResourceInstaller.PaDnnInstallerBase.RegisterModules(PaFolder Folder, ArrayList Modules, ArrayList Controls) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.ResourceInstaller.PaDnnInstallerBase.Install(PaFolderCollection folders) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.ResourceInstaller.PaInstaller.Install()

Thanks in advance for any help

Cheers, Clani

Clani,

please read this thread

And before please double check your dnn version, it seems that you try to install the blog module on a dnn version prior DNN 3.1.0.

HP

Thanks for the reply HP

I had seen that thread but as i am running both DNN & MSDE on the same server i thought it was not that relavent.

I have now had a look in the log viewer that was mentioned in the thread and have found that during the install i got some errors with loading some default modules such as

<LogEntries><log LogGUID="728affef-77d7-428d-a596-6932d366c1ed" LogTypeKey="GENERAL_EXCEPTION" LogUserID="-1" LogUserName="" LogPortalID="-1" LogPortalName="" LogCreateDate="2005-11-16T19:58:12.5470000-00:00" LogCreateDateNum="0" BypassBuffering="false" LogServerName="DSVR001369" LogConfigID="4"><properties><property><name>AssemblyVersion</name><value>03.01.01</value></property><property><name>Method</name><value>System.Type.GetType</value></property><property><name>FileName</name><value /></property><property><name>FileLineNumber</name><value>0</value></property><property><name>FileColumnNumber</name><value>0</value></property><property><name>PortalID</name><value>-1</value></property><property><name>PortalName</name><value /></property><property><name>UserID</name><value>-1</value></property><property><name>UserName</name><value /></property><property><name>ActiveTabID</name><value>-1</value></property><property><name>ActiveTabName</name><value /></property><property><name>AbsoluteURL</name><value>/Install/Install.aspx</value></property><property><name>AbsoluteURLReferrer</name><value>http://www.clani.co.uk/Install/Install.aspx?mode=Install</value></property><property><name>ExceptionGUID</name><value>76390b99-7013-489c-ac67-7013ac3888ba</value></property><property><name>DefaultDataProvider</name><value>DotNetNuke.Data.SqlDataProvider, DotNetNuke.SqlDataProvider</value></property><property><name>InnerException</name><value>Access is denied: 'DotNetNuke.Modules.Announcements'.</value></property><property><name>Message</name><value>System.IO.FileLoadException: Access is denied: 'DotNetNuke.Modules.Announcements'.

However no errors we recorded when first logging on the the site to propt the install scripts

These modules don't appear in the "add module" drop down but if install them from the zip those modules install ok

Any Ideas

Thanks

It sounds for me that you have a NET Framework or an permission problem.

Have you tried to reregister the asp.net with aspnet_regiis -c

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cptools/html/cpgrfaspnetiisregistrationtoolaspnet_regiisexe.asp

Maybe you can post your problem in the main forum,  I don't think that it is a module specific problem.
