Hello,

I am a bofafide newbie, so I'd aprreciate any help I can get.  I created my first DNN website in just a few hours.  It was pretty easy.  I went back about a week later to make some updates and this is what I got:

An error has occurred.
An error has occurred.

The URL contained the following:  "Default.aspx?tabid=36&error=Object+reference+not+set+to+an+instance+of+an+object.&content=0"

In attempt to get more information I went into the web.config and set <customErrors mode="Off" />, but this had no affect.

Con someone please give me some tips on how to debug/fix this?

Thanks

Access the database directly and see if there is any information in the log table.  This information might also be in an XML file under the portals/0/ directory, depending on whether you had the site configured  to write logs to a file or database.  Post any information you find in the 2 locations here.

Thanks for the diagnostic tips.  I have looked into the database eventlog table and this is what I found:

Found the answer ... some dll are missing in the bin folder of the 4.4.1 install.zip

I have copied the missing dlls from the 3.7 install.zip and now the site run fine.

Thanks
