Hi there

I have been running a custom skin on my installation, but when I wanted to check the skin switch back to the default DNN Grey Vertical fixed width skin, my site bomber out and I got the following errror :

An error has occurred.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.PageLoadException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: type ---> System.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, Boolean UseCache) at DotNetNuke.Framework.Reflection.CreateObject(String ObjectProviderType, String ObjectProviderName, String ObjectNamespace, String ObjectAssemblyName, Boolean UseCache) at DotNetNuke.Modules.NavigationProvider.NavigationProvider.Instance(String FriendlyName) at DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.NavObjectBase.InitializeNavControl(Control objParent, String strDefaultProvider) at DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.Controls.TreeViewMenu.OnInit(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Control.AddedControl(Control control, Int32 index) at System.Web.UI.ControlCollection.Add(Control child) at DotNetNuke.Framework.DefaultPage.Page_Init(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.OnInit(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Page.OnInit(EventArgs e) at DotNetNuke.Framework.PageBase.OnInit(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

Can anyone help me here ? I can't get back - the portal is the default one setup during installation, and all the other parent portals I have running off the installation seem to be ok - just portal with id 0 won't load ...

Please help ...

Thanks

Sian

I have the exact same error when running the latest version of DNN. I have rebuilt the base install 3 times now and anytime I change a skin the app explodes and I have to start over.

In the distribution óf DNN 4.4.1, there have been some provider .dll files removed by mistake.

to fix the situation with the vertical menu, download a previous DNN version package (4.3.7)  and copy the following file from /bin folder: DotNetNuke.DNNTreeNavigationProvider.dll

HTH
