I have upgraded several sites from dnn322 to dnn337 without any problems, but there is one site that makes my hair turn gray. After unzipping the 337 upgrade folder over the existing directory and modified web.config, I start the upgrade process. First i get a message saying that a procedure called dbo.checkupgrades (or something) is missing. I click to continue anyway, and the upgrade runs without problems. But, when I try to log in to the site after running the upgrade (no error in the login page), I get an error saying "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". This website has the same modules running as all the other sites I have been upgrading, so there is no difference. And i KNOW I have made the correct modifications in web.config.

I thought I should try to upgrade from 322 to 331, and then from 331 to 332 and so forth, to see if that helps, but I am missing the versions between 322 and 337. Can anyone help me?

Regards,
Roy

You might try renaming your bin directory, then unzipping the upgrade file, then merge in any additional dlls from your old bin directory.
