 I am wanting to learn how to create a module in VS 2005 for DNN so I downloaded the starter kit, opened VS and created a website selecting DotNetDuke Web Application Framework. Set up all the stuff, ran the without debug and got a successful install. When I go to the portal I get this message:

 

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Source Error:

An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.

Stack Trace: 

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]
   DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals.PortalSettings.GetPortalSettings(Int32 TabId, PortalAliasInfo objPortalAliasInfo) +91
   DotNetNuke.Entities.Portals.PortalSettings..ctor(Int32 tabId, PortalAliasInfo objPortalAliasInfo) +83
   DotNetNuke.HttpModules.UrlRewriteModule.OnBeginRequest(Object s, EventArgs e) +2677
   System.Web.SyncEventExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +92
   System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +64

 

Any help would be appreciated.

How much RAM do you have . If you're using SQL 2005 you need at least 1GIG or it will throw this error.

Try one of these set-ups;

  • Setting-up the Environment (using IIS)
  • Setting-up the Environment (without IIS)
