Hi,

My DNN 4.4.1 website has experienced several recurring errors that I have been unable to track down a cause for and I really need someone's help with this as I cannot edit in many of the modules on the site. Also, in the recent past I was unable to add a module to a page as well. My hosting provider, iHostASP, has moved the site to a new server and for a while it worked fine but now it is exhibiting the same problems as before.

An abbreviated summary of the errors are as follows:

  • Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException
  • Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid

___________________________________________________________________

This error occurs in the Media Module error after editing an image name or any other change:

Error: Edit Media is currently unavailable.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at DotNetNuke.UI.UserControls.UrlControl.get_UrlType() at DotNetNuke.Modules.Media.EditMedia.cmdUpdate_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

_______________________________________________________

XMOD4 Error loading form for editing (my message-not a part of message below)

A critical error has occurred.
Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid.

Host Settings Error

Error: Host Settings is currently unavailable.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.Host.HostSettingsModule.cmdUpdate_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

These are just three examples of what I have seen throughout the website in various modules leading me to believe that the DNN installation must be corrupted. If it is, how would I fix it? I can supply more verbose stack traces if needed. Thanks!

Hi Tugboat.  I don't have a great answer for each of your errors, but I wondered if you had considered upgrading to 4.5.5 to see what happens?

You could back up all your data, run the upgrade, and see if that helps.

Thanks for your suggestion. I think I am coming to the same conclusion.

Do these errors appear to be in the DNN code (wwwroot) or could it be a corrupted database?

If it is in the DB, would upgrading necessarily fix it?
