      A critical error has occurred.
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I just installed the forums to godaddy account with no errors.

Thanks,

 

I get an error when I try to add a forum to a new group.  I click the + sign underneath the group and then click add forum.  I get the following.

I can't tell anything from that error, I will need the full error details from the Admin's Event Viewer.

tried the manual install and it still didn't work quite right... a few admin features simply didn't work. Got it to install finally by going into Hosting control center. Change IIS pipeline mode from integrated to classic. Forum module installed through wizard just fine after that.
