Hello all,

   I am a bit lost now this makes no sense to me.
 
   I have VS 2008 WAP that I have just set up, i.e. it only contains a blank page.  I have added it to my local host DNN and added the control, but when I add it to a page I get the error

Error: 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.UI.Modules.ModuleHost.LoadModuleControl() --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

how can I be getting this on a blank page? What other mistake could I have made.

Please help.

Thank you.

Does your module control class inherit PortalModuleBase in it's codebehind?
