Hello All,

   I got around my last error by running the SQL scripts manually,  but I would still like a solution to the error for next time.

   THen once I got to the modules installs I got the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error when installing  TelerikEditorProvide, TelerikEditorProvider and CoreSitemapProvider.

Below is how the error looks for the CoreSitemapProvider, the others are all pretty similar.

Install Package:: CoreSitemapProvider
Info:: Reading files
Info:: File CoreSitemapProvider.dnn read successfully
Info:: File license.txt read successfully
Info:: File bin/Providers\DotNetNuke.SitemapProviders.CoreSitemapProvider.dll read successfully
Info:: Reading files done.

This was solved, for some reason the handlers section of my web.config files was missing, added it and it is all good now. Cheers
