thanks andrew, im so happy that i was able to solve the problem and help :)))
I guess we should report this issue to DNN Team, hope anyone of them watching this thread to take that in consideration, and in the same time I want to thank DNN Team because DNN ver 6 is really a step and big step.

Hello,
I really dont know whats going on here - the only difference between the templates is site content, whereas the issue seems to be ddrmenu related. Can you please check and make sure that ddr installed i.e. check your Install\Module folder and make sure that DDRMenu_01.99.05_Install.zip was installed (if the file is still there it was not installed - you can force an install via installresources mode- http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/W... )

As for changing the template you can't, it's used during portal creation -in earlier versions there was a site template function but I can't see that so it's been removed for new installs. Probably the best thing to do is if it's a new site try again - however I'd like to debug this and seeing as we can't recreate it internally would it be possible for you to give me a copy of your site (code and database) to try?

I am having the same issue. I've deleted the database and restarted several times. I tried the Default and Blank templates and got the same error.

We are running SQL Server 2005, Windows Server 2003 SP2.

Couldn't load menu style 'admin/Menus/DNNAdmin': System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at DotNetNuke.Web.DDRMenu.DNNCommon.DNNContext.get_ModuleFolder() at DotNetNuke.Web.DDRMenu.DNNCommon.PathResolver.Resolve(String path, RelativeTo[] roots) at DotNetNuke.Web.DDRMenu.TemplateEngine
