Thanks for all the help!

If I change the app pool from integerated to classic, I get a 404 not found error when I try to view the website.

I checked the EventLog table in the database to see if any errors are being recorded as right now the entire site doesn't pull up, but nothing is getting recorded.  I can't think of a module that would use an extra .dll - like I said before, this has been working for quite a while now until recently.  But obviously something has changed...

I can pull it up locally through visual studio if I run it through the Visual Studio Web Developer Server and not IIS.

Thanks!

Still haven't been able to figure out what caused this problem.  Used JetBrain's dotPeek to look into the DotNetNuke assemblies and it appears that the issue is occuring in the DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.IsInstalled() method.

Saw that DotNetNuke 6.2 came out today, so I tried upgrading the site and luckily it started working again.  Not sure what the original problem was - corrupt files maybe?

that would be my guess e.g. during background compilation as files were created in the temporary asp.net files folder, a background process such as a virus scanner or search indexer caused a malformed assembly. Overwriting the files caused new assemblies to be recreated and solved the problem. I've seen this happen on very rare occasions and its basically impossible to recreate so I'm glad you solved it - however I should mention that we do not support upgrades from beta/rc to the release version so I would not use the version you upgraded.

I'm not sure what you mean by beta/rc version because the official DotNetNuke 6.2 was released yesterday? 

Also, just a question, if I wouldn't have been fortunate enough to have a DotNetNuke update released around the same time I experienced this error, how would one go about fixing this on a production website?  I had already tried copying the DotNetNUke 6.1.5 assemblies over my own thinking something may have been corrupt, but it didn't resolve the issue.

you said "Saw that DotNetNuke 6.2 came out today, so I tried upgrading the site " -it wasnt clear if you were updating a test site of 6.2 to the release or not, hence my comment. As for fixing this, in general when it's something caused by a corrupted file, changing debug to true in web.config and then back to false usually clears it. However i've only heard about this happening maybe half a dozen times in the past 5 years on these forums so it's incredibly rare.
