Here is one of the many errors that get generated
------------------------
2012-07-11 06:04:22,756 [P3NW8SHG248][Thread:63][ERROR] DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ErrorPage - Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
------------------------

when I first saw this, it was just on a skin I had purchased, the guy in china that created the skin removed references in the skin file to --
<%@Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="ACTIONS" Src="~/Admin/Containers/SolPartActions.ascx"%>
<dnn:ACTIONS runat="server" id="dnnACTIONS" ProviderName="DNNMenuNavigationProvider" ExpandDepth="1"PopulateNodesFromClient="True" />

and it appeared to solve the issue as it was only showing up on modules that were set to containers of that type, however today I went to my site (that was working just the night before) .. and the entire site was in error (that's the error I posted above) ... I host on GoDaddy and recycling the app pool seems to have resolved the issue for now ... however since its happened twice now I can help but think there is a deeper problem at work here ... I've found a few pages with Google talk reference the error or a similar one but nothing that resolves it.

Does anyone understand whats going on here? 
Is there something I can 'do / not do' to prevent this from happening again?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide...

So I found a post that suggested switching the web.config file from
debug="false"
/>
to
debug="true"
/>
and back again once the site has recompiled ... which seemed to have solved the issue again ... however I also noticed that the most recent patch seemed to address the issue as well.

Yowsa... did you ever get anywhere on this? I'm also on godaddy and the site went dead! Were you using a skin from bestdnnskins.com?

Actually, it worked, and then it didn't work later that night! And now reuploading the web.congig doesn't fix it...
