does anyone have a solution for this? i'm having the same problem, V4.3.4. hosted server, new intall, everything appears to work except for the when i go to Settings for the Forum and Events modules (maybe more, these 2 so far), i get the following:
An error has occurred.
Error: Module is currently unavailable.
i've tried deleting the module and installing the latest version. ( forums 3.20.08). the same thing happens with the events module. there may be others too, those are the 2 i've come accross.
also, with the forum module, when i insert it on a page, i get the following error at the top of the content pane:
A critical error has occurred.
Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 64
if i delete the module, the error remains until i close the browser and log in again. this does not happen with the events module.
