We recently purchased the module but having problems installing the module to a portal.
The DNN version we are using is: 05.00.01

and getting this error:

A critical error has occurred.
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Any ideas?

here is this error:

The error is happening within the DNN code, not the GSP code, so it might be a bug with DNN. I did a little googling and found a couple related hits:

http://www.dotnetnuke.co...posts/threadpage/1.aspx

One suggestion is that the ZIP file was corrupted. Try downloading a new one.

We have this:

The DotNetNuke application you are running DotNetNuke Product: DotNetNuke Community Edition
The DotNetNuke application version you are running DotNetNuke Version: 05.00.01
The .NET Framework version: 2.0.50727.3603, (3.0), (3.5)

Our language pack seems correct, i have already tried downloading another zip file.. Still get the same problem.

GSP 2.5 requires .NET 4.0, so if you are trying to run that under .NET 2/3/3.5, you will definitely see an issue.

We have lots of websites on the server where this particular DNN portal is located. It would be risky to upgrade the server and it would take forever to check all the other websites.

You can use GSP 2.4.8, which is supported on those versions. There isn't a whole lot of difference between that 2.4.8 and 2.5 anyway (at least, not in the DNN version).

You didn't say what you were doing when that error happened. Also notice the error is happening inside DNN, not GSP. While that still could mean there is an issue with GSP, there are no clues to help us pinpoint the cause.

I should also point out that DNN has fixed a lot of issues since 5.0.1. Although I verified GSP works on that version, there may be bug fixes since than that address certain configurations.

I recommend installing a fresh copy of DNN and then adding GSP to that. If that works, you can compare the two sites to see what is different.

It can't find the file uninstall.sqldataprovider at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DNN_mhrufc\DesktopModules\GalleryServerPro\. This is installed as part of GSP. If it no longer exists for some reason, try manually placing a copy there from the original ZIP file.

I have managed to install the module again. When i add an instance of it to the page i get an error:

Then when you check event viewer it says that there is a Module Load Exception:

How can this be an error with DNN? You said that version 2.4.8 worked with .NET 2 / 3.5? and DNN 5.01?

I did manage to upgrade my server with .net framework 4.0 but my login controls are not displaying and therefore i cannot install the paid for module that we purchased.

What else can you suggest?

I created a fresh install of DNN 5.01 and tried to install the module 2.4.8 and it partially installed to the page.

i got this error:

I have tested GSP with DNN 5.0.1 and it works fine, but I have not tested the multitude of configurations out there. It seems you may have found a configuration that does not work. The key to figuring out the root cause is determining how your version is different than the stock version I tested against.

That can be tricky to do, so I would first recommend installing the latest version of DNN and verifying GSP works on that. If so, then there must have been some bug in DNN that has been fixed along the way (and way only showing itself in your particular configuration).

The first release of DNN 5 was notorious for being buggy, so if there is any way you can move to a more recent version, that would probably bring you other benefits as well as a (likely) working version of GSP.

I installed a fresh clean copy of DNN 5.01 and installed the GSP 2.4.8 successfully.
However the current installation of my site is throwing up an error when you add an instance of the module to the page. It also doesnt want to uninstall successfully.

I cant even upgrade the installation to 5.4.2, in fact when i do the site is semi broken. Text in various areas is missing and modules error. I would love to simply upgrade and start using GSP 2.4.8.

I managed to get the original site to work with .NET Framework 4 by edditing various areas of the web.config file. The site worked fine apart from, i could not login to the site as the login controls were not showing.

The login controls not appearing is an indication the IIS app pool is running in classic mode, not Integrated Mode. Check this setting in IIS Manager or your host's control panel (not all hosts expose this as a property).

Did you restore the uninstall script as I recommended earlier?

I have access to IIS the server via RDP and the integrated setting didnt solve it.

I will try the uninstall script now.
