Hi,

Seems to me there is some problem with the PortalSecurity as shown in this code.

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Source Error:

Line 33:
Line 34: ' Ensure that the visiting user has access to the current page
Line 35: If PortalSecurity.IsInRoles(_portalSettings.ActiveTab.AuthorizedRoles) = False Then
Line 36: Response.Redirect(PortalSettings.ApplicationPath+"/Admin/AccessDenied.aspx")
Line 37: End If

Can someone please help me understand what is going on here??

Thank you very much,

Jeff Giesbrecht

Usually this error happens when the portal can't load the tabs. You can
check and see if that is the case by setting a break point in the
constructor of the PortalSettings class :

public PortalSettings(int tabIndex, int tabId, string LanguageId)

Then a little ways down:

...
while(result.Read())
{
TabStripDetails tabDetails = new TabStripDetails();
tabDetails.TabId = (int) result["TabId"];
tabDetails.TabName = (String) result["TabName"];

...

step through the code and see if it reads any tabs. Perhaps the database
didn't get installed?

HTHs,
Brian
