Initial Welcome Text Caused Unhandled Exception?

I installed a clean installation using SQLite as the data source. I setup the image gallert directory, added some plain users, a newsletter.

I then modified the welcome text page. When I clicked [update], I saw an admin UI with mojoPortal talking about what it was updating... When it was done, I was back at the welcome text area, with none of my text there. I re-did the text, clicked [update], and got a general web site failure message.

 

Looking at the currentlog.config file shows this:

Re: Initial Welcome Text Caused Unhandled Exception?

Hi,

The only thing I can think of that might be causing a null reference exception when you click that button is the index builder providers which are used to populate the search index.

First thing I would try is do a search, this will initialize the search index if it isn't already created.

Next I would look and make sure the config files are present and not empty (ie they should be about 1kb each). They should be in the Web/Setup/indexbuilderconfig folder.

Hope it helps,

Joe
