its saving all the contents correctly but while retrieving am getting Null object reference error..

ERROR mojoPortal.Web.AdminUI.ModuleSettingsPage - ModuleSettings.aspx.cs error getting resource for s.SettingName
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at mojoPortal.Web.AdminUI.ModuleSettingsPage.AddSettingControl(CustomModuleSetting s, Panel groupPanel)

Re: Null Object reference

The best way to debug this would be to set a breakpoint at the start of retrieving, run in debug mode, and step through the code until you find the statement causing the null object reference. You may just have an uninitialized variable somewhere. This video should help you with the process, if you haven't already gone through the developer video series.

Hope that helps,

Jamie

Re: Null Object reference

This is a known/previously reported issue that is already fixed in the source code repository. There is a workaround mentioned on this thread if you can't use the latest source code.

Hope that helps,

Joe
