I'm trying to migrate an existing 6.01.01 site to Windows Azure web pages for testing some new features. I had so much trouble going about doing so that I decided to start over and just get version 6.1.1 running on Azure from the community install. Now I'm running into an error when I finish the InstallWizard. The exception in the log is as follows:
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.PageLoadException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at DotNetNuke.Framework.DefaultPage.InitializePage()
at DotNetNuke.Framework.DefaultPage.OnInit(EventArgs e)
at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer)
at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)
--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
Does anyone have any idea on what might be causing this or even how to debug it? I'm very new to Azure and DNN.
NOTE: In order to get the InstallWizard to work I had to make a few changes to the web.config file. They are as follows:
replace the default db string with our SQL azure string
put in a long request timeout
comment out the url rewriting modules

Just created an application with the Bot Framework, from the template downloaded here: http://aka.ms/bf-bc-vstemplate.
It works well in the testing Emulator. But when publishing to the IIS server, I got this error:
Error Web deployment task failed. ((5/6/2016 3:03:54 PM) An error occurred when the request was processed on the remote computer.)

Unrecognized rule 'AppOffline'. ParkingBot 0
What is the AppOffline error?
I worked around it by doing the following:
locate the .pubxml file for your deployment
toggle EnableMSDeployAppOffline True to
False.
You may need this feature, so it might not be an option. However my application doesn't have this requirement.
Make sure you have the latest version of IIS Web Deploy installed on your server. I was getting this error.
I needed to install Web Deploy 3.6 on our server fixed it.
Check to see if you have a file named app_offline.htm in your deployment folder. That file is for when you're deploying and want to prevent logins on the site until you're done. That file might not have been deleted after deployment.
To add on to jbtule's answer (https://stackoverflow.com/a/49635669/7733418), you might also need to DOWNGRADE to version 3.6. I had Web Deploy 4 installed and was getting the "Unrecognized rule 'AppOffline'" error, but after uninstalling version 4 and installing version 3.6, deployment with <EnableMSDeployAppOffline>True</EnableMSDeployAppOffline>
worked immediately.
I am working with Sitefinity as a solution in Visual Studio 2012. I'm on a 64bit machine. I just installed Windows Identity Manager as I was getting another error before that and it was related to not having that installed. Now I am receiving this error:

http://www.sitefinity.com/developer-network/knowledge-base/getting-type-is-not-resolved-for-member-microsoft-identitymodel-claims-claimsprincipal-exception
which is what led me to installing the Microsoft identity Manager. I'm not sure how to get past this issue.
There are bugs in Microsoft's DeflateStream implementation prior to .Net 4.5.
See here:
.NET [4 and previous] users should not use the Microsoft-provided
GZipStream or DeflateStream classes under any circumstances, unless
Microsoft replaces them completely with something that works.
This bug was never fixed by Microsoft for earlier versions of the .NET framework than 4.5
As for the difference between Firefox and IE - they might be interacting differently with IIS while using gzip compression, Fiddler might be able to tell you more about the differences in your situation if you look at the raw HTTP requests and responses. Check if the request sequence looks the same between browsers. My gut feeling is that Firefox is falling back to no compression and IE isn't, but without a test bed I won't be able to help further.
You could try these three solutions in increasing order of desperation:
See if you can change the app pool in IIS for the SiteFinity application and your .NET framework target inside Visual Studio to target .NET 4.5 where their GZIP DeflateStream method was fixed.
Attempt to disable GZIP compression in IIS for this application. Follow the instructions found here in reverse. I would try this last because there will be a bandwidth penalty for your server and all users, affecting the user experience.
Install the DotNetZip Library, and override Microsoft's implementation of System.IO.Compression.DeflateStream to call a compatible method that doesn't have the same bug.
I have searched every where (I think) and I have not been able to find the answer, maybe because it is so elementary but here goes. I recently deployed a Silverlight Business Application to the Windows Azure platform. I am using Crystal Reports for my reporting and everything was working fine. I need to run the app in SSL, so I purchased a certificate and followed the instructions to get the app up and running and again everything works great except for the reports. When I access the site with via http I have no problems printing my reports. But via https I get the following when I attempt print a report:

I am almost certain that there is a permission issue using Crystal Reports with SSL but I have no idea what to do. Has anyone had this problem? HELP PLEASE!
since your stack trace shows that Load Report Failed, the first thing i would do is to check whether you have the report in your project and your code is able to access the report.
i know everything works fine using HTTP. Also, make sure that you have read write permissions on the folder where you store your reports.
the problem is not in your crystal report. the problem because ssl don't want to load pdf file.
Display pdf in iframe using ssl/https based
you can try to download pdf viewer in chrome store it's work in ssl and for me.
best regard.

Any advice or help to resolve this is highly appreciated, thanks!
I know it's been a while since you asked this but having just solved something very similar I thought I'd share my (simple) solution.
Make sure you have a site collection created at the root of the web app.
I was working on a web part in http: //webapp/sites/mysitecollection and had the above error. Looking at http: //webapp gave me a 404 so I created a root site collection and now the datepicker in my sitecollection works fine.
In my email today I got the following:
The My Site of is scheduled for deletion. As their manager you are now the temporary owner of their site. This temporary ownership gives you access to the site to copy any business-related information you might need. To access the site use this URL: http://mysites.mycompany.com/personal/
I click on the link and I can see that there site is there. I do not want there site to be deleted at all what can I do.
When I search for the user using the PeopleSearchBoxEx web part the user comes up but when I click on there name I get the error:
Server Error in '/' Application.

Any idea how I can stop this person from being "delete" and get there profile to work again?
I experience the same error.
I changed the primary site collection admin to myself on this mysite and that worked. This message is coming from the primary site collection admin being the user that has been deleted.
Go to central admin > application management > site collection administrators and choose your mysite application and then your user site collection for this site.
It looks like the user has already been deleted (possibly due to sync with AD) but not yet removed from the search index. You'll need to look into what caused the user to be removed.
