I'm working on a DNN 6 installation and for some reason all of my admin (even as a super user) menus/options are no longer accessible.
Every time I try to access a simple menu like Admin > Site Settings I get this error:

Any hints as to what could be happening?
Thank you!
Looking at this, it looks like you are using a custom Skin Object called "ArtMenuSkinObject" and it is having trouble.
You will want to check with the developer of the skin object.

Having an issue with my Search Results module after an upgrade from DNN 7 -> DNN 9.2.2
Everytime I search using DNN's Xcillion (built in search) I keep getting "A critical error has occurred. Please check the Event Viewer for further details." (/Default.aspx?tabid=87&error=Object+reference+not+set+to+an+instance+of+an+object.&content=0) error on the search results page.
I have tried to re-index via deleting content in search folder i.e https://dnnsupport.dnnsoftware.com/hc/en-us/articles/360004881174-Search-Not-Showing-Expected-Results
have backed up old files from /desktopmodules/admin/searchresults and added in fresh ones incase something went wrong during installation, same with DLL files that might effect the search to no avil.
Any hints or ideas would be awesome, everything else works correctly on this instance of DNN just cant figure this error out.

Did you follow the recommended upgrade path, or did you do this in a single step?
Do you have the option to revert and try the upgrade again?
I'm trying to resolve an issue we have specific to using REDIS cache on our web apps but need help understanding the stacktrace.
We intermittently get Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation logged in our error table when users are viewing the report viewer, but there are no signs client side that anything has gone wrong.
I've had a read through this article: How to solve: "exception was thrown by the target of invocation" C# however it doesn't seem to cover our specific issue.
The stacktrace logged by our logger;

Looks to be an issue during Deserialization. Could the class definition have changed between when it was serialized and when it is being deserialized?

The exception happens if the system cannot find any page templates (I made some changes so in the next version there will be a more appropriate exception message).
You should check the server log for additional details. Could be something wrong with the configuration ("/App_Data/Composite/Composite.config" file) or with the templates itself.
I'm having some problem with getting XForms to work in a block in EPiServer 7. It's webforms and not MVC.
XForms works when I put them on a normal page, but when I use them on blocks I get a null exception. See below.

I tried to compare with the Alloy templates, but find no difference that should break it like this.
I also tried to debug, but it doesn't stop at any break points that could give any information.
Anyone know what the problem could be? Thankful for any help.
I found the solution to this problem, but not why the problem occured. My guess would be that episerver cached the renderer and try to access an older version of it that did not exist.
Solution was that the renderer for the block seemed to be corrupt in some way. What I did was to delete the webcontrol that was the renderer, enter edit mode and get the error "no renderer was found for block and then create it again.
So the problem the problem seems not to have been with the xforms module.
I get this error when I load a page that uses a specific skin (GeneralContentPage). I have deleted the ascx page and parsed the skins again but still have the same error. Would appreciate any input!
An error has occurred.

Thanks

If skin is set at portal level. go to site settings and change the skin to default (minimal extropy)
If skin is ste at tab level, you have to go to Host > Sql and reset the skin src of the tab.
