Input string was not in a correct format.

I have successfully installed mojoportal on Godaddy. I plan to add a tutorial on the steps I took for other users if thats ok.

The question I have now is about an error I frequently get when changing the skin for the site as admin.

Any Ideas? Here is the error.

I'm using mysql since godaddy restricts mssql size to 200mb, but mysql size is subtracted from disk quota.

Server Error in '/mojo' Application.

Input string was not in a correct format.

Re: Input string was not in a correct format.

The site settings page could use a little better validation, I will look into improving it, it would be better to trap this error and give a good error message on the page.

I suspect you are inputing something invalid in a field that expects an integer. I don't really see how changing the skin can cause this error. I can create the error by inputing something invalid, but not otherwise.

Best,

Joe

Re: Input string was not in a correct format.

Ok. I will download the site and step through the code and see whats up.

I'll post the results for future usage.

Thanks, Joe
