Error Creating Site using New Site Wizard
Hi I am using Kentico CMS v3.1 on the applied innovations site.

I get this error whenever I try and create a site using the new site wizard.

ERROR: siteimport.createsiterooterror
Exception: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Stack trace: at CMS.CMSImportExport.ImportProvider.LogProgressError(SiteImportSettings settings, String description, String exceptionMessage, String stackTrace)
at CMS.CMSImportExport.ImportProvider.InitTreeProvider(SiteImportSettings settings)
at CMS.CMSImportExport.ImportProvider.CreateSiteRoot(SiteImportSettings settings, TranslationHelper th)

ERROR: siteimport.createsiteerror
Exception: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Stack trace: at CMS.CMSImportExport.ImportProvider.CreateSiteRoot(SiteImportSettings settings, TranslationHelper th)
at CMS.CMSImportExport.ImportProvider.CreateSiteSkeleton(SiteImportSettings settings, TranslationHelper th)

If happens all the time no matter what I do to try or options that I choose. It happens whenever the system tries to import the site objects

RE:Error Creating Site using New Site Wizard
Hello,

The problem could be that you don't have a user with "administrator"
user name. The system is using this user account by default since it is
set to be global administrator.

You may need to create a user with this user name and mark it as global
administrator. If you do not want to use this account, you can disable
it by unchecking "Enabled" box in the user account configuration.


Best regards,
Helena Grulichova
