Object Reference errors are showing up in the DNN logs. If you attempt to access a folder at the download.aspx address you get an error.

For example, http://www.roguewave.com/...oad.aspx?entryid=951

951 is actually a folder.

Accessing via a DMX page gives you the folder as expected, no error:

http://www.roguewave.com/...nts.aspx?EntryId=951

or (admin required):

http://www.roguewave.com/...ult.aspx?EntryId=951

This only seems to apply to folders. If a File EntryId is not found, the expected 404 page is returned.

Here is the full stacktrace:

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]
Bring2mind.DNN.Modules.DMX.Services.Storage.StorageProvider.InstanceByProviderId(Int32 ProviderId) +458
Bring2mind.DNN.Modules.DMX.Download.ᜂ() +9075

System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() +70
System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) +3177


Note, you will only get the friendly error on the live site, so I included a dev site screenshot: http://prntscr.com/rlpzi

I'll look into this. Are you on version 6.1.3 of the module? And also: the expected behavior for you is to zip up and download or to just error out with a not found? I'm wondering what you're expecting from the module when a user requests to download a folder.

Currently 6.1.0. For our case, displaying the folder (or DMX root) using a redirect would be best. A 404 would work too I guess. Perhaps it needs to be an option as some would like to zip and download the folder?

Could you tell me how you go to the download url? Which UI action took you there? If I try the regular Ajax UI here, I can only get there through right-click and selecting "zip and download" which takes one to download but with the following pattern:
GET /DesktopModules/Bring2mind/DMX/Download.aspx?language=en-US&Command=Core_Download&EntryList=ent1473&PortalId=0&TabId=81
And that pattern works fine.
