    Default error messages on Admin homepage

    In version 9.0.13 (VB version), I'm getting the following message for two sections of the admin home page.

    Exception=Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

    The message is being displayed under the "Security Alert" area and the News feed area.

    The following line is causing the error in the "Security Alert" area.

    <aspdnsf:XmlPackage ID="SecurityFeed" runat="server" PackageName="rss.aspdnsfrssconsumer.xml.config" RuntimeParams="channel=security&height=400&width=3 30" />

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Default

    I was able to figure out a fix:

    using
    <asp:Literal ID="SecurityFeed" runat="server" Text="<%$ Tokens: Xmlpackage, rss.aspdnsfrssconsumer.xml.config,channel=security &height=400&width=330 %>" />

    instead of

    <aspdnsf:XmlPackage ID="SecurityFeed" runat="server" PackageName="rss.aspdnsfrssconsumer.xml.config" RuntimeParams="channel=security&height=400&width=3 30" />

    Works.
