FYI - Here is my module code.. I took it from the JobsModule example

using System;

using System.Linq;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Services;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Abstractions;

using Telerik.Sitefinity;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Libraries.Model;

using Telerik.Web.UI;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Model;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Modules.Pages.Configuration;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Pages.Model;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Configuration;

namespace UserTracking

public class UserTrackingModule : ModuleBase

public const string ModuleName = "UserTracking";

//pre generated guid as the ID for this page in the database

public static readonly Guid landingPageId = new Guid("B6F1EBE7-24F5-4103-8098-C57EC4804E79");

public override Guid LandingPageId

get

return UserTrackingModule.landingPageId;

//pre generated guid as the sub page for this module in the database

public static readonly Guid subPageId = new Guid("DB99FD93-BD14-4539-BA72-30F2FDDC31AE");

public Guid SubPageId

get

return UserTrackingModule.subPageId;

public override Type[] Managers

get

return null;

public override void Install(SiteInitializer initializer)

var moduleNode = initializer.PageManager.GetPageNode(SiteInitializer.ModulesNodeId);

var pageManager = initializer.PageManager;

var userTrackingNode = pageManager.GetPageNodes().Where(p => p.Id == LandingPageId).SingleOrDefault();

if (userTrackingNode == null)

userTrackingNode = initializer.CreatePageNode(LandingPageId, moduleNode);

userTrackingNode.Name = "UserTracking";

userTrackingNode.ShowInNavigation = true;

userTrackingNode.Attributes["ModuleName"] = UserTrackingModule.ModuleName;

userTrackingNode.Title = "UserTracking";

userTrackingNode.UrlName = "UserTracking";

var subPage = pageManager.GetPageNodes().Where(p => p.Id == SubPageId).SingleOrDefault();

if (subPage == null)

var pageInfo = new PageElement()

PageId = SubPageId,

Name = "UserTrackingConfiguration",

MenuName = "UserTrackingConfiguration",

UrlName = "UserTrackingConfiguration",

Description = "User Tracking Configuration",

ShowInNavigation = false,

TemplateName = SiteInitializer.BackendTemplateName

;

pageInfo.Parameters["ModuleName"] = UserTrackingModule.ModuleName;

var control = new UserTrackingConfiguration();

var node = initializer.CreatePageFromConfiguration(pageInfo, userTrackingNode, control);

The error occurs on this line:

var userTrackingNode = pageManager.GetPageNodes().Where(p => p.Id == LandingPageId).SingleOrDefault();

ok, I figured this one out.... in this line of code....

var userTrackingNode = pageManager.GetPageNodes().Where(p => p.Id == LandingPageId).SingleOrDefault();

I had used LandingPageID - the property, and not landingPageID, the variable.

Simple mistake, took all day to find it though.

Why would that matter? Isn't it the same guid, regardless of whether you get to it thru a property or an instance variable?
