Null Object reference Error When Viewing Default Page After Successful Solution Compilation

Hi there,
I tried to set up the BV Commerce 5 developer pack with VS 2005. I followed the instruction and created the solution and loaded all the 7 projects.
On initial rebuilding of the solution, it prompted App.Config file was missing from the BVSoftware.Bvc5.Core project. The build failed. Since I could not locate the file, I removed it from the project. The subsequent rebuild of the whole solutions (7 projects) went through successfully. However when I tried to browse the default.aspx page, the error below occurred.
I suspect it has something to do with the missing App.Config file. Any help?

Removing App.Config from project file is the right thing to do. It is only used during unit testing.
The null reference exception is because the database connection is not working, so the list of rewritten URL's is null.
Check the database connection string and make sure the database was fully created and populated with the default values. |
