This is a generic error message. However, could you please check DNP Server event log on the server if there is any errors related to the issue? Certainly there should be something...

What's really strange is that I have created a user account, created space, web site and it's all working.

When I wanted to do the same for another hosting plan it crashed and doesn't work for the other account anymore.

Problem solved.

The error was caused by using prefix/suffix tags in Policy settings.
I removed the prefix and suffix and it works now but this would mean it's a bug in DNNP.

BTW, do you remeber what were the prefix/suffix settings?

I used the [USER_NAME] tag in prefix because I wanted the accounts grouped by user.
