PROBLEM

Sometimes when running the DNIS Quick Setup Wizard in YourSite Explorer, it will throw an exception. 

SYMPTOMS

You may see an error like the following:

Error     1/28/2013 9:18:49 AM     YSE:Thread Exception.
--- Start Exception Stack ---
System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[System.ServiceModel.ExceptionDetail]: The formatter threw an exception while trying to deserialize the message: There was an error while trying to deserialize parameter http://ws.lhotka.net/WcfDataPortal:request. The InnerException message was 'There was an error deserializing the object . The prefix 'p' is not defined.'.  Please see InnerException for more details. (Fault Detail is equal to An ExceptionDetail, likely created by IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults=true, whose value is:

WORKAROUND

It appears that you can simply run the wizard a second time with the same values, and it will complete successfully.
