SharePoint 2007 Problem After Feb 2010 CU

We just applied the SharePoint 2007 Feb CU and there were no errors in the update process. The problem is whenever we attempt to work with columns in a list (add or update) we get the following error:

Culture ID 1164 (0x048C) is not a supported culture. Parameter name: culture

This error happen on existing lists as well as newly created lists. Any assistance is appreciated.

  • Look for a Feb CU for the different language packs you have installed or uninstall the language packs you have installed.

    Ben : Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't have any language packs installed on this farm.

  • After a call to MS support, we managed to get this one resolved. I don't know if this is something others will run into, but for some reason a VERY old version of the Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.dll was loaded into the GAC on the server. This DLL should be located in the app_bin folder of each web application on the farm. After we removed the DLL from the GAC everything started working. We could not come up with a reason for why that DLL was in the GAC, but the server had been around since January of 2007.

    Mike : These kinds of problems are why we are iffy to do any updates...

  • Ben's Answer helped us. We had a newer version of the dll in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\CONFIG\BIN\ and an older version in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80_app_bin. I think there may have been a problem when I ran the Sharepoint Configuration Wizard after applying the Cumulitive updates. I replaced the older version with the newer, restarted iis, and it resolved the error.
