Exception: "Invalid cast from 'System.Int32' to 'System.IntPtr'. " when configuring Mirroring 1.0

I have been trying to configure Mirroring 1.0 on an EPiServer CMS 6.0 website. Everything is fine until I set up the destination to the remote website settings and I get the following exception when I try opening the definition.

The mirroring channel is set to mirror everything from the root page down, so I set the destination Name to 'MirroringTarget', the Remote Site to the remote website definition I created earlier (which pings fine) and set the Root page on destination to the id of the root page (268 in this case).

Once I press save I get the exception above.

Any suggestions (other than use Mirroring 2.0) would be greatfully recieved?

Thanks
Jim

I have the same problem after upgrading a site from 4 to 6 R2. Did you have any solution or an open ticket with support?

John, there is a registered and fixed bug on it. But I think it's only valid if you run ASP.NET 4.0

Bug #74366: Mirroring 1.0 doesn't work in CMS 6 R2

ok, is this bug fixed in the latest version of R2 that was released in march? If not, is there a hotfix for this?

If it was fixed in the march version then I have a problem - I am using the version from March (assembly 6.1.379.0 with file version 6.1.379.501)

Just spoke with EPiServer support about it, they have fixed it but haven't created a hotfix for it.
