Error occurred when editing the content which has type of XHTML string (>255)
In your model class, or pagetype, what is the return type of the property. It should look something like this
public virtual XhtmlString MainBody{get;set;} Is that what you have for your property

For me this is a upgrade site
[Display(Name = "Main Body", GroupName = SystemTabNames.Content, Order = 3)]
public virtual XhtmlString MainBody{get;set;}
This is how I define a mainbody with xhtmlstring, the same as you Joshua.

These in an issue with a custom table in the DDS that holds the information about the settings for the Tiny MCE editor that may happen when upgrading to EPiServer CMS 7. The support team has a fix for this so please open a support case to get hold of this.

adding the bug number for references:
Bug #91274: [Upgrade] Can't open edit mode of Home page ( OPE and Form Editing)

Linus: Why can't you just post the fix here? I'm guessing it's just some SQL script that corrects the problem?

But trying to open one of the settings (ui/cms/Admin/EditPageTypeGlobalSettings.aspx?value=ec8d4e3f-7f43-4831-af04-b85810552a4d) still gives me the error below. I'm running Patch 1, maybe that's part of the problem?

Is this still a problem?
The script Linus supplied should've fixed this issue. At least judging from your call stack and the information at hand.

The script made it worse. All settings then caused the crash. I had to create new global settings and went with them.
