I'm trying to set DNN 5.01 up in VS2008 so I can develop against it.  With previous versions of DNN this was relatively simple with me just going in and adding a portal alias in the form:

localhost:1234/website

when DNN was installed in a folder named "website".  Now this isn't working.

I've read all the threads about port numbers not working well in 5.xx and I've uncommented "UsePortalNumber" and added the correct portal alias through SQL Server.  However I still get the redirect error.

I would like to run DNN from the web server within VS2008 so I can debug and set breakpoints.  I'm sure I'm not the first to encounter this problem.  How are other people doing DNN 5.xx development and debugging?

Thanks,

BK

I guess it would be helpful if anyone could confirm that they are indeed able to do module development agains 5.01 or greater.  Are you able to get redirection to work so that you can debug in Visual Studio 2008 and set breakpoints?

I just want to know that it's possible and working - I won't pester you with questions about your setup.

My next steps are:

Flush DNS and try again

Delete the Visual Studio project, rebuild and try again

Try to move the website around so the portal alias is locahost:1234 rather than localhost:1234/website and try again

Install a fresh copy of 5.01.02, migrate all of my custom modules and skins and try again.

thanks,

BK

Personally I recommend using IIS rather than the built in VS web server for working with DNN.  It simplifies a lot of things.

I'd like to do that too but I'm not sure it's possible.  My IIS6 is running on a server across the network.  I have it pointed at this website and that's how I"ve gotten as much of the work done on this site as I have.  But I don't know if it's possible to connect the debugging facility of VS2008 running on my workstation with the IIS running on my server.

If this is what you're doing can you point me to an article with info about setting it up?

Thanks
