I am just getting started with DNN in a new position and want to set up a Continuous Intergration server.

I was wondering if there are others that mostly does Module development and their thoughts on CI.

Right now I'm thinking about 1 build per module.

Anyone mind throwing around some ideas.  This is  also my first time with Hudson (partly because I want to try sth new, partly because it's free for an unlimited number of projects).

Thanks for the link Cathal.  I'm about to go search around there.

For starters I'm just very curious about what would one's repository setup be for dnn modules.

I'm used to a single solution with several projects (asp.net mvc that was) and one build script per solution.  (Fairly basic script I must add, since I'm not *that* experienced with MsBuild...just strongly believe in CI).

However with DNN each module seems to be a solution of it's own you have to create in the DesktopModules folder.
So far I could not create a working build script for that module itself, since it fail when I check it in, due to the DotNetNuke.dll being missing.

dont know if the above make sense?

Ok, I found a "temporary" solution, which is not to use a build script at all, but just building the solution.

Running from the command line this works just fine : msbuild .\CITestModule.sln /p:Configuration=Release

However, I want Hudson to run this (hell, I'm a hudson n00b as well) where I set the MsBuild Build File to CITestModule.sln and Command Line Arguments to /p:Configuration=Release.

However when I run a build I get an error as follows:

c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(1360,9): warning MSB3245: Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "DotNetNuke". Check to make sure the assembly exists on disk. If this reference is required by your code, you may get compilation errors. [C:\Hudson\jobs\CITestModule\workspace\CITestModule.csproj]
For SearchPath "{HintPathFromItem}".
Considered "..\..\..\bin\DotNetNuke.dll", but it didn't exist.
...and it considered a lot of other locations too long to mention here.

Anyone successfully set up a hudson build like this?
