Mark,

Thanks for your reply. I have read this post and implemented it too. However in all cases when it comes to packaging, nothing works for me! It doesn't even create the package folder at module root. I have tried the following things until now for packaging

1- After coding module, Complied the module on release mode.

2- Tried Nant for packaging (Nant gives the following error)

BUILD FAILED

Could not find a '*.build' file in 'C:\DotNetNuke\DesktopModules\ModuleName2'

For more information regarding the cause of the build failure, run the build again in debug mode.

Try 'nant -help' for more information.

 Any suggestions?????

asf the template you're using doesn't use NANT anymore. 

You should watch this video in the task manager series
