I read through the instructions again and I didn't see anything saying to setup a virtual directory. How do I set that up since I need it to point to http://dnndev.me/DesktopModules/Gen_W...?

I did what you said and got the solution to open and now I am trying to do the things required in the documentation.html file and am running into a problem at the Under 'Servers', make sure to "Use IIS Web Server" with a project url of http://dnndev.me/desktopmodules/Gen_W... and an Override application root URL of http://dnndev.me/ part. When it asks me to create virtual directory it gives me a warning "Unable to create the virtual directory. Could not find the server 'http://dnndev.me?DeesktopModules/Gen_WorkOrder' on the local machine. Creating avirtual directory is only supported on the local IIS server. I suspect that I may have an issue with Microsoft WebMatrix installed and the app cannot find the local installtion of IIS. I installed DNN the first time using the WebMatrix and then decided to install IIS and worked through the instructions listed in my original post and I wonder if that is causing a problem.

You don't want to use a virtual directory. If you see that option, don't select it.

OK, but the iinstructions in the Documentation.html that opens whens the package is created says that is what I should do. I will give it a try and see what happens when I try to execute the app.

I don't recall that but post it in this thread if you see instructions to do that.
