Hello,

I'm starting to develop Dotnetnuke and I downloaded the package "DotNetNuke_Community_07.00.05_Source". This package contains two solutions file: "DotNetNuke_Community_Source.sln" and "DotNetNuke_Community_UnitTests_Source.sln".

Apparently, these solution files can only be opened using Visual Studio 2012. I have installed Windows XP and Visual Studio 2010 (on Windows XP it's not alloewd to install Visual Studio 2012).

Is there any way you could open those solutions with Visual Studio 2010?.

Thanks for the help.

Best regards.

You can open the solutions with visual studio 2010 - just make sure you have the latest service pack installed.

However, I dont believe you will be able to get DNN running on windows xp - pretty sure it fails the minimum requirements for the web server.

In addition there is really no reason what so ever for you to use the Source package for doing dnn development.  Its really only there as a reference point for people that want to explore the core code base.

We do all our module development using a normal install.zip based site.

Thank you very much for the information. I installed the Visual Studio Starter Kit (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Downloads.aspx) to create Dotnetnuke projects from Visual Studio 2010.

I am using the basic install.zip to develop as you indicated.

From VS2010, I launch a website DNN7 and it opens the installer correctly. But, in step 2, when it start the installation, it never progresses from 0% of the installation. Could it be because I'm using Windows XP?

Thanks.

Minimum requirements for DNN 7 are IIS 7 (Windows Server2008 and above or Vista and above) as well as SQL Server 2008 or above.
For development use Visual Studio 2012 (Express) or above.
You only need source package for modifying the core framework (not suggested), not for developing extensions.
