Hi,

I'm packaging up a fresh install of 4.3.1 for my remote host.

I noticed some files that I assumed where unnecessary and deleted them.

However if I try a local test and it fails. I get a simple error referring to : cannton load DotNetNuke.Common.Global in the global.aspx (which is there.)

I removed all *.vb and the App_code and App_data directories and any other files (DotNetNuke.vstemplate etc) that I assumed are not required.

Are these files left in fora reason?

Cheers,

Colin

I would not remove them.  Visual Basic implements a option called "code-behind" pages where the application logic code can be seperated from the web content (presentation) and they are stored as .vb files....so theorically, your website can stop working.

If you're using a compiled version (Install version or your compiled version) there aren't many .vb files (they are compiled in the dll files under the bin folder.  If you use a source version to start with and don't compile, then you will have many. 

Did you try compiling - using VS2003/2005?
