I have used dot netnuke for a Univeristy project and I have to write a report about it. Can some one pelase help by answering the following questions I would really appreciated it.

1. Where are all the installed modules stored on the database and how can I view all the tabels of the dotnetnuke database?

2. When adding a module e.g. an annoucments a forum or a news page module, where is the data stored and how do the modules work? (When a user adds an anncoument where is that annocument stored in the database , in which entity, and how will I be able to show the stored data  to my tutor?)

3. I need to do a dataflow diagram  and a logical data diagram(to show the database enteties and their relationships) I need to know how where data is stored first and view it.

Finally when i installed dotnetnuke, I did not create a database myself I guess this is done in the installation process does dotnetnuke use database.mdf sto store data?

Many thanks to all of you,

Skips

Many thanks, I will give it a go and see how it works..

Cheers again.

Did you do Step 3 properly to modify the connection string?  That is your problem.  Once you convert the database from a "User Instance" configuration the connection string MUST change in Web.config.

By the way, tell us more about the reaction of your professor to DNN.  What school are you attending?  Are you the only one doing the project on DNN or was it assigned to the whole class?
