Hi Everybody,

Who can explains why can not use 'reports module' in DNN 5? I actually like this module very much but can not use it in DNN 5, what happend and who has resolution?

Really thanks.

The version numbers are actually an unfortunate coincidence.  The Reports Module has only been tested (and is thus only officially supported on) the 4.x versions of DNN.  From what I can tell, the issues arising on DNN 5.0 relate to a breaking change made in the Extensions Installer.  Since it appears that the Reports Module is one of the only modules (outside the core) that was using that installer, it is not supported on DNN 5.0.

It is, unfortunately, even more confused by the fact that the Reports Module appears to be distributed with DNN 5.0, implying that it is compatible when it is not.

I am working on a minor update (5.1) which should fix this issue, and hope to have it into the release process in the next week or so.
