Hi, I installed the community edition with the full source (using the file "DotNetNuke_Community_05.01.04_Source"). When I went through the installation of my portal I choose the "Custom" option (as opposed to "Typical" or "Auto"). When I got to the page in the wizard where you can select the modules you want to install, I installed everything. It seemed to go fine, but when I loaded the solution file in Visual Studio 2008 and built it, it complains because none of the code-behind files are present for the additional modules. For example, in the "DesktopModules\Store" folder, the AddressEdit.ascx is there, but there's no AddressEdit.ascx.cs code-behind, even though the .ascx file references it. Why didn't these get installed and where do I find them?

Thanks!

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the answer... I think I'm starting to understand this now. It just seems a little odd not to include the code-behind along with the modules since I thought this version of the installer (the "source" version) is intended to be used from a development environment. If you can't do a compile after installing it, it's very confusing (especially to us newbies).

Anyway, thanks again for the answer.

Phil

PS: if you are starting module development, have a look at Michael Washington's tutorials at dotnetnuke.adefwebserver.com.
