Hi there

Can anyone advise me about this problem: In Visual Studio 2008, I have an issue trying to create a new project using the Codeplex DNN compiled module template, which I believe is the standard starting point. It is the template available from here, you will know it already: http://christoctemplate.codeplex.com/

I have tried installing and using it as per the documentation on two independent installations of Visual Studio 2008, with exactly the same result, which makes me think there may be something amiss with the template, or the way I am using it, or with the default installation of VS2008. When I try to create the new project, even if I use a blank solution, I consistently get this error:

Unable to copy the file 'DotNetNuke_VB_Compiled_Module1.dnn' from the project template to the project. Cannot find file 'C:\Documents and Settings\<MyUsername>\Local Settings\Temp\1qqovgit.dk2\Temp\DotNetNuke_VB_Compiled_Module1.dnn'. 

Obviously,  'DotNetNuke_VB_Compiled_Module1' is just the default name for the project that I am accepting, but why is it looking for a DNN manifest file in that temporary location, and if it is so determined to look there for a manifest, why is there no file there for it to find? Can anybody explain how to fix this? Is it a hard-coded file reference that shouldn't be there? It doesn't seem to a directory that I am asking for it to look in, I'm just using the template straight out of the download.

Please help!

Regards
