Hello, I am using the latest Feedback module: 3.02.01 and I can't seem to get it to compile to save my life.  I am using DNN 3.2.2.  Here are the steps I've been thru:


I installed the module using the Feedback_xxx_install.zip file through the Upload New Module option in DNN.

I verified the module installed correctly by testing the module.

I then copied the contents of the Feedback_xxx_source.zip into my DesktopModules/Feedback directory.

Loaded up my DotNetNuke_ALL.sln solution in VBNET 2003.

Added the Feedback project to the solution.

Added a reference to the Feedback to the Buildsupport project.

Built the two files without errors.

When I try to access the portal containing the module, I get the following  web error:

Stack Trace:

Can anyone please shed some light on why this isn't working?  Thanks!!

Were you able to solve this issue. I am getting the same error when I am trying to include the  moduled on a new page on the production environment,  let me know if you have any suggestions.
