I have read numerous module creation/development tutorials on the web and in the Professional DNN4 book, but none of these seem to be the same as in DNN 4.8.

The latest DNN Module development tutorial I am reading is: http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN_Module4/DotNetNuke_module_2.htm

However at the end of the first page I should have a ready to use module, but I get the following:

Error: CurrencyConverter is currently unavailable.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: The stored procedure 'dbo.YourCompany_GetCurrencyConverters' doesn't exist. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: The stored procedure 'dbo.YourCompany_GetCurrencyConverters' doesn't exist. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.DeriveParameters() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommandBuilder.DeriveParameters(SqlCommand command) at Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data.SqlHelperParameterCache.DiscoverSpParameterSet(SqlConnection connection, String spName, Boolean includeReturnValueParameter, Object[] parameterValues) at Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data.SqlHelperParameterCache.GetSpParameterSetInternal(SqlConnection connection, String spName, Boolean includeReturnValueParameter) at Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data.SqlHelperParameterCache.GetSpParameterSet(String connectionString, String spName, Boolean includeReturnValueParameter) at Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data.SqlHelperParameterCache.GetSpParameterSet(String connectionString, String spName) at Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data.SqlHelper.ExecuteReader(String connectionString, String spName, Object[] parameterValues) at YourCompany.Modules.CurrencyConverter.SqlDataProvider.GetCurrencyConverters(Int32 ModuleId) at YourCompany.Modules.CurrencyConverter.CurrencyConverterController.GetCurrencyConverters(Int32 ModuleId) at YourCompany.Modules.CurrencyConverter.ViewCurrencyConverter.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

I then go to the second page (http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN_Module4/DotNetNuke_module_3.htm) and about half way down the page it shows the file structure of the DesktopModules/Guestbook folder and in there is a file called GuestBook.SQLDataProvider. Where does this come from? I don't have this in my folder? Is it no longer created in DNN 4.8? Do I need this?

I guess what my REAL question is, is there a NEW, bang-up-to-date module development tutorial out there that shows how to do this in v4.8?

 HELP Please!!!

I've not seen an updated tutorial utilizing the 4.8 starter kit.

I can tell you that the 4.8 starter kit does not create a GuestBook.SQLDataProvider.  Instead, you'll want to import the manifest, GuestBook.dnn, via the Module Definition -> Import Module Definition.  Just select the GuestBook.dnn file from the manifest dropdown and click Import Manifest.

I hope this helps...

No you can still develop in DNN 4.8 using Visual Studio 2005
