These files do not come with a webconfig.file. So I ddi some reading and found a post that says to make  Make a new copy of resources.config and name it web.config and then add the followign changes.:

Update web.config in use the SQLexpress section.

1. In <connectionstrings> area,    
   <add
         name="SiteSqlServer"
              connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Database=MyDB;User ID=MyLogin;Password=mypwd;Connection Timeout=5"
         providerName=”System.Data.SqlClient” />
2. In <appsettings> area
   <add
         name="SiteSqlServer"
         connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Database=MyDB;User ID=MyLogin;Password=mypwd;Connection Timeout=5"
         providerName=”System.Data.SqlClient” />
3. In <providers> area (line 372), added the DNN table prefix
   objectQualifier="dnn_"

So when i go to look for the file named resources.config there is none. I only found a file named release config which I copied renamed web.config and then added the changes to it.

OF course I cannot get it to run in VS. I open VS 2005. I then try yo opne the project dotnetnuke. I get an error stating:"the site 'http://localhost/DotNetNuke_Maintenance' has not been configured for use with ASP.Net 2.0. MVS has been designed for use with ASP.NET 2.0 if not configured some features may make incorrect assumptions and pages designed with the tool may nor render correctly. Would you like the site to be configured now?  I click YES.  Error message saying: Configuring web site http://localhost/DotNetNuke_Maintenace to ASP>NET 2.0 failed. You may need to manually configuer this site for ASP>NET 2.0 in order for the site to run correctly. How do I do that because I get this error message when I try to view the DotNetNuke project in a browser.:

XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
