Hey guys!

I've got a problem which is surely very easy to resolve if you know the answer. I am searching since yesterday and i still don't have a clue.

I have written a small module, which has a button and a lable. When the user clicks the button, the label should show some text (e.g. "HelloWorld"). This module works great on my local dnn-installation (which i've opened in Visual Studio "File"->"Open"->"Website"). But when i copy the *.ascx and *.ascx.cs-files on the server it does not work any more.

Where do i have to paste the files? I have found a tutorial (http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN4_SurveyModule/) which contains this tip:

"The Web User Controls and their associated code behind files reside in the Module's directory that is in DesktopModules directory."

But when i copy those files in the "%pathtodnn%\DesktopModules\HelloWorld"-directory it just don't work.

I can create a new module and the HelloWorld-module appears in the dropdown-field where i can add a module to a specific pane. When i choose the HelloWorld-module and I add it to the content pane, the site reloads and it doesn't happen anything. There is no module.

I'm sorry for my english, but i tried hard to write good english =)

Thanks a lot!

Hi!

Thanks for your answer!

I don't know how to create a dnn-file, but i have created a a new moduledefinition by clicking on "Create Module Definition".

I don't understand this sentence: "make sure you have at least one control that has no key, that will be the control that will be loaded by default by dnn." Which key do you mean? 

How can i turn module caching off? I have found unter "Host"->"Host Settings"->"Performance Settings" the option "module caching method". I can choose "Memory" and "Disk". The option "Disk" is chosen by default.

Is it okay that i've copied the files to the DestopModules-directory?

Many thanks!
