Hi,
(note: I posted sth similiar before, sorry if I'm repeating myself)

I want to deploy my first module, which I took a bit of a different approach that what one get from the module template I've used.

One thing is that I used MS Enterprise Library for my data access.
The required dll's for this must go to to the DNN installation bin folder (easy if I could do that manually, but I'd like to have a "self contained' installation package, and also do not have that kind off access to our server)
Another is that I got 2 custom libraries I created.

Now I need all these to be included in the "installation package" but so far all attempts to do so failed.

While the folllowing have MyModule.dll included in the package, the MyLib1.dll and MyLib2.dll do not get included (even though I made them build to my module's bin folder)

<component type="Assembly">
          <assemblies>
            <basePath>bin</basePath>
            <assembly>
              <name>MyModule.dll</name>
            </assembly>
            <assembly>
              <name>MyLib1.Core.dll</name>
            </assembly>
            <assembly>
              <name>MyLib2.Data.dll</name>
            </assembly>
          </assemblies>
        </component>

        <component type="File">
          <files>
            <basePath>bin</basePath>
            <file>
              <name>MyLib1.Core.dll</name>
            </file>
            <file>
              <name>MyLib2.Data.dll</name>
            </file>
          </files>
         </component>

What I should even try for the Enterprise library dll's I got no clue. 

BIG PLEASE.  I hardly finished this project on time (first time) and now are completely *** since I don't know how to deploy.  (Only way I can do that is via the DNN module installation wizard, so NEED a fully self contained installlation package.

thats odd, at first glance that looks fine - are you sure your folder structure is correct -its possible to accidentally create a zip where the files are not in the root (e.g. zipping up the folder rather than the contents of the folder). As an alternative you could use a resourecfile http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Wiki/Page/Manifest-ResourceFile-Component.aspx
