Hi,

I am trying to get my DNN7 module development environment set up and have come across an issue using the VS2012 module template described here

http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Blogs/EntryId/3471/New-Visual-Studio-2012-Project-Templates-for-DotNetNuke.aspx

I have set the project up as per the documentation as per the dnndev method, I built the module in debug mode and created the new module pack. When I added the module to a page I get this error below however I do not understand why

Thanks for the help

Mark

It would seem that by going into the IIS an changing the module folder to an application corrects this error. I would like to ask, is this necessary? Will this be an issue when the module is built as an installable package?

Make sure that there isn't also a web.config file in the module's directory.
