Hi,

After a bit of a pain in the butt, I got DNN installed, working with SQL Server 2005 Express.  After installation, I was searching the web for dotnetnuke modules and most information spoke of adding a  DotNetNuke module.  I went into my project and clicked add item looking for available templates, and there was no option for a dotnetnuke module, only a dynamic dotnetnuke module.  Did I miss something in installation, choose a wrong option?

Sincerely,
Altein

I think that you probably need to step back and get a better handle on the DotNetNuke framework, how it works, and how the framework interacts with pages, modules, skins, and containers. For this, visite DNN Creative, go to the tutorials page, and view some of the tutorials aimed at newcomers.

Now ... there are a couple of places where you can "add" modules. First, you install modules into the DotNetNuke framework. Second, you place instances of installed modules on pages within your site.

When you are working on pages, there is a dropdown list in the toolbar (accessible by administrators) with which you select a previously installed module, and then place an instance of it onto the page.

If you want to install a module into the framework, you must log in as host. Then, on the host menu tab, select "Modules" and then select the option to install a module.

This is a fairly quick summary, and probably won't make a whole lot of sense. It hopefully will make more sense after you have viewed some of the tutorials. I you need more help, please ask more questions!

Thank you Mr. Craig for your information,

I am a newbie, though I have been working with DNN for two months on an DNN installation served on my ISP.  I love it.  I just installed it on my local machine.I have used a lot of the the built-in modules and I wanted to design my own module using some code I had for a web application that I wanted to add to a DNN page.  I should have mentioned that the reason I was concerned was that I had just installed DNN on my own machine and when I was going to add a new module and I chose the template for a "dotnetnuke dynamic module", I was prompted to change names of folders and what not?  So I thought I had not installed DNN correctly.

Sincerely,
Altein

While you can install modules by uploading files and adjusting settings, I think that you'll be better served by creating a "standard" zip file and doing the installation that way.

As for converting an existing web application to run inside of DNN, you'll want to locate some good tutorials and study them. In particular, look at Michael Washington's blog at the DotNetNuke site.

If others have some favorite DNN tutorials for module development, I hope that they will post them here.

The simple answer is, you use it in a module.

But, more to the point, what exactly are you trying to do? Knowing that will help answer the question.

well, it looks like their shared hosting support windows server, asp.net 2.0 and SQL server, so you may be able to run DNN as long as they allow you to setup the correct permissions on the files. - I would contact their support and ask if they have experience with DNN. If they don't I wouldn't use them and find a host that does, it will save a lot of problems in the future.

I don't see any problems with your site, so I guess you must have solved it.

I would have suggested rebooting your server first. What did you do to fix it?
