Hi,
every body.I want to learn dotnetnuke. I am new in this technology.Currently i am working in .Net only.
I want to build a page in dotnetnuke.How can I do this. what should i do so that i can build and run one page in dotnet nuke.

Hello,

For a good start check out these free tutorials:

• An Introduction to the Principles of DotNetNuke
• Quick Start Guide to DotNetNuke

Thanks,

Thank you for your well guidance.

As a beginner For testing purpose i created a new website using dotnet nuke.Then pressed ctrl+F5 for running the application, before this i just gave my database access path in web.config file.At run time its showing some "Run Database Installation Scripts" and it keeps on going for a long time duration.i waited for 1 hour for completion of that database script, but it did n't finish.i don't know why that wizard is coming and how much time it takes for completion.Plz Help.........

I find it MUCH easier to set up and operate a basic website outside of Visual Studio. Use IIS, and point the website at your web directory and then browse to it.

I believe that the issue you describe is related to AJAX ... and possibly AJAX isn't done properly through VS. You might want to make sure that AJAX is installed on your computer.

I did n't  get your instruction regading how to setup and  operate a basic website without using visual studio.Can you make it more clear.

Also i need  to upload/deploy my project in server.I built a simple website in dotnet nuke using visual studio editor. Usally in  .net we used to publish the site and upload the published files in server.But here i tried same thing after publish the dotnet nuke website.But nothing is coming up.Please help on this.........i want to put my project in server.
