Intergrating Module in an existing Web
Posted: 06-17-2004 05:02 PM

Hello,

I just want to use a Portal Starter kit module ( discussion) to integrate it in an existing site.

I copied all the necessary dll and event.ascx files to my new site but when i do this an exception occurs..

This is my blank aspx page where i want to add discussion
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="portal" TagName="forum" Src="Discussion.ascx" %>
<link href='ASPNETPortal.css' type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script runat="server">
' Insert page code here
'
</script>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form runat="server">
<asp:Label id="lblTest" runat="server">Label</asp:Label>

<portal:forum ModNo="19" runat="server" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

The exception is:
Server Error in '/Discussion' Application.

remove some Inherit directive from <%@ control %> line. Portal module
will automatically load it's ModuleId by Basic Class's method get_ModuleId,
because the parent class do so.

you should also check some source files such like Events.DB in the subfolder
"components" to remove some irrelative lines.

and the last step, I'd like to advice you, to build Events.DB into your own
dll, or one seperate DLL. Only 1% usage of ASP.NET.StarterKit.Portal.dll ,
will welcome conflicts in the future, something like ClassNames, static
methods, then you will think about suicide because you check your own codes
day after day, you cannot figure out what happened.
