I yesterday installed AS and AF through Host-Module Definitions. Everything seemed to work fine, anyways I only added some AS views for playing, but nothing related to AF.

Today I try to build my test-environment again, Visual Web Developer giving me errors that the site cannot be build:

Error 2 Could not load type 'Active.Modules.Forums.af_modtopicsbar'. \DesktopModules\ActiveForums\controls\af_modtopicsbar.ascx 1
Error 3 Could not load type 'Active.Modules.Forums.af_profilesubscriptions'. \DesktopModules\ActiveForums\controls\af_profilesubscriptions.ascx 1
Error 1 Could not load type 'Active.Modules.Forums.af_whosreadtopic'. \DesktopModules\ActiveForums\controls\af_whosreadtopic.ascx 1

In that three files it is said that the relating code-behind files cannot be found (af_modtopicsbar.ascx.vb, af_profilesubscriptions.ascx.vb, af_whosreadtopic.ascx.vb)

You don't have source code so you can't compile. Exclude the Active Forums directory.

Thanks!

Is this going to be fixed any time soon? I'm running into the same problem. I've got a bug somewhere in one of my other modules, so I'm trying to run DotNetNuke in debug mode, but it won't build because these three files don't have any code behind them.

Hi Tony,
No, there really isn't anything for us to fix. Active Forums doesn't include source code which is why we have suggested to simply remove the Active Forums directory if you must compile DotNetNuke.
