dashCommerce

I'm getting the following error after loading the site on my Windows 2003 Server (IIS 6 and MS SQL2005) when I browse to the following URL http://mydomain.com/install/install.aspx

Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'MettleSystems' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)  

Source File: c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files\root\bb101945\20a6886d\App_Code.spfnylbm.0.cs    Line: 19

I did my best to follow the installation instructions and made sure Ajax 1.0, SQL Server 2005 and .NET 2.0 framework are all installed on my server.  I was able to get DashCommerce 2.2 and 3.0 Beta all working on this same server in the past so I'm not a total newbie.  Do I need to compile the project first or something?  I just unzipped everything and made the "Web" directory the base directory for the site in IIS.  I'm sure I'm just missing some critical step to please enlighten me.  Thank you.

Yes, you have to build the solution.

Can I build it on my development machine and then upload it to my server or do I have to actually build it on my Server?  I suppose if I didn't have to build it on my server then you probably would already have a "ready to run" version available for download.  Anyways, I'll try that, thanks!

You can absolutely built it on your dev machine and then upload it to the server. The reason we don't have a web package together is because we will release that with the release.

Hi, have same issue

Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'MettleSystems' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

i tried several thinks: adding all dll from Dependencies. convert project to .net 3.5 etc. Error is getting back all the time.

Is there allready a solution for this problem?

You need VS Pro - you can find all the requirements on the Technology page.

You should be able to use standard. A lot of folks download trial versions of Standard or Pro first and work with them - they have 90 day trial periods I think. So, I would recommend you do that first if you want to try Standard (or Pro for that matter).

thanks, i will try the trial..
