Help needed with asp.net 2 starter kits.


Hello,
This should be very basic but i'm having hard time finding the C# version of
the starter kits.

There is a link in the Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition but that
only opens the VB version of the personal starter kit.

I went to download the starter kits from
http://www.asp.net/vwd/starterkits.a...dex=4&tabId=46 but the .vsi
file does extract in 8,3 file format and when i open the project i do not
have a valid project.
Can someone telle me how i get a c# project i can work with ?

Many thanks in advance

The vsi's have both C# and VB.NET versions in it.
You can choose to install either or both.

There is a link to personal website when you install the web express ide.
That one is VB only.

When i exctract the .vsi file, i see both C# and VB , but the extracted
files in some old dos format.

The Personal website is OK, but the Club and Time Tracker
sample app files are in 8.3 format, right ?

Unfortunately, I reported that to the proper channel on April 12.
I'm sorry to see that apparently they haven't been fixed.

I just asked for the fix again.
Sometimes things slip through the cracks.

This may be one of them.

the files. But i canot build the project.

Below the error:
Error 1 Theme 'White' cannot be found in the application or global theme
directories. D:\aspnet 2.0 web apps\personal\Web.Config 9

How to fix this?
Many thanks in advance

Does your folder structure look like this :
/App_Themes
/White
White.skin

It should...

Regarding the 8.3 filenames, I've been told that the installer
filenames should be *.vsi, and not *.vsi.zip

It's been reported that renaming the *.vsi.zip file to *.vsi
fixes the 8.3 format problem upon installation.

See : http://forums.asp.net/897833/ShowPost.aspx

btw, there's specialized forums for each Starter Kit at :

You might want to direct any further questions about any
of the Starter Kits to the appropiate dedicated discussion forum.

That's the only way Beta 2 understands theme locations.

/App_Themes
/White
White.skin
/Black
Black.skin

Are you using Beta 2 ?

Going back to what you said :
When i extract the .vsi file
You shouldn't *extract* the *.vsi file.
You should double-click it, and it will install the project.

vsi files are installed into Visual Studio by VSContentInstaller.exe,
which you should have in

drive:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv

You don't have to open that program, though.

The vsi extension should be associated with it
and by double-clicking the vsi file, it will run automatically.

But...it will only install correctly under Beta 2.
