This starter kit is quite the headache. I played with it in beta and finally gave up. Now that I have the actual release version, I see that not much has changed. In reading this forum I was able to at least get the kit running on my remote host, but have no easy way to create my user account on the database. The documentation is weak at best. I was hoping to use this kit as a jumping off point for exploreing the new features of 2.0... but I see I need to look else where...

Hi,

What is the nature of the problem you are having ?

I got the kit up and running after a bit of the usual headache, it was mostly a matter of setting up the DB, then using the
WAT tool in Visual Studio 5.0 to create the Admin user when pointing to the Remote DB.

I also made some changes to the site in general and it works just fine.

I am now looking to fix the slow initial page load due to the PhotoAlbum Random image being slow.

I did see a few contributions but they were all in C# at this point I am using the VB.Net version.

I think my complaint was more about the quality of the starter kit. I did eventually get it working by reading posts on this forum. For a starter kit, the documentation was pretty weak.

On that point I must agree,

As a Starter kit it is sending you off on many a wild chase as opposed to a good central HardCore "RTFM" repository.

Also it has a few design flaws but then again it is free so who is to complain.

I am just waiting to hear when Microsoft will go to xxxxx.ASPY pages as opposed to xxxxxxx.ASPX and then of course
that new paradigm will no longer be legacy compatible so you will not be able to retrofit you old experience into the new
model.

I am very cautious when thinking of giving a good segment of my learning curve time to Microsoft and it's new fangdangled
development tools.

Yes of course,

I am messing with it and at times one plays with things and they are temporarily broken.

I do not have a Test Domain and then a Production Domain... LOL

I will be correcting the problem when I get home tonight from the office.
