Update -

I tried to upload the module after I copied the zip file to the local machine, and now I have the module loaded. Previously I was on a second machine mapped through the network to the server.

I have the same problem (same error message)

I don't think this line change is the answer. When I make your change, the Portal will no longer function. I then re-set the line and I was able to add another module (the Blog module), so I am comfortable that my setup is still working.

Let's establish some test parameters and constants - my portal is on a win2k server with SQL Server 2000 and IIS 5. I am trying to add the Gallery module (from DotNetNuke) to DNN 3.2.

So far, no luck. But the portal works!

I've found the fix...

Open the Web.Config file and find the line: "<httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true" maxRequestLength="8192" />"

Replace this with the line: "<httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true" maxRequestLength="8192" requestLengthDiskThreshold="8192"/>"

Save and try again, should work now.

Leupold, you rock!

Worked perfectly for the DNN Forum module. BTW, the folder is ~/Install/Resource. (not plural, in case some newbs were wondering)

What am I saying? I define Newbie.

Placed the zip file in that directory and ran the page. It appeared to install fine. However the module does not show up in the list. This is the photo gallery module that can be downloaded from the dotnetnuke site. Has anyone gotten this to work with DNN4?

upload it into the /install/modules directory and run www.yourportal.com/install/install.aspx?mode=installresources

I was able to manualy add them by extracting the skins to the skin and container folders within the portal folder. It works fine for selecting the skins from the drop down list however the nice mini picture selection does not work for them. It is a start at least.

That sucks. I am using DNN4. I hope this will be fixed soon. I really want to add some modules in. Has anyone found a work around. Can I manually add modules some way?

What version of DNN are you running? I believe it was reported in 4.0 that there is a bug uploading modules with embedded resource zip files. There are a few other threads with the same problem. No solution that I have seen as of yet.
