I downloaded the web site and tried to run it. I get numerious errors indicatign that objects are not defined.
ie:
Error 1 Theme 'White' cannot be found in the application or global theme directories. C:\Documents and Settings\Nick Creason\My Documents\personal website download\web.config 9
Error 2 Type 'PhotoSize' is not defined. C:\Documents and Settings\Nick Creason\My Documents\personal website download\PhotoManager.vb 16 84 C:\...\personal website download\
Error 3 Type 'PhotoSize' is not defined. C:\Documents and Settings\Nick Creason\My Documents\personal website download\PhotoManager.vb 35 58 C:\...\personal website download\
etc.
There are 16 errors all similar to the ones above.
I downloaded the project and unziped the files. The HTML read me file says it is is ready to run. Am I missing a config file or a class dll?
Help. I've done programming in VB. Just starting in ASP.
You might start by downloading it again and starting over. Many people have ended up with corrupt installations on the first try including myself. After you download it you should right click on the file and click the Unblock button.
Thanks for the reply. I deleted everthing and downloaded it again. I must be missing a step. I right clicked on the Zip file and selected the VB version. It unziped everthing and put it into a template folder. When I open the site in the development
invironment all the files show up. When I run the site I still get the same set of errors. I also get an error wanting to change the config file to allow debuging.
I never did see the unblock button you mentioned.
Shouldn't the files be located in a tree of subdirectories? I've never seen a signt where everthing is in one directory.
I just got the same error "Theme 'White' cannot be found in the application or global theme directories.". I found the solution at http://www.aspspider.net/resources/Resource167.aspx
The .vsi file creates a folder with two zip files, so that's were the original poster found the .zips. If you unzip the folder and then use Visual Studio to open the folder using the Open Web Page option, the error occurs. In today's fancy world, what
you're really supposed to do after running the .vsi is to open Visual Studio, go File->New Web Site, and now there is a My Templates section there and you select the starter kit name and go. It worked no problem after that, except the first time it I had
to refresh the browser for the skin to show up.
The first time you run it this way it initializes things, so no errors.

Here is what I get from MS. pers_rtm_v1_vb
When I unzip it I get several full pages of files. It loads into the editor but gives the errors I listed above. Are we talking abou the same thing?
