    I am trying to create a new module using DNN Compiled Module Development in VS 2017. After the new project is created its showing compilation error for 2 DLL file under references i.e. 

    1. DotNetNuke.dll

    2. Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data

    It is resulting in a compilation error. Can anybody help me to resolve this? where can I get these files?

            Hi Erwin,

            As suggested, I took the files present in the DNN site folder. Now it is displaying error related to higher version of target framework.

            1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\15.0\Bin\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(2110,5): warning MSB3274: The primary reference "DotNetNuke" could not be resolved because it was built against the ".NETFramework,Version=v4.7.2" framework. This is a higher version than the currently targeted framework ".NETFramework,Version=v4.5.1".

            Please suggest how to resolve this.

             The details of error displayed.

              You need to upgrade your server, make sure that .NET 4.7.2 is installed, and then edit your App Pool to use 4.7.2.

              For more information, check the requirements for DNN at dnndocs.com.
