Dnn.platform: Running DNN from Visual Studio

[rogertinsley]

Summary

I want to run DNN from Visual Studio to help me debug some issues that I am seeing. When I run the Website, I step through the installer and I get an error:

ERROR:Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.AuthCookies_Update'.

Steps to reproduce (if necessary)

1. Clone the git repo and use the development branch (I experience the same result on release/9.3.2 branch as well)
2. Set the CSPROJ to run from local IIS (Permissions and app pool are setup with Network Service)
3. Build - this completes ok
4. F5 to run in debug
5. Fill out the installation parameters
6. Click Continue
7. Installer kick off and fails half way through, the database is partially created

I've tried the same with IIS Express and experience the same issue.

Current result (if necessary)

Expected result (if necessary)

Installation should be successful

I got this working.

I was running it in Debug mode, but had to build it for release first. I ran build.ps1, it built the modules and copied them to \dnn.Platform\Website\Install\Module\.

Running the installer after that worked 🎉
