    <p>First off i am a big fat NOOB in regards to Sharepoint 2007 webpart development but i am working at it.</p> <p>Now for the real problem, so i develop this webpart and follow the 'Loose' advise from various sites on how to setup the features.xml, .xml, manifest.xml, solution.ddf and solution.build files. Basically, i have a all-in-one solution where i build the webpart and then in post-build event compile all the source files into the WSP deployment package.</p> <p>Problem i am having is that I can add the solution to the sharepoint site but when i go to Deploy it through CA-Operations-Solution management i get this great error:</p> <blockquote> <h2>Error as reported from Sharepoint</h2> <p>Failed to instantiate file "ChartPartWP.webpart" from module "ChartPartWP": Source path "ChartPartWP\ChartPartWP.webpart" not found.</p> </blockquote> <p>When i looked at the file-system the folder ChartPart is present in TEMPLATE\FEATURES with the ChartPartWP.webpart and other support files.</p> <p>What is not happening that i need to resolve.</p> <p>Edit: 10/24/2011 @ 11:36PM</p> <h2>Solution.ddf</h2> <pre><code>.OPTION EXPLICIT .Set CabinetNameTemplate=ChartPartWP.wsp .Set DiskDirectoryTemplate=CDROM .Set DiskDirectory1=Package .Set CompressionType=MSZIP .Set UniqueFiles="ON" .Set Cabinet=On .Set SourceDir="\\&lt;fileserver&gt;\common share\Software_Development\MPT\Sharepoint2007\ChartPart\" Manifest.xml manifest.xml ; binary bin\release\TCBOE.ChartPart.dll TCBOE.ChartPart.dll ; feature files TEMPLATE\FEATURES\ChartPartWP\ChartPartWP.xml ChartPartWP\ChartPartWP.xml TEMPLATE\FEATURES\ChartPartWP\feature.xml ChartPartWP\Feature.xml ; web part files TEMPLATE\FEATURES\ChartPartWP\ChartPartWP.webpart ChartPartWP\ChartPartWP.webpart TEMPLATE\FEATURES\ChartPartWP\LockedChartPartWP.webpart ChartPartWP\LockedChartPartWP.webpart </code></pre> <h2>manifest.xml</h2> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;Solution xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/" SolutionId="{0C32EA7F-78C2-4814-A4C9-88256E49E371}"&gt; &lt;FeatureManifests&gt; &lt;FeatureManifest Location="ChartPartWP\feature.xml" /&gt; &lt;/FeatureManifests&gt; &lt;Assemblies&gt; &lt;Assembly Location="TCBOE.ChartPart.dll" DeploymentTarget="GlobalAssemblyCache" /&gt; &lt;/Assemblies&gt; &lt;/Solution&gt; </code></pre> <h2>ChartPartWP.xml</h2> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/"&gt; &lt;Module Name="ChartPartWP" List="113" Url="_catalogs/wp" Path="ChartPartWP" RootWebOnly="True"&gt; &lt;File Url="ChartPartWP.webpart" Type="GhostableInLibrary"&gt; &lt;Property Name="Group" Value="ChartParts" /&gt; &lt;/File&gt; &lt;File Url="LockedChartPartWP.webpart" Type="GhostableInLibrary"&gt; &lt;Property Name="Group" Value="ChartParts" /&gt; &lt;/File&gt; &lt;/Module&gt; &lt;/Elements&gt; </code></pre> <h2>feature.xml</h2> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?&gt; &lt;Feature xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/" Id="47D62F5E-B0E0-4f93-BCD1-081CA794527C" Version="3.5.1.0" Title="TCBOE ChartPart" Description="Provides a Chart Web object to be used in Sharepoint 2007."

I didnt read anything about it but read something about a FeatureReceiver for a purpose, but cant remember for the life-of-it, why you need the FeatureReceiver (<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spfeaturereceiver.aspx" rel="nofollow" title="SPFeatureReceiver">SPFeatureReceiver</a>)</p>

    2. COWhat does your ChartPartWP.xml file look like? The combination of your Path properties of the <Module><File></File></Module> elements might be messed up and not pointing to the proper location of your ChartPartWP.webpart file in the feature folder.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
