Hi Brad,

Cool. But I'm having a problem. I just installed SL3 and Blend 3. While I do find a navigation app template, I don't see a business app template. Do I need to do something extra to get to it?

Ahh...seems I need to install RIA services too.

yes -- that is right... the Business Application template is part of RIA Services.. But pretty much everything in this one should work with the Navigation Application template just the same.

I suggest getting some of these Silverlight 3 post such as yours up on a tutorial site - keep them together.

Thanks for your post and update - much appreciate.

I see some great changes, and I see many items that were changed based on user feedback. That is fantastic - the team should be proud of their work.

Hernan -- there is a "RIA Services" version of each template... make sure you get the right one..

Hi Brad

First of all let me say, you are great! I enjoyed your blogs and of Corse the Video.

I have a problem, may be its a little problem, but I have searched now for days to find a solution, but didnt found.

Here is the Problem.

I have the German VS 2008 Vision, also German

Microsoft Silverlight 3 Beta SDK

Microsoft Silverlight 3 Tools.

Ok, but always when I tried to install the Ria Services I got the message that I need to install "Microsoft Silverlight 3 Beta SDK and Microsoft Silverlight 3 Tools" first, but I already had.

Anyhow, I found a way to install it with the following instruction :

“msiexec /i RiaServices.msi NOCHECK=true”

ok, after this I also had to copy BusinessApllication.zip und RIAServicesLibrary.zip from the 1033 Folder to the 1031 Folder (for my language).

So far it works fine, I was able to create a new Projekt with Silverlight Bussiness Aplication.

Ok, here comes the Problem. I cant find the “Domain Services”, it is not listed.

So when I click in my App.Web Folder to add a new Item, I cant find Domain Services.

Hope you can help me, or someone else.

Thank you in advance

Hitting F5 brings up the following url: http://localhost:52878/BusinessApplicationTestPage.aspx#/Home

Everything appears fine. After a moment though, the application transitions to the following url and error message page:

http://errorpage.comcast.net/?cat=Web&con=dc&safe=on&q=localhost

Sorry. We can't find "localhost"

Follow-up to above:

Finally, after surfing the Forums in the Microsoft Silverlight web site, I found a tip that seems to have resolved it. I was able to resolve the issue above by starting Visual Studio as Administrator.
