Click-once Deployment - Additional Files Required In Package?
Jan 9, 2009
Hi, can anyone help me with a click once deployment query?I have packaged an application, using Click Once - it all works absolutely fine, with the exception of some files I need on the C: drive. For example: My application populates an Excel.xlt template with data, using an export function. The path of the template is c:program filesaem
eport.xlt
If the application is packaged, there is no option that I can see where you can include this template and the path to the file. The only way around it is to manually copy the template (and half a dozen other files in the same folder), after the click-once deployment - but this kind of defeats the object.

I've been switching over to VB.net with visual studio 2010 and there is two big questions that are bothering me When I want to create an installer for my program, how do I do the following?
1. Pick the folder on C:\ drive where I want it installed? (ie c:\program files\myprogram)
2. I have about a dozen access databases and monarch models that I've created to work with my program. How do I include these in the installer?I'm not quite sure if this is a vb.net forum question, so pardon if it isn'i'm just starting here because this is afterall vb.net that i'm writing all of this in.

I am wanting to use an application to package all my files together into a setup package. I have tried InstallShield 2011, but when i click on Visual Basic .net wizard, it tells me I do not have Visual Studio.NET installed on my system. I am currently using VB2010 Express How can I fix this... or is there a better application available for packaging?

I am basically an EAI consultant and for my work I took an initiative to develop a windows based GUI whose functionality would be to simply execute a couple of Oracle SELECT queries and display the results in the form. I took the help of my friend who is a VB.NET expert and he was kind enough to develop the complete code for me within a day (He isn't available now). The application did work fine and we tried to package into an MSI using the Deployment & Packaging Project option. Now when I installed the application on a different computer, it throws OraOps10.dll not found ! I also tried the Setup Wizard from the same Deployment & Packaging Project option but it results in the same error.
Please note the following:
-> We used .NET 1.1 and the backend database is Oracle 10g.
-> We downloaded the Oracle Data Access components for .NET from Oracle's website. The DLL file in the error message actually came with this installation.
When I am packaging the solution, I expected all the dependencies including this OraOps10.dll should have also been packaged. What could go wrong here? I don't think I can request my customer to install the Oracle Data Access components for .NET, in this case we don't even need a packaging feature. I would be grateful to you guys if this silly issue is fixed very soon.

I have created an SSISpackage in my asp.net project.To call the ssis package, i have written the following code.
dim app as new Application()

dim result as DTSExeResult=package.Execute()
Response.Write(result.Tostring())
but it shows some errors.i think some namespaces are missing.What all namespaces have to be imported?

I was just forced to switch from VB 6 to .Net. I have my program working but I can't figure out how to include the database that I'm writing to in the install package. I can get the program working by dropping it in but I have to deploy this to other locations and I'd like it to be easy for them.

In VB6 when I finished an application I would use the package deployment wizard and it would include all the dll and ocx files in an exe. Is there a version of VS 2008 that does the same thing?

I take it that the 2010 Express version doesn't have a package & deployment, it only does CickOnce? That sucks because I don't like the way it installs. Does anybody know of a free package & deployment package?

I am using VB.NET 2002 and we have set up a test environment running SQL Server 2005. I am trying to add a reference to Microsoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS.dll which is required to run a DTS/SSIS package from VB.NET. However the dll does not show in my add reference listing so when I select BROWSE and select the actual DLL I get a rather long error message telling me that only 'dll' and COM components can be referenced.
The exact message is: A reference to 'C:Programs FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90SDKAssembliesMicrosoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS.dll' could not be added. This is not a valid assembly or COM component. Only assemblies with extension 'dll' and COM components can be referenced.make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component.

I'm using v2008 Standard Edition deployment Setup1. In the Properties, it seems I have to declare the manufacturer and this results in a deployment path such as: "C:Program Files TOSHIBA MyAppFolder" when the setup CD I created is used. I really want C:Program FilesMyAppFolder as the path. I'd also like to put an icon on the desktop and create a folder in My Documents that can contain two txt files as part of the deployment. I'm stuck as to how to edit the package. Are these options possible?

I created a simple VB application in Visual Studio 2010.My computer, which I am using to create the program, is Windows 7 Pro, and SQL Server 2008 is running on a Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, which I have full access to.
I want to click a button and have an SSIS package execute.I looked around on the Internet and found examples, but they do not seem to work for me.I try to add a reference, Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll, as a few sites advise, but it is not listed when I go to PROJECT>ADD REFERENCE.
I also type:
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime but all I get is a squiggly green line, which when hovered over states "Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'Microsoft.SqlServer .Dts.Runtime' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found." Below is some code I copied from one of the websites and pasted in my button click event (the path is correct), but a get blue squiggly lines under "Package" and "DTSExecResult":
Dim pkgLocation
As String
Dim pkg As
New Package[code]....
What can I do to make the SSIS package run when I click the button on the Windows application a created?

I have created a windows application which Installs Multiple MSI's based on some condition. The project is created in Visual Studio 2008 with .Net framework 3.5; If this application runs in a machine which has atleast Dot Net 2.0 installs, it works fine. but the system without framework 2.0 throws an error "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)"
How can I stop my application from crashing. I tried giving a check in the Main(), but it is not even firing the Main(); Is there any way I can give a prerequisite, But not in the Publish, Coz i am using the output exe and not the clickonce output..

I installed the latest version of Toad yesterday. When I restarted Visual Studio 2008, the project that is my installation package for my application would not longer load. The message I get in the output window is "The Visual Basic Deploy Deployment Package ({CCD045E8-6236-4B3D-B820-97F7DD14C77C}) did not load because of previous errors." When I try to reload that project, I get the following error: " The operation could not be completed. No such interface supported" I tried to repair the VS installation, but that originally failed. The Deployment folder under Common7Tools was currupted so I ran check disk. A few bad files and clusters were found and corrected and the second run of check disk ran clean. I uninstalled Visual Studio and then reinstalled it, but am still getting the same error. I tried reinstalling .Net 3.5 before the reinstall of VS as well. I tried creating a new installation project, but that failed as well.

To improve performance, when one has many files to readwrite it is better to save them in smallergroup in different folders. Is there a magic number over which it is better to start splitting the folder? for example below "10.000" (invented number) files can be stored in one single folder, while above that it is better to start storing files in multiple folders.

I've developed a database application in VB.Net 2010 Express and published a ClickOnce deployment package, the only choice in the Express version. The installation is supposed to create a listing on the Start menu but this isn't happening. Also, I'm using a specialized Hebrew font in the application that is not carrying over to the installation. what I'm doing wrong or if the ClickOnce publishing method is not capable of working in this way?

Have built a project and associated it with a Setup&Deployment Project. The S&D project needs to contain 2 main folders (under User's Desktop) with various formats of files (xmls, txts, dlls) inside them and several subfolders. How can i copy/import these 2 folders and there sub-files/folders into my s&d project?
When adding them in the usual way, they are copied and defined a source path onto the current pc. You can understand what errors this might create when an another targeted pc does not contain those files to the exact location. Is there any way to copy them locally or somehow import them?

I am building a winform vb.net program that uses an access db. I have added the database to the program using the design-time tools in visual studio 2008 (added a dataset to the project), and I am now using the dataset to bind items within my forms successfully. When I debug the program everythin works great, but then when I publish the program, I get an error saying that the database was not found in the appdata/app/2.0/(a very long encoded folder name) folder.
How do I modify the project so that it publishes the database with the project using the one-click install?
