I have an vb.net application that I want to install on client machine. The backend is SQL server. Could I make up a setup package that would deploy an application that includes the database with all the stored procedures and tables? The client pc do not have sql server installed there.
I have finished by killer app but it seems that I will have to go to a third party tool in order to create a deployment CD. My problem with both the 2005 version and the 2008 version is that the "Add New Project" window contains only the "Templates" panel. The "Project types" panel is missing from that window.I can see that I will have to do some hard work learning how to build a script for a third party deployment tool but I am very puzzled about why my "Add New Project" window is incomplete.I select << File/Add/New Project >> and it displays the incomplete window.[code]...

I have made a project in vb.net 2008 and used sql server 2008 for database and how to make the setup that need to be deploy on those system which do not have sql server on their system .
Using Visual Studio 2010, Windows 7.Setting up project on one machine, then attempting deployment it on another machine with Windows 7 on it:When it comes to deployment, every time I have one to do, it is like pulling teeth.I am in file system setup, and I have a custom folder created with DefaultLocation set at [CommonAppDataFolder].Supposably you can use the "Common Files Folder" too, but that did not work either.What is happening is, I have three files in this folder, and two of them copy over just fine, when I look at the ProgramData/Tachufind folder, both of those files are in there, but no sign whatsoever of the third file.I have tried deleting and then re-copying the file back in, to no avail.I have tried setting various properties, to see if that will change anything, to no avail. Can't Microsoft make this easier, this is deployment-hell! Is there another application you can use to deploy a project without losing your sanity?
Let's say I roll out version 1 of this project for many users. As time goes by I update the code, change the Access db strucutre here and there, and would like to roll out version 2.What is the best way to do this?Is there an easy way to get the differences between version 1 and version 2 of an access db?
I'm not sure if this is the right forum or not but...I've written my first VB.NET 2008 Express Class Library project (addin dll) and now I need to deploy it. I see Windows Form Applications have a Publsh tab (ClickOnce) in the project properties window but my class library project does not. How do I deploy a VB.NET 2008 Express Class Library project?
For reasons that are beyond my control, I have three Projects. Projects A and B reference project C. Project A references project B so that it can open a large form in project B. I now need to open that large form from project C, but VB won't allow me to add a reference from C to B because that would create a circular dependency. I found a way around it, though. I created a Timer in A, and when I opened C from A, I passed in that timer. When the user performs a certain action, I enable the Timer from A, and this causes C to open B for me.
I have a project that I have created, it something like a contact database.It is complete with its own sql server database, and controls and forms.I kinda of understand that I can include this project into another project.This is the tricky part,Can I include my contact project into another project and add more items to the database and forms in a new project?What I'm after is like using classes.My contact database would be like the base class, and the new project would be adding more features to that project.
I need to deploy this app and currently the installer the path goes something like "C:Program FilesManufacturerApp". I just want it to be "C:Program FilesApp" by default. I know I can change this manufacturer from the properties for the project, but I want it to go away altogether. The setup project won't build with it gone.
My technique for deploying an ASP.NET webapp into production is as follows[code]...
I don't stop the database or run any additional tools to promote to production. It's a small company, and this seems fine. What's wrong with this technique in your opinion?
I made an app that uses a Access Db extensively(will be changed to sql later). I have hard coded the location of the db into the app,i use one click to deploy the program and then i manually copy the database into the location.
i just finished developing an application with visual basic and want to deploy it on the client computers while the database is on the server in a LAN environment.i tried installing the application on the server but the other computers on the network couldn't access it.i am using SQL 2000 database on the server.
I've designed a small database app that I now want to deploy on a different machine.If I "publish" the app from the IDE does that give me the appropriate functionality to do this?
I have created several small applications that use my own DLL. The problem is, this DLL is constantly changing. My current solution to this problem is that I have a Setup project in the class library solution that creates and registers the DLL. In all my applications I then have to open the solution and re-reference the newly created/registered DLL. Then I have to re-compile their setup projects, uninstall the old applications, and then re-install the new application.
There has to be a better way and I'm just not sure because I'm fairly new to all this. I have looked into ClickOnce but I don't think that will solve my issue as I cannot publish a class library. I have looked into checking version numbers but I must be doing something wrong because it doesn't work either.I understand that once a DLL is created and being used in an application it should essentially not be touched. I do not have that option in this situation. It is constantly updated. Done.
Edit: The DLL is not constantly changing during runtime but it is constantly evolving to allow more functionality and detail within the other applications. Also, one big thing I guess I should have mentioned is the Public interface is constantly chaning - usually adding new methods.
I have created a PowerPoint addin using the steps from this article: Using RibbonX from Visual Basic
The plugin works fine when I start the project using F5 in Visual Studio 2005. But if I try to use the installer created by the setup project that is automatically added to the solution, the plug-in won't show when I run powerpnt.exe
Is there something I missed? Do I need to make some modifications to the installer?
I've developed a vb.net app which works great on my dev machine, both within the IDE and as a compiled executable. But when I deploy it to a user workstation, I receive the following:
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.
Could not load file or assembly Microsoft Office Interop.Excel, Version=11.0.0.0,Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannon find the file specified.
