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 published an application and copied the Application Files Folder ,setup.exe and .application file to a network folder for others to install on their machines. What causes this message to appear. Should'nt the new version over write any previously installed version on a machine. Although in this case no other version has been installed. You cannot start application...from this location because it is installed from a different location
View 1 RepliesI have a webserver and I upload files to my webserver from time to time. I have an ftp account which points to public_html that is main directory.
I though why give full access so I created another ftp account (e.g. test) which points to a specific folder. Now when I try to upload a file using test it fails.
For e.g.
the following code works:
My.Computer.Network.UploadFile("d:ok.txt", "ftp://mysite.com/Test/okay.txt", "main@mysite.com", "mainpw")
- this is because this a/c has access to root folder of website
now following code gives error -
My.Computer.Network.UploadFile("d:ok.txt", "ftp://mysite.com/Test/okay.txt", "test@mysite.com", "testpw")
The remote server returned an error: (550) File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access).
Well the ftp account test has been given access to a specific folder with the name "Test". So it should at least upload to that folder.
But if I use ftp client (like filezilla) then it works.
I recently upgraded from vb.net 2003 to vb 2008. I see that when I "Build" the application all of the program files are generated, must like with vb.net 2003. When I use the ClickOnce publish approach, a set of files are generated including the setup.exe. When I double click on the setup file, the program installs deep down in My Documents. If I navigate to that location there is a complete set of my application files along with some Manifest files and a Manifest folder.
I wish to package my program for installation using INNO Setup Compiler, because it is very flexible and allows me to add information and choices through the installation process. My question is - if I package the "Publish" set of files, should I be including the files that are generated and located in the "Manifest" folder? and if so, do these files need to be located in their own folder as was installed on my computer? Or can I simply add them to all of the program files?
I am using vb.net express 2008, with a windows form application, and its done. My application makes use of cmd script files, and other files I have created myself. I want to put everything in an install bundle, which will copy the files to a directory on the users computer, and then my application can read from that directory, for it to function as it should. The install bundle includes the .exe of my winforms application.Right now, I hardcoded my application to look into a specific folder on my system, just for testing purposes, but I am going to deploy it soon, and I want to give as much flexibility to the user.

View 1 RepliesI use VS 2008 Standard. If I do a QuickOnce deployment after resetting Application Files in the Publish Tab I get a bunch of messages saying that various files are not in the GAC. To solve this I change the Publish Status from Prerequisite (Auto) to Include and set Download Group to Required. Then when I install the application I get the splash screen and then the message that the application has stopped working. There was a workaround posted to delete /bin/obj/.cache etc, but I have no /bin/obj/ folder.

View 5 RepliesI (through a ton of help from everyone here at stack-o) have created a small WCF which is hosted as a Windows service using TCP..Last question for this little bugger; it's time for deployment. In my solution, there are 3 projects. One is the Windows service, another is the imported WCF, and finally a setup project I added for install.I can install/uninstall the service on my machine by going in the solution directory and finding "Setup.exe" or "Setup.msi". Executing either from explorer will install the service on my development box.Now there are a few directories associated with this solution. I'm betting that simply copying setup.exe or setup.msi to my target server and trying to run it will bomb out. How can I find out exactly which files/folder I will need to copy over for deployment?Or should I just copy the entire solution directory? That will be a little difficult for my coworkers as the setup routines are nested in directories 5 deep.
View 3 RepliesI am creating a setup file using features brought by Visual Studio.I have some files which can't be removed from the application's folder.

View 1 RepliesHi, 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'm a bit confused here. I'm copying all the controls from one form to a panel on the main form and for some reason only about half of them copy.
Private Sub switchComponent()
Dim selection As String = TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text
Panel1.Controls.Clear()[code]....
When stepping through the code, serverDic(selection).Controls has 12 elements, but only 6 of them get copied. Next time this gets called, only 3 get copied. Does Panel1.Controls.clear() somehow kill the references?
EDIT: Just to show that there are infact 12 elements in the collection:
