Icon And Deployment Path - How To Edit The Package
Apr 9, 2009
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 have added my own icon to my application's window title bars, but the Package & Deployment function uses the Visual Basic icom for entries in the Start Programs menu.

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 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?

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 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.

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?

I have a .chm file linked to my app that is presently being called from it's actual location.HelpProvider1.HelpNamespace = C:Documents and SettingsmgfranzMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsApp NameCleanUp.chm
But when I package the app the directory is going to change to C:Program FilesApp Name by default. The problem arises if the user decides to create an alternate directory. Is there a way to set a $Path at setup runtime so that when the .chm file is called it knows to look in the Home installation directory? Here is the code I use to call the .chm; Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click

I have a problem with installation in Vista. I have complied my vb.net 2.0 application using innosetup last month and installed it successful but after that i changed icon in my application and complied again. On windows vista machine i tried uninstall old version and installed new version. But the desktop and startmenu shows old icon. Does it mean uninstall did not removed the old icon ? It works fine with windows xp.

I've created my first Visual Studio (2010) app. It's a simple, single form, single exe app. I set the application icon in Project Properties and built the app. When I view the exe file in Windows Explorer the small icon displays but when I copy the exe file to my Windows 7 desktop I get the default exe icon instead of the icon I've specified. If I copy the ico file to the desktop the picture displays and when I create a shortcut to the exe file and specify my ico as the icon it also displays.

I have a icon for my application that I set in the project properties window there is a little drop down box to browse to the icon location. While debugging everything is good. Once I build the app and place it on a PC and manually start the app all is good. My app starts with windows and now every time the program goes to start I get an error that the icon cannot be found in the DocumentandSettingUSERNAME folder. So the question is do I have to place my app icon in this folder? In design I have the icon in the binDebug folder and that is were I point to in the Project properties page.
I am using VS 2008 VB.net.
