Setup Project Can Not Build
Jul 8, 2005
I am using vs 2003 to build a setup project but got this error message"Could not find file ..., Not enough storage is available to complete this operation."I checked the path of the file, it is correct. After I remove this file from the setup project, I can build it successfully and the result msi file is about 250MB, the file I removed is about 260MB, is there any limitation about the size of the file in setup project or the total size of msi file? If so, how can I build the setup project?

I added a setup project to a winform vb.net app which otherwise builds fine. Once the setup project is added to the solution, however, the build fails with the following error;Unrecoverable build error.As there does not seem to be much information I can't figure what the problem is. What can I do from here to fix this to get deployment package?

I made a change to a project and hve induced a major problem. I have warnings and errors now, but I can still debug the project with the "last successful build" Iwould like to just revert everything to that build but I can't find a way to eliminate the problems I induced or find a way to go to a earlier build. Hopefully I can get back to an earlier version or I will loose the entire project as I can no longer get to the designer.

I am using 8 different vb projects in one solution, beside this I am also using one 3rd party control ion all the projects, while compiling the application it takes around 5 minutes to build the project, While building the application I have observe that it uses lc.exe file which is used for "Reads text files that contain licensing information and produces a .licenses file that can be embedded in a common language run time executable." at this point it takes too much time.

I've finally got a project compiled and tested and ready to roll out.I have discovered that the "Publish" option is not what it seems, and that we must create a separate "Setup Project" to carry out the task of installing the files.This is not the most intuitive process I've seen, and the online help on that subject is not easy to understand.I was hoping that someone could direct me to a tutorial or guide that would step me through the specific approach I need. Many of the other guides online are vague and address multiple scenarios and do not separate the approaches very well.I have the contents of my project in /bin/release. It runs nicely by iteself with no errors.Here's what I need:
1. To create a setup exe that I can distribute that will install my software, with all of the supporting (resource) files and folders.
2. I need the setup process to force the installer to "agree" to a EULA.
3. I'd would like to provide an image on the installation screen/popup.
4. I would like the software registered in the registry and rely on it being there in the registry.
5. I need it to default to program filesprojectname (it does by default)

I new to this Forum and relatively new to VB programming. I have read some really good posts here and thought I would ask about a perplexing problem I'm having. I createdindows Form application, built it and deployed it with no problems. However, when I added a small block of code, re-built the app and went to add the app to the Project Output Group in the file system editor the project was not in the Project drop down list. I closed the Setup project and deleted it from the project folder and checked my code and re-built the app and tried the Set Up project again with the same result

shove in the right direction on this:My program is setup to instantiate/build five labels at run times, corresponding with those labels five texts boxes are built at run time. The user inputs four numbers into the first four text boxes and then when you click the total button, it totals the four boxes and outputs to the last text box

I was studying visual basic 2008 and had reached almost 60% of it when I was told that my course curriculum included visual basic 2005. I will now have to reinstall visual basic 2005(.net framework 2) instead of visual basic 2008(3.5 .net framework). I was wondering- will it be completely different vb2005 and vb2008? I really wanted to stick to vb2008, I was getting the hang of it. Also, I was wondering, can I run my application vb2008 in .net framework? Is there any way around? Also, I used advanced installer to build a setup file for my application? Now the question is will the other computer(the one which will install from the set up) need .net framework of 3.5(since I built apps in vb2008)?

Ok, imagine the simplest solution in Visual Studio 2008 with framework 3.5 (OS = Win XP) where I have added a class library. Then I've added a COM Class. This COM Class is so simple, it only exposes 1 function:
Public Function SayHello() As String
Return " Hello."
End Function

In Visual Basic 2010, when I do Build/Build [project name], sometimes the resulting exe file is put in ..in and other times it's put in ..inRelease. Why does it do this and how can I control it?

In VB.NET, my application is quite simple, and it accesses many images and creates a list with them.The images are in my application's Resources folder.The images are accessed in my code where I typed the path, in my PC, how to reach said folder.Works like a charm, my project displays the images etc.Now I go to Debug->Build.Now I go to the bin folder, release folder, and find my application. I upload it.I share the download to a friend.My question is, will the images my application should show will appear? Considering the path I created in the code was manually written?

I have written a small VB.NET simulation program that uses an XML file to configure the simulation. I want to include this file in the project build so that when the application is installed, there will be a default XML file in the required directory.
When I do the Project Publish (within VB 2010 Express), there is no option for including any extra data files in the process.
Is it possible to do this with VB 2010 Express ... or should I try some other project builder/installer.

In my project properties I have the version/build numbers automatically incrementing... I'm on 1.0.0.16.
The problem is that with each new/updated installation, my build numbers aren't changing... even though my project properties page shows the appropriate version/revision incrementing. I created the installer project at version 1.0.0.13. Although I'm now at 1.0.0.16, My "About" form still shows 1.0.0.13.
I do not hard-code the version in this form... I use the following
Me.LabelVersion.Text = String.Format("Version {0}", My.Application.Info.Version.ToString)Hope this isn't too vague. The installer project creates a setup.exe and setup.msi file. When I publish my solution is also creates a setup.exe file.

so instead of when i build my project running the advanced installer t make it a exe i just went to my visual basic projects folder and ran it from there and it worked good, so i though if i make a zip file the files in it password protect, and just leave out the startup icon then my users can just click that to use my program while not being aloud into the source code, but after i zipped the folder the program doesnt work anymore, any way to do this?
