XCopy Deployment Of A VB Express App Which Uses A SQL Server Express Database?
May 13, 2005It's probably just a case of me not looking in the right place or not seeing the obvious, but does anyone know if a machine with just version 2.0 of the .NET Framework should be able to run a VB.NET Express application which accesses a SQL Server Express database file? Or is there an additional requirement for a non-development machine to have some kind of SQL Server Express runtime component in addition to the 2.0 Framework?It seems to be counterintuitive to expect that a VB.NET application would be able to access any kind of SQL Server data without having some kind of SQL Server host component (Express or otherwise) installed. But then again, it seems just as counterintuitive that Microsoft would require the download and installation of the new framework as well as a separate database runtime in order for the average user to run an application with accesses a local SQL Server Express database.To me, it runs contrary to the whole concept of XCopy deployment to require more than just the application's files and .NET Framework for an application to run properly. But nothing I've read so far explicitly indicates that a user would require anything more than the app files and the framework to run an application which accesses SQL Server Express data. But...I can't get any VB Express applications which uses a SQL Server Express databases to run on any machine that doesn't have SQL Server Express installed.What am I missing?(Apologies if this isn't the right group to post this in.

2005 Express : Add Resource Directory To Deployment?
Sep 11, 2009I have created a resource directory loaded with 10 mp3 files in it and added it to the resources tab. The problem I am having is when the program is compiled and installed, it does not add the resource directory to the hard drive. I know that resources can be added into the applications files in the publish tab but cannot seem to figure out how to get it listed or added in there.I also took each mp3 and set the build action to Embedded Resource... That didnt help much though.The resource directory i want to include in the deployement is in my bin/debug/resources in the solution explorer.

Deployment :: Setup & Deployment - Copy/import 2 Folders And There Sub-files/folders Into S&d Project?
May 7, 2012Have 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?

Application And SQL DB Deployment
Dec 4, 2011I have decided to try and engage creating my first app with a database. I have run through all the VB Express 2010 default tutorials and feel confident to move up one notch.My application on has two users and we do not have a server, just a file sharing setup which works okay if youre using MS Access DB. I have also constructed the app with a Service based DB attached to the project (VB Express 2010)I have spent a week trying to research this on Google but cannot find any specific answers to my questions.So, how do I setup the app prior to publishing so that I can install the app on both desktops and have SQL server installed on only one of the desktops with the DB residing on that?
View 5 RepliesDeployment - Can't Even Package
Jan 28, 2009I 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.
Deployment Not Working On Some PC's?
Aug 31, 2009I installed VB2008 Express a few days ago and have written a small program. When trying to deploy this I'm having problems that it's only working on some PC's, but not on others. At first I thought it may be something in my program, but I've been doing some tests and I'm noticing that ALL programs don't work on some PC's.
To do the most basic test possible, I opened VB, started a new app called 'Test' and without doing ANYTHING I published the application to Test On the PC which wrote the program and on a friend's PC, it works fine. But on this PC and on another friend's PC, as soon as I hit the 'Run' button I get a XML page (pasted below).As I say, the program has NOTHING in it, it's just an empty form.Forgot to add one thing, when trying to deploy via disk earlier on this PC, the installer DID install both Windows Installer and also the latest .net. I've also had a guy on another forum who can't run from my webpage, even though he's a VB user.
XML page that comes up when I hit 'Run' reads as follows.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

.net - ClickOnce Deployment Errors
Mar 30, 2009I am trying to deploy a ClickOnce app. It had worked previously when the server was just sitting with .Net 2.0 installed (no SP). Recently the server had 3.5SP1 installed on it and now ClickOnce is failing with the error:Value does not fall within the expected range inside System.Deployment.
Here is the information posted on the MSDN forums (answers there are generally hit or miss for me) with the call stack:It was in VS 2005 w/SP1 and I tried changing the path I publish to, changing the installation URL, changing the assembly name, manually controlling versions, running mage -cc, manually removing all application data in %userprofile%AppDataLocalApps and even changing deployment servers completely but still get the same error:
