VS 2008 Automatically Installing Applications?
Apr 27, 2010
I need to automate the installation of 3 different applications and I need a good starting point.
From what I've been reading, APIs seem like the way to go. But, if I can, I'd like to keep it to managed code.
I've checked with the manufacturers to see if they had any available APIs that could allow me to do the automation, but they have none
What do you all think is the best approach? Is there any .NET methods to assist me? Or do I have to go with APIs and unmanaged code?

I created a program and published it using the wizard through the "Property" in menu.
When I used the Published program to Install it in my same computer it got installed in "StartMenu".
I didn't get the option to select the Drive for Installing it like what we get when installing other program.
how to make that option to appear on installing the program?

I want to distribute this program I've made and it has a database it needs to install. So I made the setup project and put the database in the "application folder".
I built the setup project and ran it. It does successfully copy the database file into the application folder. But when I run the program it says file cannot be found, even though the file does exist and at the path specified where the program says it cannot find the file.

I have had some success making a windows service but I can�t seem to fix a simple issue
I can get the service to run through my code once, but I can�t get it to loop, well I can but then the service will not start correctly and just times out while the code is running.
How can I get the service to start and then loop, at the moment it just says starting service and the code is looping but the service wont start! Windows times it out after a few mins.

I need to communicate between multiple applications (one server and multiple clients) in the LAN. While googling I came across 3 concepts (TCP/IP, Named Pipes and WCF). I also understand WCF needs lot of study for a starter like me. I need to have one (server) application running on one machine, the values generated by it should be displayed immediately on the other (client) application which will be running on multiple machines in a LAN. Also when the user pauses the process from the client application, it should pause the process on the server application.

I'm thinking of creating some applications that will process search and storage requirements.
I want these to be separate applications - so that I could eventually move them to different servers for scalability.
What methods are available for me to have these app's communicate with each other?

I didn't know where to post this question so I hope I put it in the right forum...I am not new to Visual Basic, however I am definitely not an advanced user. I would like to build an application that would allow me to interact with other programs on my computer. For example, if I were to build an application that could control iTunes, how would I go about this?
Or, I am looking to make an application that would allow me to do little things on my computer like disable my track pad if I have a mouse plugged in. How would I build something that could interact with windows (or iTunes) like that?

I'm working on an app at the moment that requires a bunch of apps not made by me to run. The user has to be able to put some inputs into these other apps, but after that I'd like to have a button they can push on my app that minimizes all of these other apps under one icon I can choose. When the icon is clicked, these other apps would jump back up again.

I realize this post is rather long, but I wanted to give all the information up front instead of people having to ask me for more information.At the end of the re-installation of Visual Studio 2008, there is this message:
"Microsoft SQL Publishing Wizard: [2] Error: Installation failed for component Microsoft SQL Publishing Wizard. MSI returned error code 1638" in the log file dd_error_vs_procore_90.txt.
I have searched on Google for this whole message and found some references to this error, but I have done what they said worked for them and it did not fix the problem for me.When I searched for just "MSI returned error code 1638", I got that it cannot install something because it is already installed:"Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel".In Add/Remove Programs I see these two programs:
Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard 1.3
Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard 1.4
Are these programs/versions what the error is refering to? Am I safe to remove them and depend on the similarly-named item which would be newly installed with Visual Studio 2008 - "Microsoft SQL Publishing Wizard"? I still use SQL Server 2000 and 2005 on my computer, as well as 2008. I had installed VS 2008 on my computer before without this problem and also have VS 2005 and 2010.

I am developing an application which launch an external windows app, ei called APL.exe Also, this APL.exe launch two console utils, ie. named CON1.exe and CON2.exe I would like to know if is there any way, after APL.exe has died, of killing CON1.exe and CON2.exe, because there is a small possibility that they will not died completly after APL.exe has exited.Also there is another requirement. My final app version could be executed twice in the same machine, so there could be two instances of CON1.exe and CON2.exe, and because this I need a way to kill them not by process name, but knowing which of them has been launched by my current application instance.

I migrated some applications from Visual Studio 2005 to Visual Studio 2010. I develope using VB.NET in VISUAL STUDIO 2010 on a Windows 7 PC (32 bit). The applications writed in VB.NET - VS2005 run correctly in PC having XP, VISTA, WINDOWS 7 and Windows Server 2008. After the migration, the exe of these applications work correctly in PC having XP, Vista, Windows 7 but work stop immediatly on Windows Server 2008. The error returned is 'System.InvalidOperationException'. Seems that the application stop when attempt to evaluate the first global variable that meets. If i change the framework from 2.0 to 3.5, things don't change.
