VSTO ClickOnce Application Trying To Update Via Visual Studio Local File?
Jan 15, 2012
I've built a VSTO add-in for Microsoft Word and deployed to a webserver. Installation goes off without a hitch. When I create an updated version of the application and redeploy it to the webserver, the add-in correctly detects that there's a new version and attempts to update it. This is where I'm running into the following error (the "xxx" indicates that I had to censor something):url...The customization cannot be installed because another version is currently installed and cannot be upgraded from this location. To install this version of the customization,first use Add or Remove Programs to uninstall this program: xxx. Then install the new customization from the following location: url...This appears to me as if I left a local reference of some sort in my Project, but I can't find anything of the sort. The only reference to this file is within the xxx.vbproj.FileListAbsolute.txt file that's generated in the bin/Debug folder.Not sure if this is also a clue, but I'm seeing Registry Keys added referencing this as the location of the VSTO Project Manifest.

I have built a very simple application which has buttons, and dropdowns containing links to intranet/internet sites.As I have no Idea on how to put them into a database for easy maintenance, this app will no doubt cause me pain.Nevertheless.. When I do create a new revised version of the file.. eg 1.0.0.1 how to I go about setting the application to auto check for updates ?

I've deployed an application inside a corporate network and I want the update process to require less attention from users. Giving them a choice to update is not a porogative.I've written code to detect when new updates are available automatically rather than letting ClickOnce check on application start. I'm wondering if its necessary to restart the app after the update has completed. Currently I invoke at the end of my update script:Application.Restart()
But what if (to make the update process more transparent for the user), I performed a 'silent' update in the background on a separate thread, and then displayed an icon prompting the user to restart the app to apply the changes? Would it work this way?
Furthermore, if I ran my custom InstallUpdate() process on a timer, say every 2 hours, would ClickOnce be happy to continue to update for every new version that was released even thought the user has not restarted (and I'm expecting the updates only to apply once the user restarts the app)?

I have to develop an application using MS Visual Studio 2005 or above with the following objective:
* The application should allow users to create as many new forms as they want and each form should behave like a MS Visual Studio WinForm. By saying that it should be a container for drag and drop of controls from the toolbox that I will develop....
* Once the user design's each screen to his taste by placing various controls on the form, he should be able to save the form as a screen. Of course I have to provide functionality for each of the controls such as if he drags a button on to the form, he should be able to specify what action it has to perfom when clicked when the application is put into run mode. Quite similar to regular windows form button.
* My application should have two modes: a DESIGN MODE, where user can drag, drop controls and specify what they should do when put into RUN MODE. This is quite similar to MS Visual Studio designer.
* Last but not least is to be able to access the application via the browser with the same look and feel his desktop version.

Does anyone know of a way to create a demo disc (CD) of a Visual Basic ClickOnce application? I used to be able to download the exe file and run it. I'd like to show my work via a disc rather than create a file to install on a users' computer.

We have upgraded our project from Visual Studio 2008 to Visual Studio 2010 without any issues until now. Our project contains a folder call Libraries which contains different versions of Oracle ODP.NET DLL's as well as different versions of Telerik DLL's. Our project contains references to one of the versions of each. The problem is once we remove the reference and re-add it by browsing to the new version, again inside the Libraries folder inside the project, it adds the reference, but to the same version we just removed. We can even copy the DLL to our desktop, remove the reference and add to the new one on our desktop and it still will point to the Libraries folder version???. The only we we can actual change the reference to the new DLL is by manually changing the path in the .vbproj file, which is obviously not going to work for us. The same behaviour worked perfectly in VS 2008. We switch our references quite often, when new versions come out, but also far more often to QA different versions of ODP.NET and Telerik Control DLL's, so manually editing the .vbproj file is becoming quickly cumbersome. If I browse to a specific version at a specific path, Visual Studio should ALWAYS do what I'm telling it to do..
I did some seaching and came across a few other people with the same issue. This better not be as designed and if it's a bug, which I believe it to be, when will it be fixed?[URL]..

The environment will not create a resource file for a newly created Windows Forms Application. When I add a button Visual Studio displays a dialog "File Exist". That'sall, plus an OK button. There is no file name or the file name is in unreadable characters.The dialog comes from Visual Studio because the title is "Microsoft Visual Studio".There is no resource file so it must be that the resource file cannot be created.I uninstalled and reinstalled Visual Studio 2008. It did not change anything.I believe the problem was caused by opening the same project rapidly twice on an i7 laptop. I have done this unintentionally before and I can testify that unpredictable

I am developing an application in Vb.Net 2005 and have enabled the installation by clickonce, the update occurs before the application starts. My problem is very simple, the server that contains updates is correctly natted to be available from the outside with a public IP.
The clients who access from an external network connecting without problems, download software and updates. When local clients are connected to the same network of the server (LAN) can not download anything because they try to access the server with the ip public, and the nat does not work . We can not perform operations on the DNS server or hosts file and not even on the router.
I need to figure out if i can use ClickOnce to use more than one distribution server, primary and secondary. I'd like to set as the primary server the public address and the secondary server with internal network ip address.

I'm developing an application in vb.net. You drag any type of file onto the exe, and a window pops up with some options for the file, then it saves the file to a different location, works some SQL magic, etc. It works great for the most part. The only issue I've found is that if the path of the file contains any spaces, the application will crash immediately with the error window:[URl]..I'm using: Private filename as String = Command$ This is located right inside my form's class declaration, not within a sub/function.Without this line, my program runs fine (although useless, without accessing the file).I've also tried (I think this was it, I don't have the code with me at the moment): Private filename as String = Environment.CommandLine So, in vb.net, is there a way to drag a file onto an exe and use that path name, even if there are spaces in the path name?

I have finished working on a vb.net application (using MS Visual Studio 2008). Now I want to make it check for updates automatically before it starts. So, in the Project Properties I selected the Publish tab, set up a publish version (1.0.0.1). As the publish folder, I entered a local folder ("c:\app_publish").

I am trying to deploy a VB.net application that is currently using SQL Server 2008 as its database to connect to.I need this application to be able to include a copy of its data so that wherever I install the application there is no need for them to install SQL Express.
What i have been reading is that I should of been using SQL Server Compact Edition to do this. Is there any way that I can do this with using an .MDF file?If not, is it possible to convert an .MDF file to .SDF and then just include it in my vb.net app?
