View 3 RepliesI've been busy with work and other bits and bobs and not really had much time for programming... but anyway, I have just written a fairly simple windows service in VB.NET and although I can install it on my PCs/servers using the command line InstallUtil.exe component, this isnt ideal for other people that may need to install it without my assistance.
So basically I just need to know how to get a normal Setup and Deployment VS project to install this service itself... I thought it would be as simple as selecting the service assembly to include in the deployment project and building it, but unfortunately that seems to do naff all. Do I need to use a 'Custom Action' in the setup project (and if so, how/what do I do?)
I built a Windows application and I created the setup file and it installs and runs like I want it to. I would like the application to install in a certain directory on the computer it is installing on. That means the setup has to create the directory and install the application in it.I also have folders with pictures and a sound file I would like it to install in a separate directory under the directory previously created.
View 2 RepliesI need to install a windows service via an .msi for many tablets which is nooooo problem. The problem is, the tablets currently have the service running which was installed by installutil. So when my installer runs, regardless of Remove Previous Version is true, it stops stating the service already exists and to uninstall it from Add/Remove Programs.So I wrote a console app which preceeds the primary output as follows:
Sub Main()
Try
Dim filename As String = "C:Program FilesRSCProjectServiceSetupRSCProjectService.exe"
'Dim filename As String = "C:RSCProjectServiceRSCProjectServiceinDebugRSCProjectService.exe"
If System.IO.File.Exists(filename) Then
[code]....
Is there any way to force a setup project to install the program with administrative rights? (or asking the user por permission each time it runs)I coded an application on XP, and now I have problems on Vista/Win 7.

View 1 RepliesI'm making a setup project for my application. I have a file, dbconnection.xml, that I want to be installed to C:Program filesmyAppdbconnection.xml regardless of where the user chooses to install the application. I've added the program files 'special folder' and have a subfolder, myApp, under that where I place this xml file.
For whatever reason, no matter where the user installs the application to, the XML file is placed in the install directory, not in c:program filesmyApp.

View 3 RepliesI created a new Windows Service and a stand alone set up program for it. To the solution I added a set up program project and included both programs as outlined in [url]... However, when I run the Setup program, I do not see the my new service in the services window after the set up program completes. Is there additional work that needs to be done to have the program install the windows service correctly or do I need to include the [url]... program and a batch file to get it installed?

I am trying to install VB6 (actually, visual Studio 6) on Win7. In the very early steps of setup, I am stuck to "Need to install Microsoft Java Virtual Machine". If I uncheck the JVM box, I am not allowed to continue. If i check it, I am told that JVM is unsupported for Win7, the PC is rebooted (why?), and on restart i am to the same JVM required spot. I need to perform some maintenance on some old project, just too big to be ported to .NET (if the only thing I can do is to port them, I'd rather port to Delphy or C++ codegear: I am not so crazy to do the same mistake twice, and use the new M$ junk to replace the old M$ junk). I have payed good money for the licence of Visual Studio 6, for a PERPETUAL licence. I DEMAND M$ let me use it.
