View 4 RepliesI have written a program and deployed using clickonce to all desktop users. Additionally, the program is also installed (non clickonce) on a terminal server. (For security reasons, these users cannot install on their desktops). I need to add some code to the current program but only need this code to happen if it's being run as a Non ClickOnce Application. Does anyone know how to determine if the running version is a clickonce or not? Is there something in System.Deployment.Application that identifies?

View 5 RepliesSince it will be run by the user I don't want the user to have to do anything but send the IT department the log file it creates.
What I want to do is see if a folder on the network can be opened successfully. I do not want to ping it, but actually open it and see if it loads. I can do this for a website by retrieving the http status code, but I can't find any references to something similar for explorer.exe. Here is a basic flowchart of this part of the program:
ping server --yes--> access \server_namefolder
--no--> access \server_IPfolder
--no--> Authentication Issue
--yes--> DNS Issue
Note also that just checking authentication won't work because it could also be a DNS problem. I guess I could check them both, but I would rather do it this way if possible (and I don't know how to go about checking either one)
I have been investigating this for several hours. I have found numerous links, including several here on SO which claim to show how to find the startup path, or the application directory. All of the solutions suggested return a location:
C:Users<my user name>AppDataLocalApps2.0XO8PWL8B.5HH1GZX7M0H.N1J<temp location>
When my WPF xbap is run from a remote location. I need to determine the actual folder of the remote location. I am deploying this to an internal server ABCDEF, so in order to run this application I am entering:
\ABCDEFmyApp.xbap
I want to programmatically determine the server and folder. My reason for this is that each time you publish a WPF with "automatically increment revision with each publish" turned on. The folder where additional DLL's are located changes, additional programs that this program depends on. I want to be able to dynamically determine the correct folder to look at.
I have tried:
'Dim path As String = Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location
'Dim Path As String = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location)
'System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection. Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.Location)
'application.StartupPath
All of which did not work.These links suggested many of the methods I have tried:
Link1
Link2
Link3
Link4
Link5
I am looking to get the folder that my website is running under. I have used many different methods within HttpContext.Current.Request but none of them were returning what I was looking for. I can easily get the value using substring but it doesn't look very clean and was wondering if there was a shorthand way of getting the folder.

View 2 RepliesSo I wrote a VB.net project in Visual studio.I have a scheduled task that is set to run the program every morning at 10AM. If I use windows explorer and double click the application, it runs fine.If I open task scheduler, open the task properties, and browse to the application, then choose run, the program fails, due to Runtime exceptions.I know I have the path entered correctly, since I can debug the instance when it crashes from the task scheduler. VS2010 pulls up my source code.The exception is System.IO.FileNotFoundException, remember, it works fine when I double click the app. If attach a debugger to the process after it is executed from the task scheduler, I can then restart the debugger, and Voila!, The application runs fine.
