ClickOnce upgrade fails, System.Deployment.Internal.Isolation.StoreTransactionOperationType (27) - HRESULT: 0x8007001f

Question

I've a ClickOnce application. On one machine - Windows 7 (works on others) an upgrade failed - the installation is served by Apache. The entire log is ... long, but the only thing that errors are this:

This is not very helpful. Has anyone experienced something similar and tracked down a solution ? I've heard suggestions that installation files made read only can cause this, but I can not track down any read only files under C:\Users\testuser.TESTDOMAIN\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0

Answer 1

There is a verified conflict between ClickOnce and Kensington trackball mouse drivers (random, I know). Computers with the mouse driver that attempt to run a ClickOnce application will receive the "A device attached to the system is not functioning." error.

Hope this helps.
