Question

I do'nt get any failure when I´m publish the application, but when I try to browse the application I got failure and I cant browse the application.

When i try to run http://localhost/MyApp/setup.exe, It says that the file could not be found...

I there someting else I have to do when publish to a Windows Server 2003 Computer compared to Windows XP

Its seems like the problem here was the MIME Types in IIS. By register the followign MIME Types in IIS solved my problem:

• .manifest application/manifest
• .xaml application/xaml+xml
• .application application/x-ms-application
• .xbap application/x-ms-xbap
• .deploy application/octet-stream
• .xps application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument
