I have a WPF, ClickOnce application that I am trying to build using the Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine. I believe my question actually boils down to "how do I do the command line /target:publish using Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine"? I've tried the following projectToBuild.SetProperty("PublishUrl", myPublishUrl); projectToBuild.Targets.Ad...
I have a ClickOnce WPF application that I am using Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine to build. Everything appears to be working correctly, but when doing a targeted build to publish the application it is putting the published output to .\bin\Release\app.publish This is despite setting the properties "PublishURL", "OutDir", "WebProjectOutputD...

I'm distributing an application via ClickOnce (runs 'online' from network'), included in the app are a couple of text files which are copied to the deployment location correctly when published.

Is that possible? If so... how? Question Clarification: 9/26/2009 I know that it is possible to ...
I built my application in VB.NET and tried to use the publish feature in VS2008. I uploaded it to my webserver and cannot get the darn thing to work! No matter the client and no matter which method I choose (Publish to cd/dvd or webserver), I always get this error. I can, after some labor, get the application to run by itself, however. ...
we're considering migrating our UI to XBAP. we've chosen XBAP despite knowing the clients must have .net pre-installed, since we're not targeting the masses but rather IT professionals in the corporate environment, and it's a way to preserve our investment (in a WPF based UI in a client-server architecture) and enjoy web deployment. how...
I have an application that stores a collection of objects in the user settings, and is deployed via ClickOnce. The next version of the applications has a modified type for the objects stored. For example, the previous version's type was: public class Person { public string Name { get; set; } public int Age { get; set; } } And ...
I have only made one other ClickOnce application in the past but it generated an HTML file when I published it. I am working on another one now and for some reason it doesn't generate the HTML file. The rest of the files are published fine. I can install if I use a url directly to the setup.exe or .application file but I would like to...
Hi, I want to create an installer to put a Deployed ClickOnce application on an IIS Virtual Directory in order to have the application available for download. (In other words I want an installer that publishes my application on IIS.) What I'm planing to do is: Deploy (manually) the app on a local folder; A web installer project gets t...
Is there a good simple way to detect if a user is using Dial-up, DSL or Cable from a .NET Click-Once application? This is for Intranet through VPN or Extranet purposes not a public app on the Internet. ...
From the VS UI it seems I cannot assign datafiles to a download group. If I change this to 'Include', the datafile gets installed to the app directory and not the data directory. Is this possible at all, or am I chasing fairies? Update: The reason why I need this is due to our database being 20MB while the app is only around 5mb, and...
My .NET 2.0 application imports unmanaged 32 bit dll. The dll is loaded (first interop call happens) when user opens a file via a dialog within the application. When I deploy the application via clickonce with target platform "Any", users on 64 bit windows get BadImageFormatException when trying to open files from the application (at th...

I have just uploaded my published application files to my web server but I am having problems deploying them. When I open the "publish.htm" and click the "Launch" button, it opens the .application file and shows the XML code. Even manually entering the URL for the .application has the same result. I am currently using Firefox 3.5 but ...
I update my ClickOnce app and then when the user runs they are asked if they want to install the new version: I am working in a highly controlled environment. When an update is available it has to be installed (backwards compatibility with the database is not ensured with old versions). Another option is to fail the run if skip is p...
I am trying to deploy a Click Once application (build and publish) using CruiseControl.NET. I cannot find out where I can use the CCNetLabel to set my AssemblyVersion and/or PublishVersion. I would accept other solutions that would allow a unique version number per CruiseControl.NET deployment (Live and Development deployments). ...
