I recently repaired VS2005 after getting a publish error.

Now i get this error. Any ideas??

Error 2 SignTool reported an error 'Failed to sign bin\Release\TBRHelp.publish\setup.exe. SignTool Error: ISignedCode::Sign returned error: 0x80880253

The signer's certificate is not valid for signing.

SignTool Error: An error occurred while attempting to sign: bin\Release\TBRHelp.publish\setup.exe

Hello,

I had this exact same problem last week. To solve this problem in VS2008 I did the following:

1. I right clicked on the project and selected properties.

2. Then I clicked on the signing tab.

3. Then I checked the box next to "Sign the Click Once Manifests".

4. Then I pressed the button "Create Test Certificate" and followed the process.

This worked for me, I hope it works for you.
