hi, am new to install packages in .net. i have a couple of questions
1) well i need to develop an install package for my existing web
application written in asp.net. i used the settings and deployment
option available in .net and created my install package in release
mode. i got the setup.exe and the .msi file created. after installing
it in a remote system, when i access it using the internet explorer . i
get the opening page which is a .asp page . now when i try to access a
..aspx page it displays configuration error ...

to create an install package in .net???
