clickonce deploy with SSL and client certificates

A clickonce deploy fails when both SSL is enabled and "require client
certificate" enabled on the deploy server.

The deployment seems to fail only because the client would normally require
a prompt that their certificate is being accessed (a function of the security
setting on the issue of the certificate)

While it is logical for the deployment to fail for other warning prompts
(such as SSL server certificate name not matching or invalid), it would seem
that ALL prompts kill the deployment, even this one which is not a warning,
but in fact a verification of something correctly happening.

a) was deployment failure on any prompt intended by microsoft, (even valid
prompts), or is this user prompt just caught up "incidental ly"

b) are there any plans to allow/fix this in the future?

c) I can work around by using windows authentication over SLL rather than
certificates for deployment, but this rather defeats the purpose of having
certificates in the first place. Doe anyone know of a better workaround?

Regards, Andrew

Hi, I've have searched google, but can't find a solution to my problem. Om my develloper machine, I use one app.config, but when I deploy, I need to deploy another app.config.

The tiers are all on different nodes and we have around 1000 client users. We currently deploy the web services with Wise and adjust the database (cluster) manually. The clients should be...

We have a VS2005 Team setup and are developing a Windows app (smart client). We are in the cattle feeding business and have 10 distinct feedyards across the U.S. When we wish to deploy an update to our app, we must change an app setting in the project (the IP where the data access layer is) and also the URL in the ClickOnce (to correspond to a server at a particular feedyard). Once we publish, we have to change the app setting and the URL...

How can I make it so that these content files from the one...

I have a winform app written in C# which accesses a web service using a dynamic URL (configured in the app.config). When I deploy this app via ClickOnce it builds the app.config into the manifest and each client gets it perfectly. The probelm is that I have a 4-tier environment, one for each phase of the development lifecycle. I need the DEV version of the app to hit the DEV version of the web service, TEST to TEST, QA to QA, and PROD to...

Hi, I have a .NET / COM DLL. On the client the COM object is created by a application using VBScript (Windows Scripting). I try to deploy the .NET / COM DLL using ClickOnce deployment. I know that it is only possible to deploy a Windows Forms - no DLL. Well, my idea is to deploy a "dummy" Windows Forms app, that references the .NET / COM DLL. The next problem is how to register the .NET / COM DLL on the client. My next idea was to...

Hi, I have an application that I am encrypting the connection strings on the first run of the application. I am using clickonce to deploy the application, so this was a good solution as the application is immediately run and the config file is encrypted immediately. How ever, when the application is deployed a second directory with "_none_" in the name is created and the app.config is copied there too.The app.config in the _none_...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
