installer error

If I deploy part of my webproject to a W2K Server I get
the following error if I try to use a custom installer:
unable to get installer types in the .....dll assembly =>
One or more of the types in the assembly unable to load.
If I exclude the custom installer everything installs
correctly. On my development system XP professional the
above error is not raised and everything install
correctly including the custom installer [installer
class]. Also if I deploy webservice to the W2K Server
including also a custom installer to update the
web.config file no error occurs. Fundamentally the
package in which the error occurs is the same as the
webservice package. I would wonder what is going wrong
and why the installer type can not be found in one
package and has no problem to be found in an other
package.

Hi, I am trying to create an installer for my web application. So I added a web setup project to my solution (I am using VS.NET 2003). Been playing around with it since then and it basically works. Now, I am wondering if there is any way to change the directory that the installer installs the files to. I want to be able to put my files in a specified directory (user specified is good, but i don't mind hardcoding the path either) and...

I have added a 'Textboxes (A)' to my UI installer project along with a custom action to pass the value back to a class I've written to override the void Install function. As long as the text is very simple everything is working just fine. I've tested it by writing the string out to a text file to test it. However, the trouble comes in when I use the textbox for what I really intended, a ADO.Net Connection String. The textbox is to...

I've created an installation package for my program. Before installation, I use the User Interface to get values that are added to the registry. One of the values that the user must add is a path to a required input file for the program. I'm finding that if the user enters a path which contains a space (example: c:\Program Files\myProgram\file.txt) that the install will return a file not found error and abort the install. I don't...

It gives me the error "An error occured while downloading a required file. You may retry...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
