Publishing with ClickOnce

This is my first attempt at using ClickOnce. It seems it is publishing
OK, but I can't run the install. If I use IE, I just see XML in the web
browser. If I use Firefox, I download a setup file, run it, then see XML
in the browser. I'm using Windows 2000, though my friend tried it on XP
and got the same results. Any suggestions?

I've tried on 4 different computers with the same results - I always see
just the xml :(

I guess you were publishing to a web site. How are you trying to access the
published application? Have you tried publishing to a local drive/network
share? Does anything change when publishing to local drive?

Make sure you have .Net 2.0 installed on your server. It adds some
stuff to IIS so the file types get recognised.

I have a simple application built with several DLLs that access XML files for information. My local setup works just fine. As defined in my Install folder, the files are copied to the "application folder" and the DLLs find them just fine. However, when I publish the same application to a local server for users to use the "click once" install feature, my XML, XMS files are NOT copied to the local machine's application folder. All other...

While ASP.Net is migrating toward more robust presentation by using things like AJAX I am wondering if ClickOnce will errode a lot of ASP.Net presence in Corporate Applications. I've been reading a lot about ClickOnce and it seems compelling particularily since Vista will have the .Net framework included along with the other requirements for ClickOnce deployment. Is there some downside to ClickOnce deployment that I'm now aware of? ...

I Clickonce published a very simple (a form with a button) VB6 application to my hosted web site. Clicking install should cause the form to download and open but, instead causes the XML application script text to show in the browser window. This is repeatable when install is attempted to any of 3 different XP systems (including the development system) and 2 different webs but works just like it supposed to when I installed from the...

I have a Win app that references a class library project. Within the latter, there is a remoting.config file. When I publish my app using ClickOnce, it errors telling me it can't find the remoting.config file. How do I get this thing to "go along" with the project? Of course, its impossible to see what ClickOnce actually copies to the client hard drive as is so cryptic and hidden from what I remember.

Hi, I've finished my first VB 2008 application (an Office Add-in) and I'm now trying to create a Click Once install. I've selected Build, Publish and entered the address of my Web Site. The build and Publish seem to happen (I'm asked for login details for the site) but using FrontPage I can't see any files added to the site at the address specified. The icon for the folder I created has changed from a yellow folder to a web icon in a...

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

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
