Deployment Issue

[Ken]

First time user of .NET. I've created a simple Email application. Created the Install project and made the setup files. I've tested on two computers and it works fine when I install to the local hard drive. Problem occurs when I install to a folder on another server or PC workstation (Win2000 servers; all PC's XP Pro). When I dbl-click the app locally it runs just fine. When I do the samething to a remote folder with the same files I get an Error: Application has generated an exception that could not be handled. Anyone... hints where do I go for more assistance

Sounds like a permissions issue. You probably need to set your machine to
allow .net programs on remote servers to alter your file system.

Hi,

Thanks for your post. As I understand, the problem you are facing is that
your .NET application fails to run when you put the executable file on a
shared network folder, while it works properly on local folder. Please
correct me if there is any misunderstanding. I agree with Marina that the
problem may be caused by the security policy affecting to the file share. I
suggest you to give the file share FullTrust permission as described in the
MSDN article below and check whether or the problem still exists.

I look forward to your result.

Have a nice day! :-)
