Deplying the .NET Framework with an application.

[Dundealing]

I have tried to deploy an application onto a computer which does not have the
..NET Framework installed, and was soon prompted to download it from the
Microsoft site. However, I would prefer to be able to install the .NET
Framework (Version 1.1.4322) at the same time as the application.

I have since downloaded the plug-in and rebuilt the application, but this
leaves me with the .msi file, the setup.exe and the dotnetfx.exe in the
project's release folder.

Which of these do I include in the installation CD-ROM, and if I include all
of them, will it now install the .NET Framework prior to installing the
application?

As a foot note, the computer has XP Professional installed, and as it is a
web application I am working with, it will search for IIS as a launch
condition. Is there anyway to install this during deployment, or is it
solely done using the XP installation disc?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Dundealing,

This is probably what you need.

Cor,

I already have the Bootstrapper plug-in installed on my development machine.
What I need to know is what I should include on the installation CD-ROM. Do
I just put the Setup.exe on the CD, or the Setup.exe, .msi and dotnetfx.exe
as well?

Cor,

Many thanks. Looking at the site again, I see that the dotnetfx.exe is
included in the Setup.exe. I shall still include the dotnetfx.exe on the
installation CD-ROM, but get the user to install the setup.exe and see how it
goes from there.

Once again, many thanks.
