I have the same problem. I followed the link you provided and eventually ran
into a broken link. First, let me say I have a fresh install of
XP/VS2K5/SS2K5 using defaults and the install of Notification Services. The
app I am trying to build Setup for uses ADO.NET but not any of the SQL
namespaces. Like Alessandro, the problem exists only if you are conforming to
best practices and do you development in an account that does not have
administrative privilege.
Following the link you provided plus other research in Books Online it
appears 1) VS thinks there are some SQL Server namespaces accessed, 2) those
namespaces use Notification Services and 3) security settings must be
configured for the default Notification Services Instance on the local
machine. Needless to say there is a bug somewhere that causes items 1 and 2.
But I'll move on to #3 in search of a work around.
The default install of SQL Server 2005 with Notification Services does not
create a default Notification Instance. When you try to create one, using the
instructions in the documentation, there is an assumption a default instance
configuration file exists but it does not. Digging in the documentation
further (SQL Server Books Online) to "New Notification Services Instance" it
says "For information about creating a Notification Services application,
including creating an instance configuration file, see Building Notification
Solutions". You click on the Building Notification Solutions link and find it
is broken ("Sorry, no topics were found for the selected link").
I think the solution is to log on an account with administrative privilege,
create a default instance and configure the security settings so the Power
User who is trying to build Setup has the proper permissions. But I am stuck
at square one - how to create a default instance configuration file. Where
can I find the missing documentation?

Hello Alessandro,
When you start "Microsoft sql server 2005 Tool" and configure it, it may
need the account SQLServer2005NotificationServicesUser$ComputerName to have
enough permission to accept the configration. Here is article about
permission setting of Notification Services account
Configuring Windows Accounts for an Instance of Notification Services

You may refer to it to see if this can resolve the problem (without grant
it as a admin).
