How to Deploy my Vb.net 2005 application on server ? [modified] hemrk11-Jul-06 11:19 hemrk 11-Jul-06 11:19  have a windows application that accesses a oracle database. I need to deploy it on an intranet. It is an application that will be access by several end users. I would like to deploy it in one common place and let end users execute the same exe thus making it easy it implement changes as they will be needed. How do you deploy a winform application in this manner? i've already build msi file and i am deploying on my server but it gives me error that shows unhandled exception. and also it is running fine on couple of computer ..that i installed on them independently. it is running fine.

Gavin Jeffrey11-Jul-06 14:13 Gavin Jeffrey 11-Jul-06 14:13  you should look into clickonce deployment. Basically all you need to do is right click on your project and click on publish. There is a lot of info from Microsoft on this. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/t71a733d.aspx Re: How to Deploy my Vb.net 2005 application on server ? hemrk12-Jul-06 3:03 hemrk 12-Jul-06 3:03  Hey Gavin Thanks for ur suggetion. i've added setup project in my solution. then also i've to do clickonce deployment? Thanks hemaxi Re: How to Deploy my Vb.net 2005 application on server ? Dave Kreskowiak11-Jul-06 16:46 Dave Kreskowiak 11-Jul-06 16:46  Any machine that the application runs on is going to have to have the Oracle 8i Client installed on them at a minimum. The Oracle provider in .NET can't work without it. Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP - Visual Basic Re: How to Deploy my Vb.net 2005 application on server ? hemrk12-Jul-06 3:12 hemrk 12-Jul-06 3:12  Hey Dave, Thanks man. yeah..every machine have oracle 9i installed . my question is The Oracle Provider for .NET is not installed on every machine. should i install on every machine or if only on server will be fine. b/c several ppl is going to use this application.its tedious job to install on every client machine . pls. reply me as soon as possible. i am stuck here with the deployment . if you have any idea how to deploy my application on server then let me know. actually what i did is..i ve added setup project in my solution. and built it. and create .msi file. when i am installing on the other machine and if it has ODP (oracle provider for net) installed on that its running perfectly. but it doesnt have that then its gives me error: "TNS couldnt resolve the service name" and i am using System.Data.OracleClient and have referenced to my solution. i m not using DataAccess.dll i've not referenced to this dll. i dont have any idea. If u can reply me.that will be great. Thanks a lot.. Hemaxi Re: How to Deploy my Vb.net 2005 application on server ?

It's part of the .NET Framework Base Class Library, so if the .NET Framework is installed, so is the Oracle Provider. ... Or are you talking about the ODBC .NET Data Provider[^]??? If your using this, then, yes, you have to install it on every machine that's going to run your app. Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP - Visual Basic -- modified at 12:45 Wednesday 12th July, 2006 Re: How to Deploy my Vb.net 2005 application on server ? hemrk12-Jul-06 7:27 hemrk 12-Jul-06 7:27  Thanks..for the info. let me look at the oracle provider..and will get back to u soon...

Question! Is there a way to set up the installer of a VB.NET program that will you set a condition to evaluate that will give the user the choice of either creating a desktop shortcut or not? Any help would be fantastic! Re: Conditional Installer of Desktop Shortcut using VB.NET Dave Sexton11-Jul-06 20:43 Dave Sexton 11-Jul-06 20:43  hope this[^] helps. Re: Conditional Installer of Desktop Shortcut using VB.NET Yojimbojinn12-Jul-06 1:14 Yojimbojinn 12-Jul-06 1:14  Unfortunatly no. When you create the shortcut via the file system editor, the shortcut you create does not have a place for checking the condition from one of the installation dialog boxes that I have seen unless I am overlooking something. If all about are losing their head while you keeping yours, you must be the one holding the axe! BUG? '' Len Miller11-Jul-06 6:47 Len Miller 11-Jul-06 6:47  ---------------------------------------- Visual Studio 2003 v7.1.3088 .NET Framework 1.1.4322 SP1 ---------------------------------------- I have a large WinForms project. I have a form where I added a checkbox chkIsEmployee. Sporatically, I get errors: 'chkIsEmployee' is not a member of 'ClearView.SMS.frmStudentManagement' However, all of the designer code appears to be intact: ... [Line 133] Friend WithEvents chkIsEmployee As System.Windows.Forms.CheckBox ... [Line 181] Me.chkIsEmployee = New System.Windows.Forms.CheckBox ... [Line 346] Me.grpDemographics.Controls.Add(Me.chkIsEmployee) ... ' 'chkIsEmployee ' [Line 371] Me.chkIsEmployee.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(222, 99) [Line 372] Me.chkIsEmployee.Name = "chkIsEmployee" [Line 373] Me.chkIsEmployee.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(92, 16) [Line 374] Me.chkIsEmployee.TabIndex = 16 [Line 375] Me.chkIsEmployee.Text = "is employee" ... Now, I open the form, and the checkbox control is visibly gone. It is almost as though the compiler is ignoring line 133. All lines after 133 have the error - not 133. I rebuild the app and sometimes, suddenly all is OK. I have tried deleteing the checkbox and re-adding it. The problem keeps re-surfacing. It was doing this behavior on a different control before. Later, I open the form, and the control is gone again, but all the declaritive code in the form is still there. This happened to me before (in this project with a different form), and I had to create a new form, paste controls on, paste my code in, delete the old form and the behavior went away. I tried that here, but the behavior keeps comming back. Is anyone aware of a bug or a fix for this?

'' [modified] Dave Kreskowiak11-Jul-06 9:24 Dave Kreskowiak 11-Jul-06 9:24  Yep, it's a bug in the IDE. Nope, there is no permanant fix for it yet. You've already discovered the only work around I know of. SP1 for Visual Studio 2003 should be comming out sometime last month. Oh! Have you installed SP1 for the .NET Framework 1.1??

Do you know of any solution regarding having a parent form (MDIparent) calling a DLL and the DLL will be known as child to MDIparent? Looking forward hearing from you. Kjartan Þór Guðmundsson Re: DLL as child form in MDI form Dave Kreskowiak11-Jul-06 16:53 Dave Kreskowiak 11-Jul-06 16:53  Your question doesn't make any sense. I .DLL cannot be a child of anything, except a process in a round-about way. Is this .DLL supposed to be returning a Form? Without any details about your .DLL, there's really not much anyone can do to help you. Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP - Visual Basic Re: DLL as child form in MDI form Dave Sexton11-Jul-06 20:47 Dave Sexton 11-Jul-06 20:47  is the DLL a separate user control with a form? Re: DLL as child form in MDI form kjarrig12-Jul-06 0:11 kjarrig 12-Jul-06 0:11  Sorry about the unaccurate question. The DLL is a form, I'm building a large project and have no intention to have in one project. Kjartan Re: DLL as child form in MDI form Dave Kreskowiak13-Jul-06 5:29 Dave Kreskowiak 13-Jul-06 5:29  This form is it's own class library? Then all you would have to do is create an instance of it, just like any other form: Dim newForm As New MyDllForm newForm.Parent = Me newForm.Show() Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP - Visual Basic Re: DLL as child form in MDI form kjarrig14-Jul-06 12:57 kjarrig 14-Jul-06 12:57  I get this errormessage. An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in system.windows.forms.dll Additional information: Cannot add a top level control to a control. Kjartan Re: DLL as child form in MDI form kjarrig31-Jul-06 6:03 kjarrig 31-Jul-06 6:03  instead of newForm.Parent = Me, which gives an error, you should have newForm.MdiParent = Me, and then it works fine.
