Hi All I have created a windows form application using VS 2010, Entity Framework and MYSQL database. Database is hosted at some hosting company and is accessible from every where. Now when I create an step up of my application and install on other systems it stops working. No error message nothing. Please help if anyone have build windows form application with entity framework and successfully installed on other machines.
Tried so much on google but no luck.
Hi All I have found solution. The problem is with use of MYSQL database in my application. I have used MYSQL connector and it is causing the problem. I simply install MYSQL connector to remote machines and it solves the problem.

I have an application which uses ClickOnce and I was wondering what is the best way to deploy the application on a Windows server for specific groups?
Anyone got any experience with this?
Thanks and best regards

The answer for me, is to create a shared folder on the server, use the UNC path to publish directly to the server and then only once, install the software, once I publish again, it will show as an update.
I have just finished an standalone desktop application in C# and .Net. For the app, I need to access several existing SQL Server tables for various data. I accomplished it with Entity Framework 6 code first. My question is how I should update the connection string in app.config during a customer installation to reflect customer's SQL Server configurations. What steps are generally involved? What options are available to me? I'll use Inno Setup for the app installation.
Thank you.
I've a Windows Form c# application which uses Oracle.DatabaseAccess.dll for communicating with oracle database.
After generating a MSI and installing on my laptop everything works great.
However when I try to install the same application on my colleague's laptop the connection doesn't work. It shows incompatible provider.
Could someone please help me out where can I get the pre-requisites for running application that uses oracle database?
I suspect it runs fine on my machine as I've installed oracle express database. But I don't want to install this on all machine where this application needs to be run.
Thank you.
I’m new to vs2010 and the entity framework (and ASP.NET MVC as well....I’m from a winforms vs2005 background) as well as the azure platform and am starting a project using these technologies soon.
I’ve installed vs2010 and the windows azure sdk kit for vs2010 and am running through this tutorial, Deploying an ASP.NET Web Application to a Windows Azure Cloud Service and SQL Database.
http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/net/tutorials/cloud-service-with-sql-database/
I’ve got as far as the ‘Add SQL support’ section, followed the instructions and when I compile and run no database is being created.
And I’m using sql server 2008 r2.
Any ideas why this is the case? Nothing at all is being shown in the sql server log. My connection details look fine, am I missing some kind of add on or some permission settings need changing?
Cheers,
I've sorted this myself. If you wish to know the answers I've posted them in the comments on the tutorial page, just follow the link (names Mathew in the comments section).

I am trying to deploy a LightSwitch application to a hosted ASP.NET webserver in my company. The application access data stored on a SQL Server. My webserver admin is asking me if there are any special prerequisites needed for it to run. I've been reviewing the deployment guide
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bethmassi/archive/2010/09/23/configuring-a-machine-to-host-a-3-tier-lightswitch-application.aspx
The article lists that there was a server component, but that it might change when RTM arrived:
NOTE: The team is looking at simplifying this process and possibly making the LightSwitch server component pre-reqs go away so this process will likely change for RTM.
This other MSDN article states that there are prerequisites.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg481779.aspx
My webserver admin keeps saying there's nothing to install on the ASP.NET web server other than .NET 4.0.
Am I missing something?
Server setup procedures haven't changed since Beta 1 (although of course the runtime has changed). It's pretty simple; the prerequisites article that you cited has the correct information. Basically the process is:
Install the Web Platform Installer if you don't already have it installed
Fire up the WPI and search for the LightSwitch runtime
Install!
As mentioned in the article, you'll need to decide whether you want to install a new instance of SQL Server locally with the prerequisites. If you've already planned for a production SQL Server, you'll want to choose the "without local SQL" option.
I don't have a specific answer, but I would stand up a VM with the appropriate version of windows server on it and run through an install on a do novo machine. Should confirm or deny what your server admin says . . .
