Hi
I have a Database Application that i am trying to install on the Clients
machine, the application uses three custom Ms access Databases. Those
database i added in the correct folder in the SETUP Project of my
application
However, perhaps due to the size of the Databases (appx 500 mb), or some
other reason when i try to build the SETUP project, it fails, right in the
start giving an ERROR, not enough DISK SPACE to complete this operation.
I even changed the properties of my SETUP project, making it as CAB files
but still the same error
Does anyone know how to distribute databases or large group of files with
applications or this just can't be done
Any help would be greatly appreciated
With Regard
Sunny

How much free space do you have on your drive?

Guys I have more than 80 GB free HARD DISK
I have created three FOLDERS on my Setup Project, which i want to be CREATED on the CLIENTS machines and Added the Database (ACCESS) files that i need to be copied to the clients in these folders
IT always used to work before, that is when the ACCESS files were small, like a couple of hundred MBs, but since now the
access files are like 500 MB each, the build SETUP throws an error while just starting
This is so frustrating !!
Any Help will be greatly appreciated

If each database is 500 MB, how many databases are there? What file system
is your client using? If your client is using FAT32, it is possible that you
are creating installation files that exceed the file size limitations of
FAT32, but things are fine when you are running it on NTFS.
