My clickonce app fails when the install button on the publish.htm page is
clicked.
User is prompted with a "Cannot Start Application" dialog.
Details provided from the dialog are:

Project built on Windows Xp sp3 using Visual Studio 2008 sp1 and .Net
framework 3.5 sp1.

Install is targeting same machine.

Launching windowsFormsApplication.application directly works without error.
 
Oops, I forgot to staet the obvious! The signing properties page DOES have a
valid cerificate, been using it for years, and "Sign the Clickonce manifests"
IS checked.

Security settings are ENABLED and requested to run as a "FULL TRUST"
application.

Here is my .application manifest:

To clarify - I am also getting the same error when I try to install
clickonce and I have tried everything online searching for an answer and the
only google search keeps coming to your post.

my error is exactly the same.

I have tried to resolve this error:
- Your Web browser settings do not allow you to run unsigned applications.
by going to IE7 security and turning it all off and it doesnt do anything.

Thanks

SUCCESS!!!
Got it working.
After the Fire Fox test and I had the same issues
- it got me thinking it not a browser issue, and using the assumption that
it defenitly doesnt look like a vs issue ( since the files are created
properly )...i was left with 2 options.
Vista security or IIS

I started searching the IIS forums and found my answer.
http://forums.iis.net/p/1152570/1882738.aspx
It doesnt say how however - so this is the next link that showed me how.
http://weblogs.asp.net/anasghanem/a...ontent-service-quot-in-iis7-installation.aspx

One more thing I had to reboot for the setting to take effect.

Thank you for your time and your help.

You can close this ticket.

Cheers'
