This question is related to my previous question.
I need to publish an application built by C# on VS 2010 (.NET 4.0) to a Windows server 2008 R2.
I just followed the instructions ("publish to a file share or path") here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/31kztyey.aspx
Now, the UNC path specified in the publish profile can be accessed. It is a location of a remote server.
But, in the browser, I can open the link:
\\serverName\e$\myPath\publish.htm
There is an install button on the webpage, it points to
file://serverName/e$/myPath/setup.exe
When I clicked it, it downloaded setup.exe to
C:\Users\myname\Downloads
When I ran it, I got:
* Activation of C:\Users\myName\Downloads\myApp.Host.application resulted in exception. Following failure messages were detected:
+ Downloading file:///C:/Users/myName/Downloads/myApp.Host.application did not succeed.
+ Could not find file 'C:\Users\myName\Downloads\myApp.Host.application'.
System.Net.WebException
- Could not find file 'C:\Users\myName\Downloads\CWIL.Host.application'.
But, the
myApp.Host.application
has been created at:
\\serverName\e$\myPath\Application Files\myApp.Host_2_1_6_7
Did I miss something here ?
Any help would be appreciated.
