I moved by build environment to XP/SP2/VS2008 32 bit. Rebuilt and redeployed
a simple clickonce application to a second sever (UNC path), 2003 server 32
bit.
Then I tried to launch that application from the deployment directory with
the same results. So this is not a vista vs xp thing. It looks like clickonce
from a unc path just does not work on XP.
My question then, is this functionality supported on XP/SP2? If it is, how
do we go about finding out what is wrong. The property/Publish tab for the
project sure indicates that file path is a valid destination.
"Opens with:" for the .application extension is set to "Application
Deployment Support Library", which is the same on the vista machines where
this works correctly.
By the way, these clickonce apps work on all copies of vista that we have
installed here, both 32 and 64 bit.
