Hello,
I try to debug an application - Visual Studio 2005, C#, .NET2.0 - on a DataLogic Jet running WinCE.NET Version 4.20 (not Second Edition).
I installed .NET CF2.0 SP1. Debugging starts with deploying System_SR_enu_WM.CAB. This fails with ".. not a valid Windows CE Setup file". I tried to install in manually, which failed with same message.
Debugging works but I there occurs an error in calling a web service. error.message does not contain information about the error.
How can I install System_SR_enu_WM.CAB on this device
Thanks for help.

not a valid Windows CE SETUP file

System_SR_en_wm.cab is for Windows Mobile 5.0 only, it can't be installed on anything else. There's System_SR_en.cab which you should use on Windows CE and PPC 2003.
Please keep in mind Windows CE 4.2 is not officially supported by VS 2005.

How did you develop WinCE 4.2 app using VS2005 There is no direct support for developing managed WinCE 4.2 apps using VS. NETCF 2.0 being available on WinCE 4.2 means you can develop applications but cannot directly debug them on the device.
System_SR_enu_WM.CAB file is for Windows Mobile and not WinCE so it won't install.
What is the error you're receiving when calling a web service

Hello,
originally I devoloped the app for Windows mobile 5. There it runs without problems and I had no problems debugging it.
On my own PDA with WinCE4.20 second edition - not the DataLogic - it ran too without problems debugging it.
For the DataLogic Jet - a barcode terminal with WinCE .NET 4.20 - I switched the platform to Pocket PC 2003.
After installing NET2.0 CF SP1 the application ran on this device - except the call of the web service and deploying System_SR_en_wm.cab. Debugging works too.
I don’t have information about the error calling the web service. I think this is because of missing contents of System_SR_enu_wm.cab. The message error is something like:
No error message can be shown because of missing optional resource of assembly containing the error message.." ( in german)
Again: debugging on the DataLogic almost works. Only missing error description ( and failing call to the web service).
What can I do
Is there a way to get further information about the error
Hope you can help me.

Can you please post the emglish version of the message It appears that your app is unable to connect and getting some WebException. Check the connectivity from your device.
