Two blank error dialogs running setup.exe

On running the setup.exe from my clickonce deployed application I am getting two blank error dialogs immediately. However, double-clicking the .application file runs my application with no problems. Does anyone know how to fix this Quite a few of our developers are experiencing this problem.

    setup.exe all it does is to check the pre-requisites. Do you have any pre-requisites If you have make sure you are not expecting the pre-requsities are not in clients GAC..

    There is nothing in the temp directory. I don't think it gets as far as starting the installation.

  • vtortola

    Delete the setup.exe from where Because I deleted it from the published directory and I am still having the problem. :(

  • kewlbuddy

    Can you see if there's an installation log Go to the temp directory and look for the newest folder named VSD*. In that folder should be install.log... can you post that



  • ivl

    I managed to fix this by doing the following:
    1. Delete Setup.exe
    2. uncheck "Sign the ClickOnce manifests" under the project properties
    3. Republish
