Clickonce Deployment

superpuz · 2013-01-03

I'm trying to use click once deployment on NAV 2013. I've been following instruction in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh997056%28v=nav.70%29.aspx and fail

.

Q1: Is it has to be Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and the .NET Framework 4. that must be installed? where? what if my server is Windows 2008 R2 x64? is it OK installing Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5? The Windows SDK for Windows 7 is failed to install in windows 2008 R2

.

I've tried this:
1. Install the Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5 and execute the similar syntax as shown in the guide.
Result = Error when calling the Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Client.application

Is there any clue what's gone wrong?

From what I understand is that .NET framework 4 that has to be installed. 3.5 is insufficient because NAV was released on that version because .NET 3.5 gave performance issues.

And customHostSpecified is a VSTO only property and should not be in a Windows Forms application.
Did you upgrade this project from VS08 to vs2010/2012?

Also, this is a problem related to .NET and not to NAV. Other fora might give you better leads.

Hi,

We are facing the same issue: "The customHostSpecified attribute is not supported for Windows Forms applications"

Is there some solution for this?

NAV 2017 CU4
.NET: 4.5.2
OS: Windows Server 2012 R2

UPDATE:

I was following “How Do I Deploying Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 Windows Client Using ClickOne” video from youtube and seems that the video gives wrong instructions by not using parameter “–from directory” in mage.exe command. This will corrupt the manifest file (see https://forum.mibuso.com/discussion/65128/clickonce-error-with-nav2015)

Problem was solved by putting the parameter in mage command

Howdy, Stranger!
