I have an app I wrote in WPF, which I publish by right-clicking on the project in Visual Studio 2013. This produces a set of files which I zip up and make available for users to download and install.
This has been working fine for a while, but today a user told me that he can't install the latest version. It gets as far as the install dialog, then just hangs there. If you kill the install, the app doesn't show up in the list of installed programs, but in Task Manager, I can see that the app itself is actually running, but has three instances running. I can't kill any of these, and have to restart the machine.
He's using Windows 7 Home Premium if it makes any difference.
I've tried uninstalling the old version and restarting his machine several times, but it doesn't help. The app installed fine on my machine, and as far as I know, nothing has changed on his machine.
Any ideas what's gone wrong? Don't know if I missed out any important details. If so, please let me know and I'll fill them in.
In case it helps anyone, it turned out to be to do with the certificate. I thought I was using one, but his machine seemed to think I wasn't. We had to turn off UAC and then right-click the exe to unblock it. That got him going.
I'm fed up with Click-once. it's been nothing but trouble. I've been playing with InnoSetup, which works really well and doesn't have all these problems. It's also pretty easy to make the app update itself automatically without driving the users mad.
Hope this helps someone.

Good Morning, Good Evening, Good Afternoon everyone. :P Today, I ran into a problem shortly after I updated the Eclipse IDE from Neon 2 to Neon 3. It does appear that I am no longer able to access the MPC (Market Place Client). The help menu no longer has any options for MPC.
I do clarify that I was able to access it once after the update, and I used it to try and download a few plugins that went missing after the update. But for some reason, when I restarted eclipse to finalize the plugin install, the help menu no longer had any links to it. (And the link in the Welcome Screen does nothing in case somebody were to mention it, tho it did give a small notification once telling me there was an exception trying to execute the UI command.)
I am running Arch Linux x86_64 and updated eclipse through pacman in case that's a needed detail. I do believe this to be a bug, but if nobody else is experiencing this, I would definitely appreciate some help.
I still don't entirely understand the problem, but I fixed it by deleting everything in /home/[user]/.eclipse. I can now go about installing updates, new plugins, and the like again.
I just bought a new MacBook Pro 2016 Edition about 2 weeks ago.
I installed a bunch of applications and software so far by copying them into Applications Folder as well as by following installer wizard.
Now today I tried to install Wireshark using installer wizard. I tried to install teamviewer too later today which also uses installer wizard. And both give me the same error.
I really need to resolve this because I need TeamViewer soon and I'm not finding anyone else facing this issue online anywhere.
Please advise.
Thank you
I also encountered such an error before,to solve it dont copy the pakage to your app folder, but instead open it with admin powers and that should fix the issue.
If you have purchased this software then you can call the tech support, else dont call them it can put you in danger for installing pirated software.
I looked everywhere. Didn't find a viable solution. But then reinstalled the OS. Which didn't affect any of my data or installed application. I got the whole Operating System the same way I left it. But resolved the issue I was facing.
I am currently working with a student on a project using easyPHP 16.1. The program/s install fine, and to begin with we can write & test PHP code with no problem. However, on 2 totally separate PCs we have had the same problem occur. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, pages which were working fail to function and we get the following error:-
Failed to connect to DB. Check that the username is valid.
Plugin '*C06327039E918D3247E4438D3785C723719DC8B5' is not loaded
We can't find any reference to this 'plugin' and wondered what is going on. On my own PC, I initially got round the problem by removing easyPHP then reinstalling it, but the student has several hand-ins depending on testing PHP code, and could do without the hassle of repeatedly having to 'fix' the installation. Is there a fix? Is it an easy fix? If there's no fix, should we just use an alternative like WAMP?
This has been a serious issue for Easyphp since ver11.
so for me, after some time of use, I've just dropped using easyphp and switched over to WAMP.
From ver 16.1, Easyphp works in "portable mode" and becomes totally browser-based...
For a simple solution, I'd recommend to check out for alternate mySQL versions in your system, which can be interfering in the same port. Changing the Port No. can be useful in this case...
I'm building a Windows Store app and I'm failing the App Certification Tool test for the Direct3D feature. This is a general app with no specific calls to any graphics feature.
I've tried running the tests on two different machines so I don't think my problem is hardware specific. More, I've tried testing a very basic app stripped of all UI controls except for a text block and I'm receiving the same error. The machines are running RTM builds of Windows 8 and VS2012.
Essentially, I'm asking, what should I look at next to resolve this issue?
Thanks--
Installing all available Windows Updates and try to run WACK again.
I had luck with this method on more than one machine. Apparently, pending updates cause the issue. install the updates, let the machine restart and finish the updating process. The issue should be gone after that.
I've been trying to update my netbeans plugins ever since 7.0.1, but I've never been able to get beyond half of the installation bar. It just freezes at around 50% each time. After I close the IDE, it will attempt to update but fail. I've updated to 7.1 but the issue still persists even for the initial Junit plugin installation after a fresh installation of 7.1.
I've attached a screenshot. Does anybody know what is the issue here?
I read in the Definitive Guide to NB Platform 7.1 that you have to install NetBeans (well because of the JUnit) into the folder, where it has write rights. Which is not the Progam Files in Windows 7.
So try to install it for example into C:\Programs or something like that. You can install new version (7.1.1) even without uninstalling the older one and then let the NB get your previous settings (it will ask).
You can try temporarily disabling your firewall and/or antivirus. I got the same problem, and disabling AVG Internet Security everything worked fine. Hope it helps!
I think that problem is in network. So try to change network you are on. I am using university network that has many policies and only JUnit plugin installation stucks. Went to local wireles public network and JUnit plugin was installed successfully.
