visual studio .net setup: ..NETters,

Our MSI image is created using VS2003 setup program. By default,
property VSDSupportedRuntimes is set to 1.1.4322. This makes our
installation work on .NET 1.1 but breaks on .NET 2.0. In order to see
if we can make it work with 2.0, I edited the msi image and changed the
property as follows:
VSDSupportedRuntimes=1.1.4322;2.0.50727

My thought was that we would just need a semicolon separated list for
each of the runtime that we support. However, the runtime-check custom
action still looks only for 1.1.4322.

To experiment with it, I tried a different setting.
VSDSupportedRuntimes=2.0.50727

Although the machine has 2.0.50727 installed, I get an error that the
installation program could not find this version on the machine.

Has anyone managed to get this to work?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,

[quoted text, click to view]

Based on my understanding, you specified the SupportedRuntimes as 2.0.50727
in the properties of your VS2003 setup project's launch condition, but its
corresponding setup package launched failed in the machine which has
..NETFramework 2.0 installed, please let me know if I have misunderstood
anything.

According to description, I have performed some tests , but could not repro
this problem with a VS2003 setup project, the
VSDSupportedRuntimes=2.0.50727 works on my side. So I wonder can you
confirm the target machine has a .NET Framework 2.0.50727 installed? If the
target machine has a VS2005 pre-RTM product installed, then its .NET
Framework 2.0 may have a different version.


Thanks!

Hi Gary,

My setup is as follows.
1. AMD Turnion 64 running Windows 2003 Server 64 bit
2. Final .NET 2.0 version.
3. Most machines have both 1.1 and 2.0 version coexisting. On my
machine, I do not have 1.1 at all. I wonder if that would cause any
problem.

When I run the setup program, the error I get is that it could not find
"2.0.50272" version of .NET runtime.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Pradeep,

Can you repro such problem in any other machines?

Since I am unable to repro this issue in my side, would you please upload a
simple repro setup project(zipped) to us for test, if it is not
inconvenient to you.(Please remove the "online" of my email address alias)


Thanks!

Hi Pradeep,

Thanks for your sample package, I have already downloaded and tested it, it
could work well in my x32 machine, however I haven't a AMD64 machine, so I
didn't make a test like your environment.

In this point, the IA64 environment might be a problem, would you please
tell which version of .NET Framework 2.0 installed in your target machine,
have you tried to run any simple .NET 2.0 applications in that machine, is
it OK?


Thanks!

Hi Gary,

Thanks for your help.

It is good to know that it works well on 32-bit platforms.

I am running the final verion of .NET 2.0 as installed by the released
version of VS.NET 2005 - Version 2.0.50727.42

Hi Pradeep,

Currently since we don't have a test environment to repro this problem, I
think it is better for you if one of our PSS support engineers could work
with you directly. This may need you submit a support incident in Microsoft
PSS (Product Support Service). As a MSDN subscriber, you have two free
support incidents.

By the way, if the problem is confirmed by Microsoft PSS as a product
issue, PSS won't charge money. Every MSDN subscriber has two free support
incidents. You could use one of them to contact Microsoft PSS. So you don't
need to pay money yet. Surely if the issue is a product issue, you still
have two free support incidents.

For your reference, I attached steps to contact Microsoft PSS here: You can
contact Microsoft Product Support directly to discuss additional support
options you may have available, by contacting us at 1-(800)936-5800 or by
choosing one of the options listed at

prophone.


Thanks for your understanding!
