Smart Client Deployment Issue

[InvestecLondonDevelopers]

We have a smart client application comprising of 1 exe and 6 dlls. All of
them have been signed with the same key pair. We have trusted the exe using
the .NET Trust Assembly Wizard but still we get a security exception when
trying to run the exe using the url location. Is there any way to avoid
having to trust each assembly and having to repeat that every time we
rebuild a the assemblies?

Thanks

Hi
I don't have an answer to your question. But since u r
using .NET smart client applications, can you please point
me to some resource that talks about how to use 3rd party
dll?
For ex: I am trying to embed a Janus Explorer Bar control
in the browser and am not able to do it.

Hi,

I had recently the same issues with this type of
deployment.

Please verify first of all the following:
In your IIS Server is the directory where is located your
application. This directory must not be enabled to run
also executables. Just let it as "scripts". Right-click
on the site name using IIS Console and see what you have
there.

Also please have a look at the Micrososft site for
Windows forms: www.windowsforms.net in "Articles". You'll
find plenty of examples, look also on the forums there.
There are very good solutions given there.

If you still have problems, let me know maybe I can help.

All the best,
Alex

You should be able to grant trust to all assemblies with a given strong
name. I haven't used the wizard but I know this is supposed to be possible.
