Can't deploy

[Fuga]

Hi all,

New day, new problem.

I cannot deploy my app to the device. It starts deploying and then stops. The thing is it has worked a few times before.

I think there is a problem with my activesync. For instance, whenever I connect the device to the computer, the computer disconnects from the internet (mobile broadband), probably because the device activates a network connection.

Is there a way to deploy without the active sync?

Create a setup project, copy the resulting file to the device, and run it.

If the device is connected using activesync, there shouldn't be a problem deploying to the device from VS - if you look at the output from the build, it will tell you if it is failing, and why.

Thanks for all your help. I´m making some progress.

Create a setup project, copy the resulting file to the device, and run it.

This is what I did: I created a smart device CAB project, added the vbproj file and built it.

The CAB comes out and I can install it on the device, but the program is not properly installed. Not surprising I guess, but I must confess I have absolutely no idea what I´m doing. I´m used to program in VB just for myself so these deployment issues are new to med.

Thanks.

Fuga.

If you run your code with your device connected to the device does it work?

Are you installing all your dependencies on the device.

There are loads of hints and pointers to articles on deployment if you search these forums.
