Howdy,
I am deploying a ClickOnce application through IIS. I want to install the prerequisites (.NET Framework, Crystal Reports, Installer 3.1) from one centralized location for all ClickOnce applications.
In the project properties in the Publish tab, I click on the Prerequisites button. I select the prerequisites I want, and I click "Download prerequisites from the following location:" and I enter the URL to my prerequisites web share. Is this all I need to do? I notice that when I actually publish my application, the setup files get created in the same publish folder as the rest of my application. Is this normal? I just keep deleting them, because I don't want to store them multiple times on the same web server.
Any reassurance that I am doing this the right way out there?
