Calling on all you VS 2008 experts! Just started using VS2008. Created a windows service to deploy on my remotes to automate some tasks. I created a solution and added a windows service project using v2.0 of the framework. Once done I added a setup and deployment project to the same solution using v2.0 of the framework. All of my remotes already have 1.1 and 2.0 installed. I removed all prerequisite check marks as I do not need a boot strapper. I build the project and it creates myservice. msi. When I double click the msi file on a remote it said I must install .net framework version 3.5. I do not want to have to deploy a 197mb file to all remotes just to install this. How do I get around this. Both projects were created with 2.0 selected and all prerequisites removed. for the time being I created the solution using VS 2005 so I could get it deployed. |
