Hi,

when I try to create a ClickOnce Installation with mage.exe (from WinSDK) the ABCDEF.application file should contain a tag like

but when I look at the .application file it always removes the first 4 characters of the codebase attribute-value....while the .application-filename and .exe.manifest-filename etc. are all fine.
That's the result. Any Application name I tried, the first 4 characters are always missing like below.........

By the way I tried to post this in "Setup and Deployment Projects" Forum, but didn't know how to set it there...its not available in the list.

Thanks and Best Regards

Hi nhale,

Could you please send the project as an attachment of a email to me? This is my email:

Alala666888@hotmail.com. This would help me to test and figure out the root cause of the issue.

Best regards,
Aland Li

Hi nhale,

Thanks for your reply, it does not matter. You said
it is working on several local machines but it is doint sth. like above on the server.

We can check the differences between the local machines and the server, especially the network connections. The issue is also possible related to the security. This link discusses about how to use Mage.exe:

Please search this line to check the security:

You can also publish your program directly using ClickOnce. This some information about ClickOnce:
