setup.exe/msi and license info

Defacto · Post by **Defacto** » Tue 09 Mar 2010 09:34

Hi,

I've got a solution with two projects, one is the program which uses dotconnect for Oracle. According to the license 'wizard' all is ok. The second is a setup project which creates/installs the product. The license information it displays is: Unknown project type. Embed licensing information according to dotConnect for Oracle documentation.

The program runs when not using setup.exe but instead copying everything by hand otherwise some dotconnect license error is displayed. How to get this problem away, the manual has no mention about using setup programs.

tia,
Martin
by the way: devart was added AFTER the setup was already part of the solution.

Setup projects need no license information. Please check that Devart assemblies referenced in your application are included to the installation package and that the build action for the licenses.licx in the main project is "Embedded Resource".

If the problem persists, please specify the exact error message you encountered and the version of dotConnect for Oracle you are using. Also, it would be very helpful if you send us a small test project reproducing the problem. We cannot reproduce it at the moment.

Did that (everything was ok) and added the extra line to licenses.licx and it seems to work ok now.

thanks,
