install - vsto installer - silent mode problem -


Background: I am creating a VSTO 4.0 addin for Outlook 2007 that allows users to view their mail Items in the CRM database.

Requirements: The instance should be silent without user knowledge. This installer will be in a custom action in the class or run with a shell command.

Problem: Installation occurs in silent mode but does not actually install add-in. The installation is successfully completed in non-silent mode (but the user gets a prompt )

Security: Manifestations are signed with an enterprise-trusted certificate (* .pfx)

Error log: Message for silent installation: Exception: Customized in this application The functionality will not work because it has not been granted trust. The certificate used to sign the deployment manifest is unknown, and the customization (FulcrumAddin) is not included in the list, please contact your administrator for further assistance.

Last question: What are the requirements for silence installation. What is the included list (from: error log) and how it helps.

Ok very easy friend, you have to add a custom enclasticist project to your solution for VSTO 3.0 View link I think (not started at 4.0) is similar to 4.0

You will need to add AddionList output to the setup project and there are some steps to add RSAKey to the primary projects. VSTO appears in the installer classes code, Copy that you add the output to be involved in "every state" in the setup project, rollback, uninstall and more. This link reads that it makes more sense than me. Also keep in mind that if you decide to deploy through MSI instead of clicking, and you are set up in program files (for example, using SCCM or similar mechanism By doing so) you automatically provide complete trust. This may be another way around your problem ...
