- I deploy a new version of my ClickOnce application
- I open my ClickOnce application on the test client machine
- No upgrade is offered
- I close my ClickOnce application and re-open it and now the upgrade is offered
Why do I have to open, close, and re-open in order to upgrade?
ClickOnce? More like click four times!
What’s up with this?
I would check the xml of the YourAppName.application which will be deployed with the rest of the assemblies, etc, onto the deploy server.
Check the minimumRequiredVersion=”1.0.0.0″ and make sure that before you publish you get these properties properly set up (I assume you do).
Then, if you serve this app off of a web server, might wanna check if the server is not serving a cached copy YourAppName.application the first time you try running the app.
Good luck!
