I made an wpf application on .Net Framework 4.0. It is using entity framework and SQL server 2012 as a database.
Now I want to deploy this machine on another computer. What needs to be installed on that machine. I am assuming that fresh OS has been installed on target machine.
I’ve already deployed the same application with install shield, here’s the list of all needed deps (downloadable for free from microsoft website) from WinXP SP2 to Win8 and works on both x84 | x64
The no need for entity Framework its already in .netFX 4.0
you can also specify the sqlserver configuration parameters using
SQLEXPR_x86_ENU /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQLENGINE /INSTANCENAME=SQLEXPRESS /SQLSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL Service" /SQLSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Automatic /BROWSERSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Automatic /TCPENABLED=1 /NPENABLED=1 /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN
