ClickOnce Installer doesn‘t work anymore

description

It seems that the ClickOnce Installer doesn’t work anymore. When I press the download button on the site “http://wafstopwatch.codeplex.com“ then nothing happens. A few months ago the download button and the ClickOnce deployment worked without any issues.

That's true! Same problem for: http://transformtool.codeplex.com/

Does not work in IE9 (WIN7 Ultimate). Latest FF downloads the .application file, which I then can open manually to install the app. This makes it very difficult for new users to get going!

Thanks for reporting this. We are aware of the problem and are working on a fix.

This has been fixed in today's deployment.

Hi, thanks for the feedback!

I just tried it again, unfortunately it still doesn't work from my project's front page:

http://transformtool.codeplex.com

If I go to "Releases", I get the direct download link to the .application file, which works ok:
http://transformtool.codeplex.com/downloads/get/clickOnce/TransformTool.application

Same setup, IE9 on WIN7. Was the fix for the link on the front page for the "preferred" release, or was it for the "Releases" page?

We pushed out a fix for the downloads page, and evidently it did not fix the download button on the project home page. We'll have it fixed in this week's deployment.
