ClickOnce Error: The deployment identity does not match the subscription

Question

I'm using Visual Studio 2008 SP1.

I have a Windows Forms application deployed internally using ClickOnce in a shared folder on the local network.

The test certificate pfx expires in 2035.

I have published the update to the internal shared folder several times.

Note that the project is only set to 'Sign the ClickOnce manifests' and does not sign the assembly.

Now, I again publish a new version of my application.

When users click on their icons to run the application we get this error (it had always updated prior to deploying with the test certificate).

I use regedit to search for this key:

PC UPDATED (uninstall-reinstall, but I want to AVOID it)

AppId file://192.168.13.111/compartida/AdministradorWin.application#AdministradorWin.application, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=4b005ceeffd565b0, processorArchitecture=msil

Version = 1.0.0.30

FileName = Expediente Electrónico

Publisher = GrupoBackup

Folder Name = GrupoBackup

SuiteName= OGF Suite

Changes PC Non updated - Pc updated are:

1.) Suite Name is new value (I set it in properties Publish tab in Visual Studio)

2.) Version

and 3.)

AdministradorWin.app

from file://192.168.13.111/COMPARTIDA/AdministradorWin.application#AdministradorWin.app,

vs

AdministradorWin.application,

from file://192.168.13.111/compartida/AdministradorWin.application#AdministradorWin.application,

If I uninstall and then reinstall the app from scratch it all works. However, I was trying to avoid having to do this.

I get this error when I try to deploy a project that was previously successful.

I re-tried, after deleting all the manifests, but still no joy.

Is there a way to fix this?

In Publish Options -> Manifests

Use application manifest for trust information is UN CHECKED.

Answer 1

Did you change your target CPU from Any CPU to x86?

If you changed this, you will have to reinstall the application.
