Visual Studio 2005 Profesional:
I am using Windows Installer to create a Setup.msi.
I want users to be able to download a 30 day free trial of my Windows app from my website.
The download worked fine on my development computer.
When I tried it from a friend's computer,
with my download button linked to my Setup.msi file, it tried to get the prerequisits from Microsoft. This is WAY too complicated. I want it to be as simple as possible.
In my Setup properties,
I specified "download prerequisites from the same location as my application"!
I entered my website in the installation URL.
Why did it go to Microsoft instead of downloading it from my website?
I have 3 prerequisites: SqlExpress, dotnetfx and WindowsInstaller3_1.
How do I get the prerequisites to install from my Setup1.msi?
I see subdirectories for those 3 prerequistes in my Setup1\Release folder and on my website.
