Deployment fails after saving and retrieving publish files to source control (perforce)












0















Errors messages from running setup.exe are:




Application manifest has either a different computed hash than the one specified or no hash specified at all.



File, [name].exe.manifest, has a different computed hash than specified in manifest.




What is strange is that it works fine until I upload and then retried it from perforce. In other words:




  1. Publish from within visual studio.


  2. Run resulting setup.exe: it's good.


  3. Save contents of publish (setup.exe, [name].application, Application Files folder) to perforce.


  4. Retrieve contents from perforce.


  5. Diff retrieved contents against original contents - everything is identical.


  6. Run setup from retrieved files - fails with errors above.



How can one set of identical files work while another fails?
Obviously I don't understand anything about manifests/deployments/etc... Is there a good intro to this subject somewhere? Any other ideas? I've used the same approach with older versions of VS without any trouble.



thanks
