I have created a simple c# console application with .net framework 2.0 that uses MySql. What steps should I do in order to get the program run on another computer(Windows Server 2008)?
I already have MS .Net framework Clent Profile and MS .Net framework Clent Profile Extended installed.
Should I install .net framework 2.0 Service pack too on the other pc?
Thanks.
You just need .Net Framework 2.0 or later to be installed on the machine.
It would would be better to make an installer.
Make sure you have .Net framework 2.0 installed on the computer. Also make sure you have the .Net dlls required for making connection. If your application is going to use the local machine as MySQL server then, you may have to intall MySQL on the client machine as well, or you can make an installer with MySQL installation included. You can use InnoSetup or you may check out the following thread Deploy MySQL Server + DB with .Net application
Environment - .Net Framework.
Version - Same as one or higher in which you app is targeted.
Why i said no particular version number because what if you app is in 4.0 and you have 2.0 installed?
That's why same version or higher.

I have two applications developed in C# .NET framework 4.6.2 that attacks against an Oracle 10g Database, now planning to upgrade the database to an Oracle 19c. One of the applications is a web application and the other is a desktop application. At this moment I am using Oracle.DataAccess.dll and it is working properly. Will my applications keep working properly after the upgrade or should I recompile my applications with another dll? Or what other configurations required for C# application?
What version of Oracle.DataAccess are you using? The answer depends on it. Are you getting the ODP.NET driver via NuGet?
In theory a 11.2.0.3 client should be able to connect to a 19 database.
Personally, I would ensure that the client driver is at least of version 12.2.
I'm in the process of developing an application that interacts with a MySQL database. Because it interacts with some older software, it has to be built in .NET 3.5.
Another application I'm developing was made from scratch and doesn't talk to anything other than MySQL. Therefore I built it with .NET 4.5.
I have the latest version of the MySQL connector installed on my developing machine to work with .NET 4.5, but 3.5 doesn't like it because the connector requires 4.5.
Here are my questions:
Is it safe to uninstall the newer MySQL connector, since the reference DLL's have already been copied to that project, without breaking my 4.5 project?
Is it a better idea to just run both off of the older connector version?
I'd test this out myself but I'm in a position where I don't have admin rights. I have to bother IT anytime I want to do anything, and they generally like it if I know what I'm doing before I go talk to them.
Thanks all.
In case anyone else stumbles upon the same issue:
You can run both applications off of the old framework, even if one is built with .NET 4.5 it can handle the old MySQL connector framework. I have yet to experience any issues with version compatibility between the .NET 4.5 project and the connector built for 3.5.
You will have to make a new reference to the older framework, however - once the new MySQL connector is uninstalled your applications that rely on it will cease to function until you install another version and reference that one.
I know my Question is little bit basic but have to ask about this:
i have my website build in Visual Studio 2008 with .Net framework 3.5
that site is hosted on my server.
now because of some specific reason i have to install framework 4.0 to the server.
and i just want to know that my site will be okk with it or not.
I mean if i change my framework from 3.5 to 4.0 then is there some changes i should make to my site or that site will run fine as before.
You should also change Framework Version in the application pool of your WebSite.
Basically, remember that Framework version != CLR Version.
In your case, .NET Framework 3.5 = CLR 2.0 + (C# 3.0 | VB9)
.NET Framework 3.5 and 4.0 have different CLR Versions and can be installed side by side on same machine.
That means your site will not see any issues.
There is no problem installing the framework 4 on the server.
Your site should be fine as long as you don't change the target framework on the IIS appPool.
You can have all the frameworks installed on the same machine.
I am about to release my pet project and let other people to use it. It is WinForm application that heavily relies on Win API.
Will people need to download Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile or will they need to have full .NET4 framework?
That depends on what framework version your project targets.
You can check that in the solution properties in Visual Studio but right-clicking on the project and choosing properties.
Since Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile is the framework runtime, that should be all that is needed. But as it says here ---> The Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile redistributable package installs the .NET Framework runtime and associated files that are required to run most client applications.
Then I guess it's a matter of what your using and you would have to test it on a machine that does not have .net 4 already.
What are the requirements for running .net framework targeted application on Windows CE 5?
If I try to start an application that I developed for Windows Mobile 6, I will get the following error.
Cannot find 'Projectname' (or one of
its components) Make sure the path and
filename are correct and that all the
required libraries are available
My app is a simple hello world app. What could cause that such error message?
Is there a way to dertimine which .net compact framework version is running on my system?
You can run cgacutil, which is in the Windows folder. It should give you a version number of the compact framework installed onto the device. It's likely you dont have the correct compact framework installed.
If you dont have cgacutil, its likely that compact framework isnt installed to the device at all. In this case download the latest version of the framework (currently 3.5, available here). The install may take around 7MB of space from your main memory. If storage space is tight, it can be installed to external memory, with some potential consequences as discussed here
The problem is caused by what you're wondering... Which version of compact framework is installed in your system and, most of all, if there is a version of compact framework installed.
I suggest you to download the version corresponding to your developing environment and install it in your device.
By default, Windows Mobile 5 comes with .NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP3 pre-installed.
An application developed for Windows Mobile 6 is at least going to use .NET Compact Framework 2.0 SP2, therefore make sure that it is installed on the Windows Mobile 5 device.
You can download it here, but generally it is a good practice to install the latest version available, as long as it is supported by the device.
