So I am trying to deploy a program i created. I am publishing it to a network share drive. When I try to run it from the share drive, it doesnt work. I get the following error:
"Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor"
Here are the details:
Now if i put the setup file, .application, and application files folder on my desktop and run it, it installs just fine. Then when i publish a new version to that shared drive and start my program, it should check for updates before opening. This works, says a new version is available would you like to download it now. If i hit ok I get the same errors as above.
What is causing this issue? How do I resolve it

No transaction information is available.
Now if i put the setup file, .application, and application files folder on my desktop and run it, it installs just fine. Then when i publish a new version to that shared drive and start my program, it should check for updates before opening. This works, says a new version is available would you like to download it now. If i hit ok I get the same errors as above.
What is causing this issue? How do I resolve it
