Can I publish a ClickOnce app on Ubuntu?

I created an application and it is published on a Windows server using ClickOnce. Clients go to the URL , can download and run the application.

The client now changes its servers to run Ubuntu. Can I publish a ClickOnce application on a server running Ubuntu?

The version of Ubuntu is 8.10. And I am using Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and C #.

Of course, any file or web server can host the ClickOnce application. However, you will need to configure the correct MIME types on the web server

  • .application => application / x-ms-application
  • .manifest = > application/x-ms-manifest
  • .deploy = > application/octet-stream

.htaccess - (Apache2 Ubuntu)

AddType application/x-ms-application application
AddType application/x-ms-manifest manifest
AddType application/octet-stream deploy
AddType application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument xps
AddType application/xaml+xml xaml
AddType application/x-ms-xbap xbap
AddType application/x-silverlight-app xap

I assume that you are trying to use Mono , in which case:

Is it possible to support ClickOnce on Linux?
Yes, but it still requires a lot of work.

Is ClickOnce the best way to distribute apps / updates?
I'm not sure, but popularity! = Excellence, therefore ...
