# VS2005 (Nov) Non Activesync Deployment @ Wednesday, March 09, 2005 9:21 PM

Situation: Created an x86 CE5 OS with CE 5
Platform builder..
Created a catalog component that includes all 4 files required for VS2005 smartdevice deployment and added that prior build.
ie
Clientshutdown.exe
ConmanClient2.exe
TcpConnectionA.dll
EdbgTL.dll
Places them all in \windows on device.
Also added .bat file to implement the client command: Conmanclient2.exe /transport:tcpconnectiona.dll /property:port=5655 /id:Con
Did device configuration from Menu-Tools-Options

Launched device from CE5 Platform Builder

- Can connect to device through Menu-Tools-Connect Device
- Can connect through ce command window
- Can run client command as above
- But can't deploy app

The directions I followed were from :http://blogs.msdn.com/vsdteam/
January 05, 2005

In the above "Did device config.." was from within VS2005 (Nov), same with last points.

ie I created a CE5 build deployed and launched on x86 device.
Then tried to deploy VS2005 Smartdevice app to it from VS2005 (Nov) not using activesynch. (No USB device on target so can't use activesync, unless I use serial).

Hi David

Can you please verify 1. "conmanclient2.exe ..." launched successfully? (This executable should not return, if launched from the command window).
2. The network connection to the CEPC device is good. (Try ping the IP address of the CEPC device from your computer)
3. please let me know what the error message you get when deployment failed?

Thanks,
Edward

For the question related to deployment error on VPC.OS Chinese 2003 Server.

Can you please verify
1. You've applied all the fixes for Nov. CTP?
2. Are you trying deploy a managed application or a native application? and what is the target device?

Thanks,
Edward

Hi Edward:

What is the error message you get when deployment fails?
Did you see the Deployment target dialog appears after you deploy solution? (After you hit F5 or select deployment solution, there should be a dialog appears so that you can choose the deployment target)
Also can you please verify that the device emulator get a Valid IP address? (On the device emulator choose "Start" --> "Settings" -->"Connections" --> "Network cards" and then choose the network adaptor that the emulator is using.)

Thanks,
Edward

Hi Edward:
1,I get the error message in Chinese,the mean is "the product setup information is attaint.Please contact with technic support."
2,Yes,I see the Deployment Dialog after I hit F5.
3,I use Loopback Adapter,set IP address is "192.168.0.1",and emluator's network card is "NE2000 Compatilble Ethernet Driver",IP address:169.254.95.66.
Thanks,

Hi Ning

I think this is a known issue in our Nov. CTP, which should be fixed in Beta 2 build. But in Nov. CTP you can still use device emulator on a Non-VPC machine without Loopback Adaptor being installed.

Thanks,
Edward
