We are just getyting started with setup and deployment for our app. This
group seems to have some info about setup issues mixed in with framework
setup issues. Can somebody reccomend a good resource, book, newsgroup, msdn
article on setup and deployment. I have gone through the walkthroughs but
they seem very basic and we will quickly need to hit advanced topics such as
upgrading, and SQL changes.

Thank you

http://www.installsite.org lists a couple of resources (books, web sites, etc)
There are also a couple of newsgroups, search for groups with MSI in their
name.

A book that I have just read and now would recommend is "The Definitive
Guide to Windows Installer" by Phil Wilson. It covers all forms of
installations including .NET.

While I have used Windows Installer for deployment before, it was not until
I got this book that it showed me the principles behind how Windows
Installer works - stuff that I ignored before just to get the job down. Now
that I have some installer issues, I needed to better understand what was
going on and so this book has done the trick for me.

Regards,
Neville Lang
