MSBuild ClickOnce error: "Deployment and application do not have matching security zones"

Below is Microsoft's answer to the thread I posted on their forum. Basically they did support chrome back then, but now there is a plugin for Chrome here that works great.

Hi fbanderson,

I found an article talking about ClickOnce in Firefox.

http://windowsclient.net/wpf/wpf35/wpf-deploying-clickonce-ie-firefox.aspx

.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 offers a component called .NET Framework Assistant 1.0 which handles ClickOnce .applications. If you have installed that component, the dialog appear to you in FireFox should contain a “Run ClickOnce application” button. Do you see that button when you trying to launch the app?

For Google Chrome, we don’t have experience for it. It is a new browser and we lack test on it.

Sincerely,

Kira Qian

I found a solution that I'll be glad to share with you. You can do it with MageUI or with Visual Studio. I am really delighted to use ClickOnce as my deployment now works both with Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox.

MageUI

If you use MageUI, you have to check Include the provider URL in the Manifest and type the associated URL of the web server.

Visual Studio

If you use Microsoft Visual Studio, then on the Publish tab of the project properties, click on the Updates... button, then in the update location, type the URL of the publishing Web Server.
