  1. I have a Visual Basic 2008 application that I want to deploy via ClickOnce through my DiscountAsp.Net site. When I publish the publish succeeds. When I try to install from my internet site install page it downloads about 70% and then I get a message Application Validation did not succeed. Unable to continue. If I click on details the error log says in it.

    Following errors were detected during this operation.
    * [4/6/2010 5:41:17 PM] System.Deployment.Application.InvalidDeploymentException (HashValidation)
    - File, 8.jpg, has a different computed hash than specified in manifest.

    This is the exact message I got yesterday. Since I saw it the first time I deleted all the jpg images from my application and added them anew. I still got this message. I then deleted file 8.jpg from my app and published again. The publish always succeeds but when I try to install I get this message even when there is no 8.jpg image now in my app. So I'm thinking the old manifests are somehow getting crossed with the new publish. I need to know how to wipe out all the old application files from my site so I can do a new publish without there be any referencing to old data.

    I put in a support ticket but if someone here helps me solve the problem I' ll let them know in support.
     
  2. I learned how to delete the files myself using Internet Explorer. Problem has been resolved
