Hello friend, what's the error you see? Can you post some logs from EventViewer for example, or some print screens?

Thanks

  1. The msix was not clickable.
  2. After installing msixmgrSetup-1.1.0.0-x64 it was clickable.
  3. I run the msix and got this popup message: "You'll need new app to open this ms-appinstaller" MESSAGE I didn't see any logs in event viewer(Windows logs/applications)
  4. Do I need to install any frameworks and more to run it , if yes give links please?
  5. The msix app is running in window 10.

MagicAndre1981 commented 2 years ago

ok, you miss the VC++ Desktop framework dependency .

Install the x86 and x64 appx files with Add-AppxPackage

danies8 commented 2 years ago

I tried to install the x86 version without success: image

MagicAndre1981 commented 2 years ago

and what happens with x64 version? Same error?

danies8 commented 2 years ago

Same: image

danies8 commented 2 years ago

I fixed the command to Add-AppxPackage -Path ".\Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx" and it work same for x86. But run maui msix i still got error: image

danies8 commented 2 years ago

Any solutions ? I tried the same process on other server 2019 same results!!! Do I need specials installation for MAUI msix on server 2019 or its like on window 10 ?

update VS to 17.3 Preview 4 and try to create an unpacked app that has everything included to run.

danies8 commented 2 years ago
  1. I updated my VS to 17.3 Preview 4.
  2. Does these the two commands i need to create ? I added the diffrerence in bold. Without bold is what i do in msix for window 10. msbuild /t:restore AutomationClient.MAUI.csproj msbuild /t:Publish AutomationClient.MAUI.csproj /p:TargetFramework=net6.0-windows10.0.19041.0 /p:configuration=release /p:GenerateAppxPackageOnBuild=true /p:AppxPackageSigningEnabled=true /p:PackageCertificateThumbprint="c01ba45666762f3615cf6813aeb4dc4b1919541d" /p:PublishSingleFile=true /p:WindowsPackageType=None /p:WindowsAppSDKSelfContained=true /p:SelfContained=true
MagicAndre1981 commented 2 years ago

try this second command and look if this works. Server is not officially supported by MAUI, so try it and look what happens.

I succeeded to create EXE && it run both on window 10 && server 2019 as exe. The fix is /p:GenerateAppxPackageOnBuild=false Thanks

danies8 commented 2 years ago

Currently NET runtime +NET Framework 3.5 + VCLibs are installed , are they needed when I have exe in server 2019?
