wyBuild basic question

I currently have a .net C# desktop app written using Visual Studio 2008. It is a huge pain to push out new versions patches and updates with an installed base of over 5000 customers. I would love to use wyBuild and wyUpdate but I have no clue what kind of server you would need to deliver the updates. Can someone cover this ? 💡

Any server that supports HTTP or HTTPS. Which is just about every server in existence. So, use the same server as where your website is hosted.

Thanks, what exactly is placed on the server ? I am the administrator of a Secure Transport server. Currently we have created an anonymous login with no password to distribute the MSI. Does that work for wyBuild ? What is placed on the server ?

The Step-by-step walkthrough covers all of this. Specifically, step 3E covers where you can put the update files (HTTP or HTTPS or FTP or FILE:///).

So, yes, you can put the update files on an FTP server.

What is placed on the server ?

Update files. They are patches for your app.

Thanks Sam !
