Clickonce Deployment in Orcas

I tried to create simple Helloworld VSTO Project using Orcas. Now i want to deploy the this project using clickonce. I signed the assembly and published the project to a web location http://localhost/HelloworldSample, it created a Virtual Directory and also when i navigated to the that library in IE it browsed to HelloWorldSample.application but when i click on application to install it , it gives me the following error summary
ERROR SUMMARY
Below is a summary of the errors, details of these errors are listed later in the log.
* Activation of C:\inetpub\wwwroot\HelloWorldSample1\HelloWorldSample.application resulted in exception. Following failure messages were detected:
+ Exception reading manifest from file:///C:/inetpub/wwwroot/HelloWorldSample1/HelloWorldSample.application: the manifest may not be valid or the file could not be opened.
+ Deployment manifest is not semantically valid.
+ Application reference identity must be strongly named.

Does anybody has the idea of installing VSTO application using clickonce. If so then please suggest me the solution of the problem.

Thanks in advance

On using Clickonce deployment in Orcas, you should not see any files with .application extension. VSTO deployment manifests have .vsto extension. In the browser you can go and run http://localhost/HelloWorldSample1/HelloWorldSample1.vsto. This should trigger the installation of the VSTO add-in as long as you already have VSTO Runtime installed on your machine. If you do not have these prerequisites, you have to run setup.exe that installs the pre-requisites before installing your add-in.

Thanks,
