Even though you are not using a .sdf file
The Cause
Somewhere along the way you did have a .sdf file in the app_data folder, and the Click Once deploy manifest listed it. The manifest looks for it and does not find it, and would not find it anyway due to .sdf not being an accepted mime type on your server.
The Solution
Make sure that there are no .sdf files in the app_data folder, do a grep for any .sdf files, and then delete the web directories containing the files, the republish via click once.
