Hello,
i have a problem with vmware horizon view AGENT 6.2v. I have vMware horizon 6.2v installed. I am using windows 7 32bit OS. I have thinapp IE9 and Oracle Jinitiator 1.3.1.13v. My IE9 with Jinitiator is thinapped with thinapp v5.0. Allways everything worked fine with vMware Horizon agent 6 ; 6.1 ; 6.1.1 but with 6.2 agent i have a problem. I can not install

agent 6.2v into vdi, because it crashes IE9 thinapp. So i have to use older 6.1.1 agent. I have never had to re-thinapp my application, because it allways worked fine unitl now. I have tried to make new thinapp application with newest thinapp v5.1.1, but IE9 with Jinitiator still crashes.

My application does not work with IE10; IE11 because it is very old. It only worked with IE9.

I make these steps to thinapp:
Start thinapp / prescan
Check internet explorer entry points: include an entry point for system-installed Internet explorer
Install full offline IE9 32bit
Restart thinapp pc
Start gpedit.msc Computer configuration / Administrative tamplates / Windows components / Internet Explorer / Security Features Turn off data execution prevention. I choose ENABLE.
Start IE choose Use recommended security ant compatibility settings
Tools / Internet Options / Default homepage  http://zzz.somehomepage.lan:...
Tools / Compatibility view settings using Add button i add  somehomepage.lan adress
Reopen IE and choose turn on intranet settings YES (Are you sure you want to turn on intranet-level security settings?)
IE starts downloading and installing Oracle Jinitiator 1.3.1.13v (i use this version) from server http://zzz.somehomepage.lan:... Jinitiator installation is completed successful.
Postscan
Use seperate .DAT file
Generate MSI package.

When i start thinapp i get error in IE9 webpage field:
res://ieframe.dll/acr_error.htm#somehomepage.lan,http://zzz.somehomepage.lan:...

When i search google i find that i have a problem with IE add-on. But i need this add-on. With every vmware horizon view

agent version it worked ok, but with 6.2 agent it crashes. I am using linked clones vdi. What do i have to do?

1.) is this possible

2.) if so could someone point me in the direction of a good resource?

3.) Specifically I am trying to ThinApp .Net SQL authorization Manager, has anybody gotten this to work?

Hi,

I've tried the new 5.2.2 version that should resolve this trouble but the start up delay seems to be the same as with 5.2.1.

I captured the application both in Win7 and Win10 with same results. So is there any "tricks" to enable a "quick" start up on Win10 with 5.2.2?

Laurent.

To resolve a compatibility issue with document scanners and a specific application in our existing IE8 ThinApp captured from Windows XP x86, VMWare engineers recommended that we capture IE8 from Windows XP x64.

I have the capture process running fine, pre-scan with the VM running IE6, Install IE8, reboot and post-scan.

The browser will run on Windows 10 x64 without issue. It will not run on Windows 7 x64, and crashes with an error message of "Internet Explorer has stopped working". I have tried running the ThinApp log monitor on the Windows 7 machine, but the crash dump is so large it's hard to parse any data out of it.

Hi everyone,

we're experiencing another problem with the thinapp of Firefox; since Mozilla Firefox 50.x, the thinapp the packaged application only shows a white screen, even without the menubar.

We've seen this problem in Firefox versions 50.0.2, 50.1.0, 51.0 and 51.0.1.

Thinapps of Firefox versions 49.0.2 and lower, work fine.

We've tried:
- 32b Firefox
- 64b Firefox
- Thinapp 5.2.2
- Thinapp 5.1.0
- base image (only OS)
- production image
- and all combinations of the above

Our OS is Windows 7 (Enterprise N), SP1, 64b.

As a build option in the package.ini, necessarry since Firefox version 49.x, we added
ExternalDLLs=ucrtbase.dll

We ran LogMonitor but couldn't identify the problem.

Does anyone encounter the same issues?
And if so, and when solved, what was the solution to the problem?

I attached a printscreen of the empty/white firefox screen and the LogMonitor-file.

Does anyone have an idea to the solution?

Thanks

Guys,

I have a virtual layer for Adobe Flash player, with an entry point of Internet Explorer. Outside of this, we have used Thinreg to associate pdf files with a Thinapp'd copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader 7 (Using the allusers switch). What we find is that when trying to open pdf files from the internet, Acrobat Reader loads then presents the error "There was an error opening this document. The File cannot be found". If we save the file and open it works fine.

I'm positive this is a isolation issue somewhere in the Acrobat Reader layer config, but have not been able to track it down. Presumably the issue is the Acorbat layer is not looking outside of itself for the temporary internet folder which contains the pdf IE has cached?

Anyone come across something similar and has a fix?

Matt

Hi everyone,

we're experiencing a problem with the thinapp of Firefox; since Mozilla Firefox 49.0, the thinapp process of the packaged application kills after a couple of seconds after starting the entrypoint. The problem occurs in 49.0 and 49.0.1 (x64).

We ran LogMonitor but couldn't identify the problem.

I copied he most important entries in the trace file into the end of this discussionentry.

Does anyone encounter the same issues?

And if so, and when solved, what was the solution to the problem?

Does anyone have an idea to the solution?

I have IE 6 virtualized and am trying to use it on a Win 7 64 bit OS running IE 8 natively.  The thinapp IE6 package runs fine however the browser redirection feature (thindirect) is not working.  The issue is that the thindirect launcher is not launching the virtual browser.  Thindirect.exe, thindirect.dll, and VirtIE6.txt are all in the correct location.  Thindirect is also showing in add/remove programs, and the thindirect IE helper object is showing as enabled yet it will not redirect my specified websites.  I've already tried the solutions from the VMware KB: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1027375

If I install the same thinapp VirtIE6.msi package on a win XP OS the browser redirection does work correctly, just not on Win 7.

Any ideas???

Hi all,

I captured Autodesk DWG-TrueView 2015 64bit on a Win 7 x64 machine. The build was completed without any error.

However when I run the ThinApp on a Zero-Client with Win 7 x64 and net-Framework 4.5.1 on it the thinapp either won't launch, hangs or quits shortly after the start with the following error:

An Autodesk product failed to send the required value for UPITOKEN.

The error report sent to Autodesk may be incomplete.

In the Autodesk Forum I found the following thread DWG TrueView 2013 crash after loading DWG - Autodesk Community but all the proposed solutions didn't help me.

I installed Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable packages beginning with 2008 up to 2012. Neither doing so before nor after the prescan helped. The same with Net-Framework 4.5 which is in my Master-Image.

Using this recipe  Autodesk DWG TruView 2014 I successfully captured DWG TruView 2014 which is perfectly fine for now. My fear is that in a few weeks time I need the 2015 version because someone from outside sends us a document which can only be opened in the 2015 version.

Anyone successfully captured True View 2015?

Hello everyone,

I've been evaluating the VMWare ThinApp trial and reviewing the documentation but I still need assistance with the following:

1. Could someone help me on how to make file associations? For example, if I made a virtualized application of Adobe Photoshop CS3, how do I get Adobe Photoshop CS3 to launch if I click on a .psd file? Moreover, I would like to have this "built in" and not have to manually assign it after the application has been built.

2. Active registry settings... Currently I have an application that assigns current user registry settings via Active Registry Setup every time a DIFFERENT user logs in to a workstation. The name of the application is called Endnote in which a toolbar is installed in Microsoft Word 2007 for each user that logs in. I already have the registry keys created for this if i were to physically install the application to Program Files... However is there a way to make this work for a virtualized version of Endnote?

Many thanks,

Al

Hello everybody,

end-users are trying to create a hyperlink in their thin-apped Excel (also Word) 2000.  If you create a hyperlink to a xls file (within Excel) then it fails to open.  When you create a hyperlink from Excel to for example word then it opens fine.

Exactly the same problem in Word.  When you create a hyperlink within Word to another Word document, it does nothing.  When we create a link to an excel doc, it works fine.

Can someone simulate this problem ? Or even better... Give a solution for this problem ?

Thanks in advance,

Bjorn

I wanted to ask out there if anybody else experienced issues with the Windows Help Application when launching a help file from within a thinapped application. My problem is when using an application called Pinnacle (which uses the Omnis runtime) I click the help file and if you watch process monitor you see that it attempts to run "C:\Windows\System32\Winhlp32.exe axis.hlp" which is the command to use the Windows Help application to launch its help file. The help file never opens no matter how many times I try. I attempted to try and place the Winhlp32.exe which there is one in C:\windows and C:\windows\system32 in the virtual %SystemSystem% and %SystemRoot% so that when launching winhlp it would use the virtual version instead of the native but instead I now get a "Unable to open main container" error when lanching the help file.

So if anybody else had bad experiences or best practices with dealing with hlp files let me know, I"m thinking this issue could come up in all different kinds of applications.

When I create a ThinApp, I create an msi, and sometimes ThinApp creates the .dat file instead of the .exe. I am a little confused as to which to put into my login script that runs ThinReg. Do I put \\server\path\xxx.dat or \\server\path\xxx.msi ? Or does it matter? Thank you.

I was wondering if anyone has run into this problem. After ThinApp'ing the Cisco Historical Reporting Client application on a vanilla Windows XP virtual machine, I can't get it start on any other systems. It always gives the error:

The key part definitely seems to be related to a "Run As" service. I'm just not sure what this is or where it's at or if it's something that can be virtualized with the app...

I'm running VMware 4.7.3-891762...

Thanks!
Daniel

I created a thinapp of Java 7 Update 45, following the instructions from the ThinApp Blog, and the msi installs fine. I can see it in Programs and Features in Control Panel, and the About Java start menu item appears and opens showing me that it is Java 7 Update 45. Unfortunately, my browsers are not aware that it is installed, the installation is not recognized by "verify your java installation" on the java webpage nor on javatester.org. Can someone point me in the right direction to get this to work? I'm not sure what to check or change. Thank you.

We are using a native install Office 2010 on our desktops.  We have a program that integrates with Office via VSTO.  When we run Outlook the add-in shows as Inactive in Outlook.  When we try to enable it we get the following error.  I have included the vsto file in the thinapp build so you see the vsto file.  Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this working?  I would rather not have to do a native install since our Office Suite has a dozen different add-ins.

I follow these steps:

Step by Step Instructions on How to ThinApp Newer Java Versions | VMware ThinApp Blog - VMware Blogs

I realize these instructions are a few years old.  I do get some issues.

1)  I do not get the option to customize the Java install

2)  Internet Explorer 8 does not show me to under Manage  Add-Ons JQSIEStartDetectorImpl Class  I do disable both SSV Helper Classess.  I leave the Java pluging

3)  When I do a post scan, I uncheck all and check for debug options but iexplore.exe isn't one of them for an entry point

4)  I checked java.exe as my entry point since one is required

5)  I edited the package.ini and the project as stated

6)  I build it

7)  We use a central location on the network for thinapps.  I place it there.

8)  Thru a Virtual Desktop I verify that I am running 6.16

9)  I go to the network location and execute bin\java.exe or %ProgramFilesDir%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe

10)  Open IE and test the version.  Still 6.16

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

If we activate Excel Thinapp from a Native App, it will not be able to find Excel's DLL or Binary then it will show error "cannot find Excel" However, if we use Native Excel, we will not have this problem.
