Strange problem of thinstalled .net framework

July 19, 2008, 7:16 pm
$

hi, everyone.

    I'm trying ThinApp 4, and I found this strange behaviour of thinstalled .net package.

    Senario A:

1. Build a .net framework 3.0 package, make a cmd.exe entry point from the package.

 

2. Run a .net application from the command line interface of the .net package, which brings the appliction into .net evnvironment. It should work, but it prompts an error.

 

    Senario B as comparative:

1. Build a .net application package, link it to the pre built .net framework package.

 

2. Run this .net application package, it works.

 

 

How come? These two approaches are both supported by thinapp according to thinapp's demos. Why the first approach doesn't work?

 

Note: The application that I'm using for test here is The Regulator, which is a free tool running on .net framework. It can be run directly without installation.

You can get it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/regulator/.

 

 

Thanks.

Reading the client registry directly

Sorry for this question, but I have not had any luck in finding or perhaps understanding the answer through searching the online documentation. 

 

 

I need to look at the client registry directly to determine if there a specific registry entry.  In this case, I need to access the client registry and not the sandbox/thinapp registry. 

 

 

How do I do this from within my application?

 

 

Attached is my Package.ini file

 

 

Thank You!

Hey guys. I am having major problems with SAP ThinApp. When I try to execute the shortcut, I get an error message "This application has failed to start because msvcp71.dll was not found". This DLL file is inside the %SystemSystem% folder. It seems that it is not being loaded at all. I can manually copy this file to system32, but I shouldn't have to do that.

 

Has anyone encounetered any similar DLL problems, and what did you do to resolve. Thanks a lot.

How can i portable Eraser (http://eraser.heidi.ie/) one time with and another time without .NET Framework?

 

I've tested it one time with .NET but the .DAT is over 430MB.

I've tested it another time with .NET and compression, but the .DAT is then over 420MB.

Is it ok?

Thinapp and browsers (Chrome and Firefox), lots of issues

December 3, 2015, 6:46 am

Hello:

 

Are there some guidelines or best practices for capturing Chrome and Firefox?  The reason I am asking is that we are having a bunch of issues with each.  In more detail:

 

Chrome: We thinapped the latest version of Chrome, without any additional plugins, with and without the --no-sandbox option per the KB article here:

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2104409VMware KB: Google Chrome fails when capturing Google Chrome with VMware ThinApp

This one works fine on the initial run, but after it is closed and opened a second time, it will not work properly after that.  It crashes, then upon re-launching it will consume 100% cpu and its window never opens even though the process is running.  If I clear the Thinapp sandbox folder for Chrome, it will open up fine for the first time, but when opening a second time the same issue comes back.

 

Firefox: We thinapped the latest version of Firefox, along with the latest Java 1.8.x, latest Flash, and VMware client integration plugin.  It worked fine for about a week then all of a sudden one day it no longer launches (and we haven't changed anything) with the error: Fatal Application Exit, Unable to Open.

 

I've been looking around and the information is fragmented.  I've seen posts with similar issues in the past but supposedly they were resolved with later versions of the Thinapp setup capture program which we are using the very latest and greatest version (5.1.1).  To my knowledge we are using best practices and using a bare minimum Windows 7 VM to capture with.  Any help would be appreciated, if there have been known working solutions or combinations of versions that work.

 

Thanks in advance.

Virtual Registry allocation problem

May 12, 2008, 4:19 pm

Hello,

 

 

 

 

 

I noticed a problem with the Virtual Registry allocation.

 

 

In some application that use to create some registry values and then destroy them the virtual registry space is never released and execution after execution of the program the virtual registry size is never compacted but it continues to grow.

 

 

I was able to reproduce it.

 

 

Basically if in HKCU you create a subkey (example: myKEY) and under this key you do this:

 

 

 

 

 

for N = 1 to 3000 {

 

 

create string value named myVal[N] and assign some random generated string 

 

 

create string value named myVal[N+1] and assign some random generated string

 

 

create string value named myVal[N+2] and assign some random generated string

 

 

create string value named myVal[N+3] and assign some random generated string

 

 

create string value named myVal[N+4] and assign some random generated string

 

 

delete the string value myVal[N]

 

 

delete the string value myVal[N-1]

 

 

delete the string value myVal[N-2]

 

 

delete the string value myVal[N-3]

 

 

delete the string value myVal[N-4]

 

 

}

 

 

you will see that at the end of the 3000 cycles the registry key myKey is empty but the virtual registry file will be big.

 

 

If you will use the virtual registry tool to display the stats you will see that more than the 80% is not used.

 

 

Running again the 3000 (or more cycles) the registry will continue to grow.

 

 

Can you fix this issue? At least should be nice that when the virtual program terminates (or when it starts) the virtual registry will be compacted (like exporting it and reimporting it again).

 

 

Kind regards,

Hi All, I am new to End user computing product of VMware. I saw license of Thin-app purchased in the inventory but with different variants (thinapp 4 client 200 clients, thinapp 4 client legacy 50 clients, thinapp 4 packager legacy 5 instance, thinapp 4 virtualisation packager3 instance).

 

When I saw thinapp 5 or above it has no variants like this.

 

Can I upgrade the product for thinapp 5 series with 4 version ? Please advise.

SPSS 22 Thinapp very slow

Hello Thinapp community,

 

I'm trying to create a Thinapp package for IBM SPSS 22. The package works but is very slow. Starting the program takes about 3 minutes and working in SPSS is very slow, especially with large files.

 

We use VMWare View desktops with Windows 7, 32 bit, linked clones, non persistent.

When I install SPSS directly on a View desktop it works fine, so the problem seems to be in the Thinapp package.

 

Anyone has any experience with this? Or maybe an idea what the problem may be?

With other Thinapp packages we don't experience this problem.

 

Thanks in advance.

Today I tried to package office 2016 (with KMS). But somehow the licensing made some problems.

I tried the guides of 2013 (Guide) and 2010 (Guide) but either didn't help.

 

Was anyone able to do this successfully (with KMS)?

White screen in thinapp of Firefox, thinapp not working - Firefox version 50 and higher

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

Accessing \javasoft\prefs using Java inside the "bubble"

Thinapp 5.2.2 , Windows 7

 

Hi,

 

we've an mysterious problem with java inside  the bubble. The  application uses HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs in the registry to store it settings.

The problem: If we put the settings inside HKEY_CURRENT_USER.txt , then we had problems accessing it inside  java. Java may fail to write these values or report 0x80000001 .

If we remove all values (not the keys) and put it into an windows .reg file and import it using regedit /s  file.reg inside the bubble, the java app launches without trouble.

The app may also works fine, if  the  registry keys and values are defined outside in the "normal"  Registry and the registry isolation mode is writecopy.

 

We still seeing errors like

 

Aug 15, 2017 5:46:49 PM java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences <init>WARNUNG: Could not create windows registry node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\my app at root 0x80000001. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5

 

But the java app seems to work so far.

Outside Thinapp, we don't see such registry errors. The user have the same rights.
