SolidWorks 2009 Portable

Hi,

 

I'd like to create this software CAD as portable.

 

 

At the end of the ThinApp wizard, ThinApp pre-select some entry points of my application.

 

 

How can I decide if I need to select other entry points ?

 

 

Usually I don't change anything, and when I test this application, an error occur '....impossible to load c:\Program files\SolidWorks Corp\SolidWorks\SolidWorks.exe....'

 

 

This software need some prerequisites, as Microsoft Search, Microsoft .net and other.

 

 

I red that I need to capture any prerequisites singularly.

 

 

I need to lunch this before my CAD portable or I can integrate together ?

 

 

Some suggestions ?

 

 

 

 

 

Regards,

 

 

Alessandro

How to make ThinApp work with USB devices such as webcam?

I am trying to thinstall/thinapp Skype (to be run in Vista Ultimate) which can use a webcam. In my case, I have a Microsoft Lifecam.

 

 

I tried the following. I installed the Lifecam software and used ThinApp to capture the software. The software include a camera app to access the camera and likely some drivers for the camera.

 

 

I then installed Skype and captured it as well as a separate exe using ThinApp. I enabled the plugins function and then tried to run Skype with the LIfecam software as plugins.

 

 

This does not work. Neither the Skype and the Lifecam software can see my webcam. According to Vista device manager, the Lifecam is recognized and working properly.

 

 

I had previously thinstalled Windows Live Messenger. That thinstalled exe can access the webcam without any problem.

 

 

How do I fix this?

Hi,

we deploy a ThinApp with Word 2003. When a user is forced to update to "Creator Update" the ThinApp does not work anymore.

I think there would be the need of a fix from VMware, ist there something in the near timeline?

I was trying to Thinapp tableau desktop, I tried with Thinapp version 4.6 and 4.7 but it was giving some error, so I downloaded version 5.1 of Thinapp.

this time I was able to capture tableau properly. I also added license key for tableau before capturing the package but when I launched this Thinapp package to any other machine it still ask for activation.

In short it is not capturing license information of tableau.

 

Have somebody try to Thinapp tableau yet? If yes then any help would be appreciated.

Office 2013 - Outlook previewer not working

Wonder if anyone can help, bit of a weird one, I have successfully thinapped Office 2013 and it appears to be working fine except for one thing, the previewer in Outlook will not work, when you click on an attachment to preview it either comes up with "unable to load dll oart.dll ... access denied" or the following message "This file can't be previewed because ofan error in the Microsoft Word previewer", the access denied message has me wondering but that dll is present in the captured package in the Office15 folder.


Please see details of the thinapp:


- Office Standard 2013 32bit captured on Windows 7 vanilla 32bit, straight capture, no plugins etc

- Steaming to Window 7 64bit (not sure if that is an issue? everything I've read said it should be fine streaming Office 32bit to Windows 7 64bit)

- Using ThinApp 5.1.0

- Outlook previewer is working fine locally on the thinapp machine

- I'm only testing the previewer on other Office documents (word, excel etc)


This is a minor issue but our users will be expecting the previewer to be working.


Any ideas?

I'm using some simple applications packaged with Thinapp 5.0.  When a thinapped V5 app is running and I eject a removable disk such as usb flash disk, the drive letter remain assigned.

When a removable disk is re-inserted, the next available letter will be assigned..

 

The only way to reclaimed the "ghost" driver letters is to close any thinapped application..

 

Any clues?

Just a quick reminder, that ThinApp 4.5 got released.  Here are a few quick links:

 

Download: http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/desktop_downloads/vmware_thinapp/4_5

 

Release Notes: http://www.vmware.com/support/thinapp4/doc/releasenotes_thinapp45.html

What's New

 

The 4.5 release adds the following features to improve usability, performance, and updates:

 

     

  • Support for Windows Server 2008 R2, 32-bit Windows 7, and 64-bit Windows 7 operating systems.

     

  • ThinApp version updates to incorporate the latest features or support enhancements without rebuilding packages. The relink.exe utility updates existing packages.

     

  • Compression of MSI packages that uses the MSICompressionType parameter to improve the ThinApp SDK performance.

     

  • Reduced memory consumption and page file usage to improve startup performance. The OptimizeFor parameter works with the CompressionType parameter to customize memory performance and startup time.

     

  • Anonymous collection of statistics to expand the support for applications. You can use the Setup Capture wizard or the QualityReportingEnabled parameter to help VMware build support for applications and help you migrate more native applications to a virtual environment.

     

  • Loading of DLL files as virtual DLL files without using API functions. The ForcedVirtualLoadPaths parameter loads external system DLL files that depend on DLL files inside the package.

     

  • Product interface updates to improve usability and link to video and documentation information. German and Japanese versions of the ThinApp User's Guide are available.

Thinapp 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 crashes with application - Thinapp 5.0 works fine

I recently tried to package a medical software package called MediConnect 2.8.

 

The Thinapp package was made with Thinapp 5.2.1.

When starting the package after the build, the application crashed with the following error:

I tried to redo the package using different settings, but to no avail.

Then I rebuild the package using the older Thinapp 5.0 and the package works fine.

 

I have had the same problem with Thinapp 5.2.1 in the past with the Microsoft Dynamics 2012 sofware.

Would not work at all and crashes at startup.

 


Today, I tried the same with the new Thinapp 5.2.2 but infortunately, the result is the same.


Does anyone have any idea why the current versions of Thinapp seem to be less stable and trouble-free than the previous ones?

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.

Unable to Send Email As Attachment From Adobe Reader 10.1

Adobe Reader 10.1.1 (Full Install)

When I open a PDF, and go to Tools - Send Files, Attach to Email (with Outlook open), when I click attach it says Launching email application and eventually comes back with the error "The file Z:\users\username\appdata\local\Microsoft\Outlook\username.ost cannot be opened.".  These are dedicated desktop pools and Z: is where the persistent disk is stored.

 

I have tried everything on the forums I can find, I have compared permissions on that folder with that of my regular desktop (which works fine) and they all match.  I even rebuilt the ThinApp from scratch with the latest version of ThinApp.  I am out of ideas.

 

I have attached the package.ini file in case that helps anyone.

Using 'SetfileSystemIsolation' in VMware ThinApp v5.0.0 1391583

February 19, 2014, 6:48 pm

Hi all,

Seems I've found a bug with scripting API. In two words, function "SetfileSystemIsolation" has no effect at all. For example, call "SetfileSystemIsolation "C:\Merge", 2" with line "DirectoryIsolationMode=WriteCopy" in "Package.ini" gives default isolation (WriteCopy) directory "C:\Merge". All changes will be sandboxed. I've tested this for VMware ThinApp v5.0.0 1391583 and VMware ThinApp v4.7.3 891762. Result is the same. But it works as should in VMware ThinApp 4.5.0 238809. Please, someone test and confirm.

 

P. S. Also there is error in "thinapp50_manual.pdf" on page 83, function "SetfileSystemIsolation" referenced as "Setfile systemIsolation(Directory, IsolationMode)".

Get the correct local IP address from java applet

Hello all, I have Problem go through it!

 

I would like to determine the local IP address from my java applet. The problem is when there are several IP adresses on the same machine, which has LAN and internet connections (palm, VMWare...).

 

Here is my test :

 

public static void main(String[] args) {   try {   String hostName = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();   System.out.println("HostName = " + hostName);   System.out.println("HostAddressLocal = " +   InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress());   InetAddress[] inetAddresses = InetAddress.getAllByName(hostName);   for (InetAddress inetAddress : inetAddresses) {   System.out.println("hostAddress = " + inetAddress.getHostAddress());   }   } catch (Exception e) {  e.printStackTrace();   }   }

The result is :

 

  HostName = xxxx    HostAddressLocal = xx.xx.xx.xx    hostAddress = 10.10.11.51    hostAddress = 192.168.23.1    hostAddress = 192.168.106.1

 

where xx.xx.xx.xx isn't the correct address. The correct is 10.10.11.51.

 

EDIT in response to jarnbjo :

 

Your Crystal Report ball say the truth. You've understand my problem. The client can connect through a proxy so I can not use your first point. If I execute this code below on my computer :

 

Socket s = new Socket("www.w3c.org", 80);    InetAddress ip = s.getLocalAddress();    System.out.println("Internet IP = " + ip.toString());    s.close();

 

I have this result :

    >> Internet IP = /127.0.0.1

And not 10.10.11.51

 

Thanks

ThinApp 4.6 and SQL Express 2005 SP3

Has anyone been successful at ThinApping SQL Express 2005 SP3? I have tried the instructions for SP2 -&gt; http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1006992

 

 

This doesn't seem to work with SP3.

 

 

Doing a default install and allowing the services to start with the default network service account seems to work on XP but not Win7. Doing a custom install with a local user account does not seem to work at all.

 

 

 

My build machine is a fresh, non-patched Windows XP SP 3 system. The .Net Framework 3.5SP1 is installed as part of the project.
