ThinApp - Reading from real OS drive

$
0
0

Hi,

 

Please excuse me if this is a simple question with a simple answer - i'm attempting to tune an application by putting files onto where I'd execute the ThinApp from. - hoping capture a package that when the ThinApp is executed it is able to read from a file that's pre-seeded onto the real OS disk, example below :

 

ThinApp capture is like below -
c:\software\ini files\                     <- empty folder

c:\software\bin\sample.exe

 

Real OS is like below -

c:\software\ini files\sample.ini

 

^ so that when I execute the ThinApp the sample.exe software discovers and parses the sample.ini from the real OS disk, I've tried Merged mode (package and c:\software\ini files\) with no luck.

 

Am i doing something silly here or is this not possible?

VMware vSphere 6 Essentials Kit license issue

Hello,

 

 

I am completely new to all of this and looking around for help. I was trying to do vMotion of my VMs without vMotion using your software version 9.5.I tried in four different ESXi 6.0 servers and I get the same error: "Current vSphere license or ESXi version prohibits execution of the requested operation"

I've checked Software Explainer Video but I don't see the detailed.After that I tried to reinstall the vMware license but doesn't works, the workaround that I have used is: Go to licenses -> Install new license -> And I had installed the same version to re-apply the license. I didn't use a free license of vMware, why it's not working? .I went through many resources but did not find any solution for this issues. Please help me out.

 

 

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you

Can not get any CLSIDs registered

$

Hi

 

I'm trying to thinapp MS Office 2013 on Win7 32bit machine.

I can make a package and it works, except one thing. I need that any software on system can interact with Word and Excel.

I have been searching on net and found that this can be done by registering COM objets (CLSIDs) out of thinapp bubble.

I used SandboxCOMObjects=0 in Package.ini, but that did not helped and CLSIDs are not registered in systems HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID.

I have also using ExternalCOMObjects={000209FF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}, but even this will not register this CLSID on system.

 

Do I understood it right that SandboxCOMObjects=0 would register CLSIDs out of bubble?

 

I'm using Thinapp  5.2.2 on windows7 32bit.

VMWare vs Azure virtual machines

$
0
0

Hello Folk's,

 

I searched the internet but couldnt find an answer. I know that VMWare gives you a true full virtual machine with a assigned NIC card where Azure virtual machine which is connected through Remote Desktop does not do full virtual. Is full virtual the correct terminology used to describe this or am I wrong?

 

The reason this came up is because I have both environments to play with at work and have multiple customers with different vpn setup. I've noticed that if split tunneling disabled, I cannot use Microsoft Azure virtual machine and would have to setup on VMWare unless I use something like TeamViewer to connect into the Azure virtual machine.

 

One of my customer (customer A), blocks all traffic after the VPN is established. This includes RDP and HTTP, the only way for this to work is to install a virtual machine on VMware and use vSphere to connect in.

 

My last question, is it possible to get this one customer A working on Azure? My management team wants the IT shop to be all Microsoft so that means they dont want to use VMware anymore. I've tried using TeamViewer but after connecting to VPN (Cisco Anyconect) the connection to TeamViewer gets disconnected because it runs on 80 HTTP and 443 HTTPS. Any work around on Azure that anyone would like to share? Thanks!

Did anybody successfully thinapp office 2016?

Hi all

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)?

Using 'SetfileSystemIsolation' in VMware ThinApp v5.0.0 1391583

$

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)".


ThinApp Tableau Desktop not working properly

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.

MS Visio and Project 2013 on Windows 10 - License Issue

$

Hi All,

 

I am trying to get Visio and Project 2013 to run on Windows 10. Every time I launch it I receive an error stating "Microsoft Office can't find your license for this application. A repair attempt was unsuccessful or was cancelled. Microsoft Office will now exit".

 

I ThinApp'd it on a clean system, but am launching it on systems that have other Office apps installed locally.

 

I tried to use the TAOffice tool as stated in VMware's KB 2107369, but receive errors when trying to run it. One error states "OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform\OSPPSVC.exe error: The system cannot find the file specified".

 

I tried copying OSPPSVC.exe to the locations on Program Files and Program Files (x86), then it give me an error stating "OSPPSVC.exe is native".

 

I used the TAOffice tool when I ThinApp'd these on Windows 7 and it worked well.

 

Does anyone know how to get this working????

 

Many Thanks!!!

Slow Open Dialog folder listing

Hi.

I have an issue with Open dialog and folder with a large number of subfolders in thinapped application.

Folder has over 12000 subfolders.

Default (not thinapped) application list subfolders in Open Dialog almost instantly.

But thinapped enumerates all subfolders more than 30 seconds (depends on view and filter).

I have replicate this issue on Windows Server 2012 (R2) and Windows 8 (8.1) using Thinapp ver 5.x.x

with applications that use standard Open Dialog (Adobe Acrobat).

Apps that use own Open Dialog opens folder as installed one.

Is this thinapp bug or there is some trick to resolve it?

Registry.rw.tvr error

hello

i use a virtualized program and there is the registry file registry.rw.tvr with 126.521.344 bytes.

so it seems that the size of this file makes problems, bekause it produces always copys of it

with the name damaged....

i looked for the vregtool from net and tried this:

vregtool registry.rw.tvr printstats

as result

unable to load error message for id 13

i also tryed to export, but also the same.

i think the size of the registry is on the limit because it doesent become more on size,

it has the same size since the problems began

and i found no solution for repair the registry or clean it

that the size will reduce.

sure, i can delete it, but its a mail program and there are all the settings and accounts

and i dont want to loose all the accounts and mailprograms, because i tried to

delete the registry and copy than the mails in the new one, but than i can't see the mails.

i hope there is a solution or program wo cleans the registry

regards

Trying to use ThinApp unsuccessfully

Hello,

 

We have been using XenApp for the past several years and our contract has ended with Citrix.  We are looking at using ThinApp to run our application.  I've run through the ThinApp Setup Capture multiple times and have not been able to get anything to work.  I've tried Opera as in the video examples, something simple like notepad, but nothing runs after I've created it.  Errors only.  The app I'm trying to use starts up but it doesn't load any of the config for it so it just closes.  Am I missing something obvious here?

 

I have tried it on Win10 and Win Server 2016.

All applications registered with Thinreg /a.

Trying to setup Content Redirection, but no file types are showing for ThinApp'ed applications.

 

 

"Update file types from Registry" has been tried.

 

 

Any ideas, anyone?

Compatibility Mode

After searching through the forums, I wasn’t able to find a clear answer to my question.

 

I am trying to thinapp an old windows 98 title, which runs on windows XP when Compatibility Mode (windows 98/ windows ME) is used. Then after capturing the image, this setting doesn't thinapp into the EXE.

 

I have tried changing the setting on the EXE after building the package. I also changed the compatibility mode on the file in the capture directory before building the package. Neither worked.

 

Is there any trick to force Compatibility Mode to capture correctly?

 

Thanks!

Hi

 

Just thin apped an engineering project management client side app .A server runs the Database/ hold docs for the app.

 

 

When I try to run the thin app first thing it does is tries to find a licence on the server running the app and gives an error

When you install on a normal pc it installs a service to do this.

 

The error is Service name not available 0x80040154 Class not registered

 

Ive checked the thin app and the service is included in the folder structure so should be ok.

 

Anyone seen a similar error message ?

 


Creating a similar application structure to the PortableApps format

$

0

Hello, I'm new in this forum. I wanted to ask how to create the program a similar structure to the PortableApps format, but without the Source and Other folders. I don't need a lot of .ini files in order to save application settings. It would be much better to convert the existing HKEY_CURRENT_USER.txt, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.txt, HKEY_USERS.txt files into one .reg file. When I launch vregtool.exe, it displays the following message: "Error processing command-line arguments: Excepted .tvr registry file." I don't know which .tvr file is excepted. I found only one .tvr file: Registry.rw.tvr, which was in Capture folder of ThinappDir.  Also, I want to the sandbox to be saved in the Data folder. I tried to modify package.ini settings and re-build the program with build.bat, but it had no effect. When I tried to open the program again, the new sandbox was created automatically named with app name.
I changed the default name of the Sandbox to Data. I also modified SandboxPath. But nothing is working, even after launching build.bat. How to fix everything? Thanks in advance.
