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

$
0
0

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.


Microsoft Project 2010 & Visio

A few bloggers have claimed to thinapp Visio Pro & Project Pro 2010. I have yet to see this work. We are running Office 2010 natively installed. The KB article vmware has is for Office 2010. Can anyone clarify these directions who has completed these packages on Win 7 64 bit? Microsoft has it working with App-V. 

Possible to disable ThinApp pop up upon launch?

Not sure if this is doable but I have followed a few guides online to no avail. to get the popup disabled upon launching ThinApps and MSI's.  Any one here have any luck with this?

dll - the specified module could not be found

$

Hi,

 

Wondering if anyone can help, having issues ThinApping an application which uses C++ runtime dll's. The application in question is a calibration tester for gas detectors and isn't available for public use. The application launches fine but when you choose to edit a calibration file, which is literally just a file, you click edit and Windows Explorer launches to browse for the file, you can choose the file and then following error pops up:

 

Unable to load mfc80.dll - The specified module could be found

 

I can see the above dll within the winsxs folder so it exists, I have also tried copying the dll file to the %systemsystem% folder, when copied to the %systemsystem% folder the above error disappears but then a new error pops up:

 

Runtime Error!

R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.

 

And at this point I'm stuck. I have read up a bit about dll's not being loaded/found and implemented some of the suggestions on this forum including:

 

- ThinApping the application with C++ Redistributable Package 2005 (2005 appears to the C++ package with this specific dll in it)

- Adding ExternalDLLs=mfc80.dll to the package.ini

- Copied all the dll's (not just the one dll which appears to be causing me problems) within the winsxs to the relevant %systemsystem% and %systemsystem(x64)% folders

 

ThinApp was done on Windows 7 x64 capture machine, using ThinApp 5.2.1 and target VDI desktop is also Windows 7 x64.

 

I can run the ThinApped application fine from various other Windows 7 desktops including the machine it was captured on and my own personal laptop, appears to be an issue with target VDI desktop we wish to deploy to.

 

Anyone else had any experience of this? Any suggestions?

Hello,

 

I'm new to this forum en fairly new to ThinApp and I have a question. I've built a ThinApp for Anaconda3 (Python 3.6.3 -64bit) and I can start the program but the Python Kernel gives an error:

The correct path should be: \\VFILER\HOME$:\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\thinstall\Python 3.6.3 (Anaconda3 5.0.1 64-bit)\%AppData%\jupyter\runtime

 

Instead of '\\\\VFILER\\HOME$\\USERNAME\\AppData\\Roaming\\jupyter\\runtime\\

 

Am I doing something wrong or can I change the kernel path?

How to ThinApp Java 7 version 55

Running Windows 7 32 Bit

Running ThinApp Setup Capture 4.6.2-467908

 

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!

Whenever I try to open a portable program created with Thinapp I get an error message like :" ThinApp has encountered an unexpected error.Click Abort to close the application, Retry to debug,or Continue to ignore the error. Support info:PID=5408, Runtime2.cpp@841".

You can not go on and have to close the program.

What can I do to get it working again ?

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

I try to thinapp Adobe Acrobat DC and faced with problem.

Acrobat has little executable AcroCEF.exe (looks like this is Chrome 45).

This exe crashes on Acrobat start (see attach). I have replace it with selfmade

but original AcroCEF.exe is required for Fill & Sign tool.

For thinapp I used Thinapp ver. 5.0, 5.1, 5.1.1, 5.2.


Has anyone thinapp Acrobat DC and how to resolve AcroCEF.exe problem?

Help on opening URL in packaged IE

$

Hello All

 

 

This is my first time using ThinApp , i am doing a proof of concept on usage of thinapp, We have a application which uses acrobat pro and jre 1.5 . I have packaged both and made an entry point as IE and then build the package and move the exe from bin folder to users desktop.

 

 

Everything works fine for most of the functions but there is a functionality where this application sends workflow notification in users outlook inbox with the url to the app ,the issue here is thay the url opens the default IE and then applicaton fails due to jre mismatch issues 

 

 

I tried searching for some way to do this in HTML , some how specify URL to be opened in a specific application like the packaged IE in my  case but i am unable to find any leads.

 

 

The non working url looks like this

 

 

"&lt;a href= "F:\thinapp\iexplore.exe"  "http://fcgdmfdappdev01:8080/rdms/component/drl?objectId=0913b6e980010902&format=pdf" target='_blank'&gt; Test this Workflow &lt;/a&gt;"

 

 

Any ideas??
