Error creating ThinApp of SPSS, Mathmatica and Matlab

$

0

I am in the process of trying to ThinApp 3 applications and keep getting the same issue each time.  The 3 applications are IBM SPSS version 21, Mathematica 9.0.1 and Matlab 2008b.  We are using ThinApp 4.7.3.891762 on a clean image of both Windows XP and Windows 7.  Once I set up the application on the Thinapp machine and go through the process of getting it ready, I ThinApp it and move it to our server that the holds all of the ThinApp'ed applications.  My ThinApp'ed Matlab creates the following files in the Bin directory:

 

MATLAB R2008b.dat

MATLAB R2008b.exe

MATLAB (1).exe

javacpl (1).exe

javacpl.exe

 

I moved the top 3 files to the ThinApp folder on the server and get the following error as the client boots up (server name was changed in the error below to be generic):

 

Unable to register \\servername.server.edu\thinapp\MATLAB  (1).exe

and

Unable to register \\servername.server.edu\thinapp\MATLAB R2008b.exe

 

Occasionally I get the following error:

 

thinapp.jpg

Ideas?

 

I was successful at creating a ThinApp of Stata 12, so I don't think that my process has a flaw, but I can't figure out why I get this error.  We are running VMWare View Agent version 4.5.0.293049.

 

Thank you for any help that you can provide.


Thinapp 4.6 Office 2007 - There is not enough memory or disk space

$

Hi Guys, Im trying to Thinapp Office 2007 SP2 Enterprise on a Windows 7

64bit VM. Constantly Im getting the message 'There is not enough memory or disk

space to run Word' whenever I try to run any office app on my virtual machines.

 

So far I have tried the obvious, giving the VM 8gig ram and stupid amounts

of disk space, for the primary disk, persistent disk and temp disk.

 

 

 

I have also tried just packaging Word on its own.

 

 

 

I believe this error used to be caused by an issue with the normal.dot

template on machines, if this is the cause this time im not sure how to

troubleshoot it with persistent disks.

 

 

 

The only other package I have thin app'd so far is Firefox which is

obviously a lot smaller but works perfectly.

 

 

 

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated because I would like to trial these apps around the office before the trial period runs out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Regards Andy

Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the pop-up that appears in the bottom right corner of the screen when starting a ThinApp application? I've been searching through the documentation and the internet and I haven't seen anything on this.

QuickBooks 2008 Problem with Terminal Services

$

I have had some success thinstalling QuickBooks Pro 2008 and QuickBooks Premier 2008 with the version 3.386 of the North Start Beta. The application seems to work for me in most situations, but I'm running into a problem executing the application in Terminal Services on Windows Server 2003.

 

When I execute the thinstalled QuickBooks 2008, the application begins to load like it normally would, popping up a "Loading QuickBooks..." windows. It looks like things are progressing and then the window goes away without any messages or warnings.

 

The odd thing is that with a different user account, the application loads just fine, and is usable, on the same server. Neither of the user accounts have administrative priviliges, but both are "Power Users". The application also works for my Administrative logon.

 

Thinking that the problem had to do with ACLs (somewhere), I made the first user account an Administrator on the server as well. This made no difference, and the application quit in the same manner.

 

I did trace the application and the qbw32.exe application had a number of errors (amongst others but there were a lot of these):

Google SketchUp 7 : failed to create process default activation context

$

Hello,

 

I've tried to thinapp Google SketchUp 7. After I built the package I get the "failed to create process default activation context" error , and then "could not load msvcr80.dll ... " or something

ThinApp 4.0.1.2866

captured on a Windows XP SP2 French VM (baseline snapshot)

package run on a Windows XP SP3 French physical box.

vc 2005 runtine is packaged together with Google SketchUp 7.

 

So I tried to run the package on the VM I used to package it after I reset it to its initial snapshot: it works !

I also tried to run the package on a Vista SP1 box: it works.

 

I tried to run it onto another XP SP3 physical box at work: "failed to create process default activation context"

 

So I though, maybe an issue with XP SP3 ?

I applied SP3 to my capture VM: Google SketchUp package still works!

 

Conclusion: uh ... what can I conclude ?

On some boxes, it works, on other it doesn't ... and not an SP3 issue. It seems to be related to already installed components in the baseline setup ?

boxes on which it doesn't work have multiple versions of the C runtime 2005 installed on C:\Windows\WinSxS and C runtime 2005 is also in the package.

I also went into this thread http://communities.vmware.com/message/967041#967041

But I could not find any spaces in manifest files and I'm sure this issue has been corrected since.

 

well ... no more idea

any clues ?

 

thanks

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

We are relatively new to thinapp technology but have had no major issues thus far.

 

 

That is until we have tried to package AutoCAD LT 2008 or DWG Trueview 2010. Has anybody else succesfully packaged these products? If so, could somebody point me in the right direction?

Help with capturing FRAPS screencap app with Thinapp?

$
0
0

 

I am experiencing trouble capturing a screen capture program called FRAPS in Windows VISTA. The program allows capture of screenshots and videos of DirectX or OpenGL applications (e.g., games).

 

 

I went through the capture process in a clean Virtual Machine of Vista. There was no error in the capture progress. The Thinapp .exe that is generated launched fine, but when I press the hotkey (as part of the capture program function), no screencap was saved.

 

 

Is there a problem with ThinApp dealing with client apps that directly relies on DirectX?

 

 

Thinapp + Steam?

$
0
0

 

I am trying to get Steam + Team Fortress 2 to work with Thinapp and I am unable to do so.  I think the main problem might be that steam itself installs Team Fortress 2 before playing and Thinapp is unable to run TF2 in a sandbox. 

 

I have tried the following methods and none of them work:

 

 

1: Prescan, Install Steam, Postscan, Build sandbox, Run sandboxed Steam, Install TF2, Run TF2

 

 

2: Prescan, Install Steam, Run normal Steam, Install TF2, Run TF2, Postscan, Build Sandbox, Run sandboxed Steam+TF2

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone have any experience with Steam and Thinapp? 

 

 

 

 

 

If not, what I would like to do is to run an external application (ie. TF2) in the sandbox of a different application (ie. Steam).  Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

 

 

 

 

 

Teradata SQL Assistant (error)

$

I'm struggling with Teradata SQL Assistant so if anyone has had any success with this I'd appreciate the help.

 

Here is my problem:

 

I install the software in order as required by the ODBC drivers.  In order for this to function correctly it must be installed with the pre-req's in a specific order (from my understanding from http://forums.teradata.com/forum/connectivity/trying-to-set-up-odbc-connection)

 

The error (attached) is in the Teradata ODBC Driver Setup:  "Unknown error occurred in the terasso library."  (very helpful)

 

The locally installed copy functions correctly, however the Thinapp version gives the me same error regardless if I run it from a "clean" PC or a PC with the local copy of Teradata installed.

 

I've run procmon.exe from Sysinternals and tracked down any DLL's that  appear to be missing from the package and included them with no solution.

 

From what I've been reading, this error happens when the pre-req's aren't installed before the ODBC driver and the program itself but this isn't the case.  It almost seems like the ODBC can't see the pre-req's when it runs in the bubble but procmon.exe isn't complaining about not finding any files. 

 

Any thoughts?

Getting error RelaunchUsingCreateProcess::CreateProcess failed when running a ThinApp in Vista

$

0

Hi all,

 

I've ThinApped an application in ThinApp 4.5 on a clean XP SP3 build and it runs perfectly on XP. The problem comes when running it on Vista; I get the error message "RelaunchUsingCreateProcess::CreateProcess failed ". I've tried ThinApping it on Vista and get the same error message running on Vista and a different error message when running on XP. I'm not concerned about it not running on XP as backward compatibility isn't strictly supported but I thought I'd try it just in case. I've also tried ThinApping it in 4.6 but get the same results. The package is linked to two other packages but I don't think that's where the problem lies as the error message refers to the executable of the main package.

 

I haven't been able to find much about the error apart from this post that seems to suggest it's a bug in ThinApp related to memory. The author's solve was to amend the exe of the app in question to address the memory issue. Unfortunately I don't have that luxury.

 

Does anyone know any more about this bug? Is there any way of solving the issue? Is it likely to be addressed in a future release?

 

Any help gratefully received.

 

Thanks!

thinapp 4.6 unable to build msi package

Thinapp 4.6 issue,i cannot undestand why, but i'm unable to create the .msi package. The error comes at the end of the build phase... for any application! no problem with 4.5, but you now i need the Streaming feature... so i'm stuck.

 

the creation of the .exe file as no problem, but the creation of the .msi fail with the error "/bin/whatever.msi cannot find destination path" (and the .msi created is obviously unusable)

 

Any suggestions???
