We're in the process of testing out ThinApp as a potential solutions, but i'm running into a few issues. I've used SVS (Symantec/Altiris) for virtualization before, but am new to ThinApp.
First, when it does the pre-scan, I always get a warning like this:
"RegQueryInfoKey failed for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib\009"
I can continue through it...but i'd like to know why I get that warning. There are no permission restrictions on that key, and i'm logged in as a domain administrator to a clean box.
Second, after my first 2 attempts at capturing an application I get an error message:
"Unable to write to C:\Program Files (x86)\VMWare\VMWare ThinApp\Captures..................<very, very, very long path here>.........##Attributes.ini"
So, the whole thing fails. Is this due to the path being extremely long? Is there a limitation to file name paths? It is a Microsoft application, so no shocker that referencing a local cache for VMWare and the Microsoft directory on top would get extremely long...but that seems like a very bad limitation.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!
