I am trying to eval this product and still having a lot of issues. Maybe it's something i'm doing wrong but not qutie sure. I have a couple MAJOR problems with a few APPS.
1. Trying to install an accounting app that runs from a server that requires each user to run a workstation setup install in order to run on the workstation. Can i run this type of APP from the THINAPP program? This APP installs a Pervasive DB engine during install. When you launch the program it starts teh pervasive engine before it will let you access the data on the server. I can install the app on a clean machine, start the app and access all the data. I can finish the BUILD process, but when i move the capture to the network share (so that i can run it from a new worstation) i cannot open the application from a clean machine. i get an error message that pertains to the Pervasive DB engine.
2. I have another accounting app that i want to run (Peachtree) and i can run it from some workstations but not others. The first error i get when i try to launch it from Thinapp is "Failed to create process default activation context" I click OK then get another error becasue it can't find a DLL file. I tried changeing to FULL isolation mode with no luck. This vm that i am getting the error on is a brand new install of XP SP3. The other machiens that it does work on are pretty much the same but have been in the system for a while. The app hasn't been installed on either VM. One works and one doesn't. Any thoughts???
3. Another accounting app i'm trying to run from thinapp gives me an error that it can't find the network location when the database is located but yet if i go to my computer is shows up just fine. Any thoughts on this one??
Some APPS work really well (Office and a few others) but i seem to have a lot of issues with these accounting apps adn this is the main reason i want to use Thinapp. Most of the users use all these accounting apps which would make life around here just a bit easier. Any comments or suggestions are weolcome. Thanks again!
