We recently started using VMWares Thinapp v 4.0.2866 to package applications for our labs and have successfully packaged several apps. Could someone clearify the procedure for using the Appsync Utility to update applications, the documentation on this is not to clear. To test, this is what I have done:
NOTE: I accepted all the defaults during the capture process.
I captured Adobe Reader 8.1.4 and stored the whole folder (which includes the Package.ini, bin folder etc...) on a network share
I created a folder on the root C:\ of the target machine called "Thinapps"
I copied the .exe to the Thinapps folder I created on the target machine, I also copied the AppSync and Thinreg utility (not sure if I needed to???) to this folder
I used Thinreg to register the application, the Icon was placed on the desktop and the application opened and worked fine.
Now, I want to update the application to Adobe Reader 9.1.
How do I do this?
The Sandbox and Inventory Name for 8.1.4 is Adobe Reader 8.1.4, the Sandbox and Inventory Name for 9.1 is Adobe AIR. Does this make a difference? If so, what do I need to do?
I know in the package.ini file under AppSync Parameters the semi colon in front of AppSyncUrl needs to be remove to enable Appsync, but I'm not sure what to do after that.
I have attached a copy of the Adobe Reader 8.1.4 package.ini file for review.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks, Mary
