Hi,
With Powershell you can deploy App-V packages, you can or cannot use the configuration xml file https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj713433.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
I wonder how SCCM deploys this by default (there is a deploymentconfig and userconfig but are they published by default too)?
Please advise.

weird problem - trying to solve it now since two days already:
I created a application "Silverlight" with command line: powershell.exe "& '.\setup.ps1'"
and enabled it to allow use in Install Application task sequence also.
I created a task sequence to setup windows 7 enterprise x86 and install some apps, i.e. .net 4, powershell 3.0 and some adobe products, then a reboot and then install the Silverlight application with the Install Application step(no MDT used)
However the Silverlight does then always fail immediately when launched.
I have following code in powershell script and I get no ExitCode back, $RetVal is just empty after run
$RetVal = 99
$process = Start-Process -FilePath "Silverlight51.exe" -ArgumentList "/q" -PassThru -Wait -WorkingDirectory "$WorkDir"
$RetVal = $process.ExitCode
very strange - when I then open directly with F8 a dos command window and run same script with psexec -s parameter, everything runs fine and I get the required ExitCode
Is there any difference how SCCM tries to install apps ?
appreciate very much any help or suggestion !!
Hello Dears,
I want to deploy MS Visio and Project via SCCM, and allow users to request approval for the installation of this software. This works great, however, I want them to be able to install this software once on their primary machine. Now what happens is that once I approve the application, they can install it to their primary machine, lab machine and they can even login to their colleagues machine and help them install this software. Since this is licensed based purchase software, I want to make sure that the right user receives this product. Can someone advise if there is a solution for this problem?
Thank you all in advance!

Hello,
valid data is not coming out from software metering default reports, We've enabled software metering this year at 27th February for AutoCad application.
I do understand that Data report backs to server after every 7 days (by default) and there are many users who opens AutoCad application regularly but their information is not coming on Default Reports!! Some thing which doesn't make sense, am i missing anything here or what went wrong... Not sure?
Is there any other customize way (Like any SQL query) we can get the Data.
Hi,
Currently, we have SCCM 2012 R2 CU4, according to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Center_Configuration_Manager I need to upgrade to SP2, to have the latest version, correct (don't get it why on the same date there is SP1 as well as SP2)?
So what do I do: downoad full ISO with SP2 from volume license center and upgrade to SP2 (don't see any downloadable SP2)?
Please advise.

Hi,
When I deploy Office 2013 via App-V it is taking a while, also is showing “installing” in software center but already in the startmenu. So what worries me is that users would start the package whereas it is still installing (user probably don't keep looking in software center but just see Office and start using it). Or doesn’t that matter?
Please advise.

Hi,
I have this Office 2013 App-V application with Lync for business in it. I need to uninstall Lync 2010 which is on the Windows 7 system so Skype for business becomes the primary messaging tool. How do I do this? I can target an uninstall
of the Lync 2010 client and set a dependency to the App-V package Office 2013, but t I guess that won’t work?
Please advise howto do this.

in my test env ive built out approx 30 servers all on the same vlan, so no firewall issues exist.
ive built a test application, using Xtail to install on all of the servers, to prove application deployment is working.
6 days after configuring the application and assigning it to the collection as required, only 6 of the collection have taken the application and only one of those 6 gas reported back a successful install.
I know SMS used to be slow to update, but i should be expecting better than that, surely?
anyone know where on the client i can look for a log file that would show me the server checking in with SCCM and asking if any apps are waiting to be installed?
This is a new SCCM 2012 server and we have moved all clients to the new server and have deployed SCEP. We now want to deploy packages and have not been able to send anything. In the deployement status - I check various logs and have not been able to find what the issue is. Any help would be appriecated.
Hi,
I am having an application which I want to distribute to DPs.
The problem is, if i distibute the content to a DP the wizzard says Ok at the end.
If I have a look to the register "Conntent Locations" the Dp is not appearing.
Also if I check the Content Status 0 Targets are shown.
Please let me know if you need more information and in which log i can find it
Hi,
To start with, let me explain how my App-V applications setup is, by example, f.e. Z-Zip.
Application naming:
--------------------------
Application 7-Zip 4.65 (1.0)
*Deployment types:
7-Zip 4.65 – W7 ‘requirement Windows 7
7-Zip 4.65 – WK8R2 ‘requirement Windows 2008 R2
Application 7-Zip 9.20 (1.0)
*Deployment types: ... ‘same as above => supersedence on “7-Zip 4.65 (1.0)”
Application 7-Zip 9.20 (2.0)
*Deployment types: ... ‘same as above => supersedence on “7-Zip 9.20 (1.0)”
User groups:
------------------
7-Zip-Install (query AD-group with users who should have 7-Zip) => install deploy of 7-Zip
7-Zip-Uninstall (query users who have 7-Zip installed, based upon a query on “7-Zip 4.65 (1.0”) minus collection “Z-Zip-Install”) => uninstall deploy of 7-Zip
Now this setup complicates the User group uninstall collection, since it contains the query of the application AND version (7-Zip 4.65 (1.0)). Iow, each time a new version comes, I’d need to change the uninstall query.
---
Then I read this: https://softomaticca.wordpress.com/2014/07/18/deploy-a-revised-appv-package-in-a-snap-using-configmgr12-sccm2012/which makes me want to rethink my setup. But since I do have a lot of applications, I want to have the design right in one go.
So my question is: what’s the most flexible setup?
----------------------------------------------------------------
*Deploying applications without any version number, f.e. 7-Zip, then deployment types “7-Zip 4.65 (1.0)”,
“7-Zip 9.20 (1.0)”, “7-Zip 9.20 (2.0)”, giving the latest version the highest priority
But in this setup the enduser won’t see the new version number (only 7-Zip)
*Deploying, as the article mentions, f.e. 7-Zip 9.20, then deployment types “7-Zip 9.20 (1.0) – W7”, “7-Zip 9.20 (2.0) – W7” and giving version 2.0 a higher priority?
Using supersedence on application level for major updates (f.e. 4.65, 9.20 etc)
This looks the best option but then, each time a new version is released, I need to adapt my query for the uninstall collection.
Please advise.

Hi Folks,
I'm in a situation where historically an application existed only as a 32bit application. As such the existing application has 1x deployment type which has a requirement of either 32bit or 64bit. The developer has now made an x64 version available.
Ideally the outcome we want is that:
The issue is that the supercedence relationship between deployment types are only 1:1, so this isn't possible at a glance.
Is there a best practice or Microsoft 'supported/sanctioned' way of dealing with this scenario?
Thanks.
Expert,
We have HPCA Environment and clients are already deployed applications (MSI/EXE/VBS) to target clients . We are planning to migrate to SCCM 2012 R2 replacing HPCA. Once we deploy the SCCM 2012 R2, clients are getting installed SCCM Software Center. Is the installed applications (Deployed via HPCA) are report to SCCM Software Center? or Can we see the installed application in SCCM Software Center as installed application tab. Please advice
Thanks

Hello All:
I am having a major issue deploying applications through task sequence. The errors in the smsts.log are useless and every single one of my 7 applications I have assigned to the task sequence fail with the same error. Here is a snippet...

The OS deploys, the Config Mgr client deploys, everything else appears to work except the applications.
All applications are silent installers that deploy perfectly through regular deployment.
Here is a link to my smsts.log - http://sdrv.ms/1kg8fiP
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

I'm looking for a good link or technical article on how to configure the "Generate Operations Manager alert when software update installation fails" when deploying software? I believe this requires configuration on Operations Manager as well but a write up on how to configure this from start to finish would be helpful.
Thanks!
Application is deployed is available with install and uninstall program requirement is user can install application but uninstall application done via administrator (meaning uninstall should grayed out for users and it should enable for administrator) is it is possible to setup same in application deployment?
