Hi,
I have get several reports that user experiance with App-V take to long time to load 6 minutes for the first user 3 minutes for the second user. I have several App-V applications 10-15 that is required and streamining. and the first application wait for the last one to load.
I have not yet start to dig in any log, it would be helpfull is any have any idea of this user experionce.

Hi,
I have deployed an application using SCCM. The user being a local administrator removed it using the Control Panel.
Now I need to deploy it again to the user but for SCCM it looks as if it is already installed so it will not start the deployment. How can I force this redeployment to happen?
SCCM 2012 SP1
I'm building a series of new 2008R2 servers and preparing them for the installation of a particular software.
There are prerequisites that need to be installed prior to the final product being installed, such as C++ redistributables and other MSI packages.
I've created the install packages (applications) and put an available time of 5 min from now and a deadline of 10 min from now.
I used the R-click tools to force the "Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle"
I came back an hour later and only 1 of the servers had ANY of the installations either In Progress or Compliant .... how do I get these systems to install the applications immediately?
Hi
I need to customize my application deployment on the following sequence:
I create 2 applications:
Second application use file detection like on image
But this detection not work and deployment fail with . In DCMWmiProvider.log I see next error:
CAppExecutionLibrary::ExpandEnvironmentVariables: %AppData%\1C\1CEStart\ evaluated to : %AppData%\1C\1CEStart\ FileSystemWMIProvider 18.04.2013 19:39:54 5412 (0x1524) CAppExecutionLibrary::ExpandEnvironmentVariables: %WinDir%\System32 evaluated to : C:\Windows\System32 FileSystemWMIProvider 18.04.2013 19:39:54 5412 (0x1524) CAppExecutionLibrary::ExpandEnvironmentVariables: %ProgramFiles% evaluated to : C:\Program Files FileSystemWMIProvider 18.04.2013 19:39:54 5412 (0x1524)What i need change to use file detection for %AppData% folder
Hi
I have a very basic question about app-v and sccm integration , as I just began reading up on it. How do you know which apps can be virtualized and streamed?. I guess only certain apps will be able to do this?
I apologize for the length of this post.
Objective: To apply Java updates to only those machines that need it using ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 with Java as an Application.
I have four types of machines: 1 – only has Java 1.6 installed 2- only has Java 1.7 installed, 3- has both versions of Java installed and 4- has no Java installed. Most are x86 version of Java, a few are x64 or bot x86 and x64.
I want to only install the version of Java update on the machine if it have that version of Java installed, for example I only want to install Java 1.6.0_43 to those machines that already have Java 1.6 install. I don’t want to install it if it doesn’t have Java 1.6 installed.
I have 5 test machines set up. A - Is a Windows 7 x64 machine with Java 1.6_41 x86 and Java 1.7_17 x86 installed. B – is a Windows XP x86 with only Java 1.7_17 installed, C – is a Windows 7 x-64 with Java 1.7_17 x86 installed, D – is Windows 7 x-64 with Java 1.6_41 x86 installed & E – is a Windows 7 x64 with Java 1.6_24 & Java 1.7_9 both x86 installed.
SCCM Java Application: I first downloaded the proper Java update file (.exe file) from the Java web site. I then extracted the Data1.cab and jre<ver>.msi file. I used ORCA to adjust the Properties for such things as turning off JavaUpdates and such. These changes were saved to a mst file.
I then used the msi file to create the Java Application from. I used the ‘Automatic detection’ option to create the application. I then edited the application so that it would look like this:
Deployment Type:
Installation program: msiexec /i "jre1.6.0_41.msi" transforms="jre1.6.0_41.mst"
Uninstall Program: msiexec /x {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83216041FF} /q
Checked the “Run installation and uninstall program as 32-bit process on 64-bit clients”
Detection Method: Registry, key is HKLM\Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.6
Checked the “This registry key is associated with a 32-bit application on 64-bit systems”
Created a custom Global Condition and used it in the ‘Requirements’ tab.
Custom Global Condition is: Registry key of HKLM\Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.6
I then deployed this to the 5 test machines. None of the machines installed the update.
Help. What am I doing wrong?
Ken Lutz - Spokane County
Well, let me start this off by saying that hopefully I'm doing something wrong...
What I'm looking to achieve is to Install some App-V sequenced applications to some users Primary Devices before the user logs in, but to also have these applications be usable by anyone and everyone that might come along later and use this same computer.
That's all easy enough with regular applications in SCCM, but I'm running into issues doing this with App-V applications.
I've noticed that if I just make an App-V application "Available" to a user and they go to the Application Catalog and install it, then what I get is an application that installs into the profile specific AppData directory and then that application is not available to anyone else on that machine.
If I deploy an Application and target the computer instead, then the same App-V application will install into the ProgramData directory and everyone that comes along can use this application (this is fine, but I really want to target users and not computers).
So what I tried next was to Deploy the application to a user and make it a "Required" application and to also set it to "pre-deploy" to the users primary device as seen in the image below.
However, when I do this...what I'm seeing now is that the application installs in BOTH locations. If the user has never logged in, the application will install in only the ProgramData directory which makes it available to the machine. Then when they do login, SCCM decides that it also needs to isntall the application to the user...and it does (giving them double desktop icons). Or if they are logged in when the install happens then it goes ahead and installs to both locations at the same time (again with double desktop icons).
So...how do I resolve this?
As stated, I want the app on the machine, but only once and I prefer to target users. Can this be done with an App-V application?
Mike...
I created a new Application. I deployed this to a test machine. The software installs on my 1 target machine and works. But I don't see where this file goes. Explain..... When I created the application I added it to 1 DP. I look at this DP and I see the following folders.
SMSPKGH$ (empty)
SMSPKGSIG (has a few package folders but NOT the application I deployed)
SMSSIG$ (has .TAR files that match the folders in smspkgsig but no .tar file for the application I deployed)
And on my target machine I see no Cache folder. The only thing I see is c:\windows\CIDownloader
So where is the Application on the server and where does it get copied too on the local workstation?

I have a task sequence that runs some commands and installs some Programs (not Applications). The DOS commands work, but the programs will not install. Below is a typical excerpt from smsts.log. I've highlighted the errors. Any ideas what may be causing this behavior?

Upper management would like us to display a message like "Java 7 update 21 as been successfully installed for you by IT Department" to devices in collections after a package push. We are new to software deployment with SCCM 2012 and my only idea was to run a package installation of a .vbs pop-up or something but that sounds a little silly, and how many of those will be in add remove programs after a couple of years??.
How would others or more experienced System Center Admins handle this request?
Thank You, Joe
I am deploying Office 2010 SP1 x86 (using SCCM 2012)- I am removing the existing office 2003 install. It works great but... I have a subset of machines that already have Excel 2010 installed with the existing 2003 install. When the application deploy hits these machines- that 2010 application is listed as installed (presumably detecting the existing 2010 Excel install) does anone know of a way to configure the 2010 application to install to install over the top or force a re-install ?
Hi
I am new to SCCM 2012 SP1. I heard from my colleague that the application will retry if it is fails in installing on the SCCM Clients.
Can anyone help me if the applications on SCCM Client fails to install, How many does the SCCM client retries? Is it based on number of times or the time limit?
Best Regards

In SCCM2007 we had the option of telling a user to rerun the installation in Run Advertised Programs when he had problems with an application. This would trigger a repair (depending on package).
In SCCM 2012 we can rerun packages from Software Center but not Applications. Microsoft wants us all to go to the Application Model. Is there a way to get this?
I know that the application model has its own check with things like the MSI-guid but that is very basic: an application could not function anymore, but if the guid is still installed on the system, the application deployment evaluation cycle will not detect
this situation.

Hi guys,
Fairly new to SCCM so please bare with me. Have a single site server running SP1. All roles on this single VM.
Have a number of applications in the application catalogue, and all appears to be okay. Accidentially Office 2010 was deployed to All Users for a few hours two weeks ago. The deployment was soon removed, however a few machines already had 2010 by this point.
The following day a few more machine had it, although this appeared to be cached / delayed still so nothing to worry about. As week went on we heard of less and less machines being impacted. Around 90% of our estate was untouched, with them still using Office 2007.
However two weeks later - and I've had 8 machines so far install Office 2010. The application still has no deployment against it, and looking at the revision history it hasn't been touched since I last removed the deployment... So why on earth are these machines STILL installing Office 2010?!
From what I understand, SCCM will retry a failed install (unless it's a permanent fail code) within 10 minutes time, and keep doing this until it's successful or until the application in question is no longer deployed. (Ref: http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/jsandys/archive/2011/01/16/configmgr-and-failed-program-retry.aspx)
So ruling out retry issues... what else would be causing machines to be installing Office 2010 two weeks after I've removed the deployment? Mixture of desktops and laptops, all have 2007 installed prior to 2010, single site, fast LAN...
Where should I be looking to confirm the REASON for the installation? I've gone through the client logs but can't find any reaons - just the action itself.
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks,
Steve

I am working on deploying SP1 CU1 x64 client upgrade and some machines are having the following error:
Message ID: 10007 Status Type: Error Description: Fatal Error During Installation.
Over 75% of client did install it successfully so I am not sure what is going on. If I install it manually, it works.
Thanks!

We currently have a package to push our Visual Studio 2012 RTM through SCCM 2012. We'd like to use SCCM to deploy the Updates as well, but we don't have a good way to detect whether Update 2 has been applied or not.
How can we detect whether a client machine is running VS 2012 RTM as opposed to Update 2? Is there a file or registry entry we can look up?
Thanks,
Matt
(Note: I'm cross-posting this from the Visual Studio forums in case anybody here has encountered this already.)
Hi All,
I have an issue when trying to install software from the application catalog, I get the error on the screenshot below.
I have tried it as Domain admin as well as a non-admin user so it is not reason 1. Its a real PC so no RDC, so not option 2. IE is ran as same account so not reason 3. Tried setting the Primary Device User via the SCCM Console but this didnt seem to make a difference. Tried to set it in the "My Devices" tab but the option is greyed out.
Any ideas or can anyone suggest where to try and look for logs?
Cheers
Gary
