Hi Team,
I am having iussues deploying applications using the Application Catalog in SCCM 2012 R2.
I have successfully deployed a large number of applications that use .msi files.
The issues I am facing are around .exe installers.
I have had a look through and followed the example outlined on resources such as tindarrs's deploy exe files as a msu deployment type This worked for the application he uses by way of example (Notepad++) but the applications I am trying to deploy are still not working.
My instinct is that this is related to the detection rules. However, the AppDiscovery and Appenforce logs dont reflect that.
In fact, looking through the AppEnforce.log I can see entries that seem to show that this is NOT the issue. Here is an excerpt:
+++ Application not discovered. [AppDT Id: ScopeId_44ACC1DB-2130-4ABE-A5D6-B2B586628B32/DeploymentType_1856a754-59f3-4daa-bc79-453ebdd077c6, Revision: 1] AppEnforce 26/09/2014 2:31:29 PM 7376 (0x1CD0)

Looking for exit code 0 in exit codes table... AppEnforce 26/09/2014 2:31:32 PM 7376 (0x1CD0)
Matched exit code 0 to a Success entry in exit codes table. AppEnforce 26/09/2014 2:31:32 PM 7376 (0x1CD0)
So the application in Question here is called Tableau Reader, and is available for download from their website.
I am using the silent installer as described on tableau software's FAQ (article AA001290)
with the slight modification of the command line being: TableauReader-64bit.exe /q:a /c:"setup /q"
I have tried other applications, with more or less the same result. The only variable seems to be the detection method, which is one of the reasons I keep going back to it.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
