Hi all, the packages from our packaging team need be carefully checked (naming conventions, FTAs, shortcuts on the desktop etc etc etc) according to our defined engineering standards. QA checking is really costly in human effort but necessary to ensure a consistent quality output. Sometimes a major mistake is discovered. The packages are made with AdminStudio. We need to automate the checking to our exact specifications. Anyone have experience of automated QA ? We have budget to bring in external help if the person/company can really deliver. Thanks

Hi, I've searched but didn't find a match for this question. We are introducing App-V at a large company and the company already has Q drive assigned to business applications and many hard-coded paths are reference a server mapped as Q. So to use Q for App-V we would need to spend months (even years) migrating the existing systems to another letter. We started our tests using B. Now we find that AdminStudio with Virtualisation Pack cannot sequence to anything other than Q. We wanted to use this tool to create sequences. We have exchanged many messages with Flexera support and the conclusion is that AS is locked to Q. This limitation causes a big problem for us so before giving up ... I ask ... does anyone have a different experience and can advise how to use B ? Also .... I understand AS ignore Custom Actions when creating App-V. Not impressive. Thanks so much for any advice. Regards

Thanks Hyperzulu. I wonder why they would default to this. Another example of strange thinking by Flexera. Would Google do that ?

I can only see the first page when browsing. No option to go to Page 2, 3, etc. Search works and produces results.

Dear all, we are licensed for the Virtualisation Pack. Haven't yet decided on the best approach for new apps. Do you create an MSI and convert the MSI or go direct to the App-V and forget MSIs? What benefits have you seen using the AdminStudio tool over native App-V sequencer in your workplace ? Any downsides ? Thanks D

Hi, we have no production experience with AdminStudio. Planning version 10. How to size the Application Catalog Database Server ? No info in the Release Notes. We need to plan well ahead to get the right capacity. No info on the intensity of use. Does AdminStudio hammer the SQL ? Is it in constant use or works in batch ? This should be in the documentation.

Downloaded the application on 24 March that we have licensed. When trying to install on XP or Windows 2003 with local admin rights. "There is not enough space on drive C:\ to extract this package" The drive has 96GB free. Not impressed.

I am following the Evaluation Guide. From AdminStudio 9.5 I go to the Assistant tab. Browse to an MSI Open. Start Click Repackage And the path is in quotes as per screenshot. I saw a message here earlier from CraigD that the issue was introduced by SP3. Message is no longer visible. IOA-000057675 Now that I know to remove the quotes I am fine.

Cheers Alpesh. That solved it. 🙂 I am not using the command line version. Just following the GUI wizard and that places the quotes. Edit: Actually, this looks like a Flexera bug. I have built a new machine on hardware and repeated from zero. When using the AdminStudio - Assistant - Start - Repackage method .... "quotes" are placed around the path, preventing progress.

Hi all, my employer is purchasing licences for a large team of packagers. It will take a while till we migrate from Wise. Until then I'm familiarising myself using the Evaluation version. I've follow the guide step by step AS95EvalGuide.pdf At Step 10 on Page 61 The Next button is greyed out. No error. No message. Anyone know what is up ? See picture. Have tried with different paths. Restarted. Repeated everything a few times. Can't figure out what it needs. The machine is Win 7 64bit. current version of VMware. Thanks C
