Virtualization

Hi,

I am in the process of converting our virtualised applications from APPV 4.6 to APPV 5.0.

Some of the applications are converting without a problem. However, there are a few others that aren't converting as a result of having some date in the <DEPENDENCY> area of the OSD.

For example

<DEPENDENCY>
  <CLIENTVERSION VERSION="4.6.0.0"/>
  <SCRIPT TIMING="PRE" EVENT="LAUNCH" WAIT="TRUE" PROTECT="TRUE">
   <HREF>cmd.exe /c del /q /f "%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%Windows\plclient.ini"</HREF>
  </SCRIPT>
  <SCRIPT EVENT="LAUNCH" TIMING="PRE" PROTECT="FALSE" WAIT="TRUE">
   <HREF>REG.EXE ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "Y:\Powlog36.054\plclient.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "WINXPSP3" /f</HREF>
  </SCRIPT>
 </DEPENDENCY>

I have a couple of questions. Firstly, can this be converted? I am thinking if I were to remove this information from the OSD that it would probable convert ok. But I would need this information in my APPV 5.0 package. Which leads to my second question. How would I achieve the same result in my APPV 5.0 configuration files? Where do I eidt in my config files?

I was thinking I needed to input my information in the Deployment_config.xml file in the Machine Scripts area, under something like this

<AddPackage>
 
<Path>powershell.exe </Path>
 
<Arguments>-ExecutionPolicy ByPass -File installDriver.ps1 arg1 arg2</Arguments>
 
</AddPackage >
__________________________________________
<PublishPackage>
 
<Path>powershell.exe </Path>
 
<Arguments>.\Scripts\InstallDriver.ps1 </Arguments> OR can be <Arguments>[{AppVPackageRoot}]\..\Scripts\InstallDriver.ps1 </Arguments>
 
<Wait RollbackOnError="true" (Doesn't continue if script fails) Timeout="120"/> A timeout of ‘0’ means “wait indefinitely” for the process to exit
 
</PublishPackage> 

I am new to APPV 5.0 and so I'm not sure where I'm supposed to edit the configuration files to get the same result as when I edited the OSD files in APPV 4.6

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark
