App cannot run on Windows Server 2012 R2

I have an application that runs well on Windows Server 2012. The application has two editions 32-bit and 64-bit, both are from the same code base.
However, on Windows Server 2102 R2, the x64 version of the application works, but the 32-bit version does not run. Invoking the 32-bit of the application generates the "This app cannot run on you PC" message.
I tried the compatibility troubleshooting, and it does not help.
Any suggestion on what could be the problem?
Thanks.

Windows 8.1 Pro cannot log into RemoteApp running on Windows Server 2012 R2

I have setup a vm running Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard and have enabled multiple RemoteApps. Everything is setup correctly and I can use RD Web Access to access the portal and connect to the remoteapps from any computer except my own. I am
running Windows 8.1 Pro and when I log into the RD Web Access portal, click on one of the apps, it looks like it's loading the session, but gets stuck on Preparing Windows. Everything else up to that point looks like it loads correctly, (i.e. -
Applying Group Policy Settings, applying desktop, etc...). When I log into my Windows 7 dev machine, I can access and run everything just fine. So there must be something between the Windows 8 and 2012 that isn't working quite right.
I have tried logging into the portal as myself and test users...same result.
any ideas?
Jon Wooten

i think there is something in your GPOs or collection settings causing an issue
this happens with any remote app, built-in stuff like notepad or just third party apps?
try not doing any kind of printer/device redirection from that host
you can also do winlogon logging to get a better idea of what's going on during the logon operation
you can also use the verbose logon messages GPO to get detailed login status info
if all else fails I think you need to isolate it by creating a test collection and test user with the bare minimum options

App-V Client on Windows Server 2012

Hi all,
Could you please tell me if Microsoft support running the APP-V Client on a Windows Server 2012 image bundled as Windows 8 in a VDI solution?
Regards,
Mark

Bundled as Windows 8?? I'm assuming you mean RDSH?
If so, yes. You need to download and use the RDS version of the App-V Client.
If for some reason you actually mean a Windows 8 machine then also yes, you just use the Desktop version of the client. Both Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 are supported in App-V, so you shouldn't have a problem.

Windows Server Backup scheduled task run successfully but backup do not start (not running) on Windows Server 2012

Hi,
A backup job has been setup on Windows Server 2012 (Platform: Win32NT; ServicePack: ; Version: 6.2.9200.0; VersionString : Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0) via Windows Backup Software UI (Local Backup 1.0).
It is appearing as a scheduled task "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup" belonging to user 'nt authority\system' in task scheduler.
The problem is that the Backup job never start despite the scheduled task running and completing successfully (when run automatically or manually)!
Would you be able to explain why and assist in resolving that issue?
Here is what we know:
When the backup is run manually via the Windows Backup Software UI, it works fine.
When the backup is run via command line (as set in schedule task) in a cmd command prompt (as local/domain 'administrator' or as 'nt authority\system' which is possible by running command prompt via 'PsExec.exe -i -s cmd'), something like "%windir%\System32\wbadmin.exe
start backup -templateId:{f11eb3aa-74e7-4ff4-a57b-d8d567ee3f77} -quiet", it works fine.
If you manually run the preset scheduled task while logged in as administrator, the task run and complete successfully but the backup job does not start.
Idem if you schedule task is run automatically at scheduled time.
The schedule task run and complete successfully but the backup job does not start.
It is confirmed by running the following in a command prompt as 'nt authority\system':
schtasks /run /tn "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup"
SUCCESS: Attempted to run the scheduled task "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup".
Despite success result, the Backup job does not start running...
No errors or warning appears anywhere in Event Logs (Microsoft > Windows > Backup or Task Scheduler) nor in the scheduled task History tab. The schedule task complete successfully but no Backup job is run...
If scheduled task automatically set by Windows Backup software is duplicated (copied) and set manually it runs fine as 'administrator' and as 'nt authority\system' (subject that 'nt authority\system' is added to the 'Backup Operators' AD group).
Here is an export of the current pre-set schedule task, is there any settings that need to be changed to make it works?

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Once again, the issue is not to run the backup manually from the command line but to have it run via the scheduled task setup by the Windows Backup software.
By default, the schedule task is to be run as NT Authority\System, and when run under this account, the backup does not start (even though account is member of Backup Operators) and job can manually be run via elevated command prompt. This is not a normal
behavior and constitute a major bug in Windows Server 2012.
From my understanding the NT Authority\System account is a built-in account from Windows that should by default be part of the Administrators group (built-in) even though it does not explicitly appears like it in AD by default.
This account shall have by default Administrators rights and Backup Operators rights (via the Administrators group) without being explicitly added to those groups (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/windows/desktop/ms684190%28v=vs.85%29.aspx). By design
it is supposed to be the most powerful account which has unrestricted access to all local system resources. If that is not the case (as it seems) then this would constitute a major bug in Windows Server 2012 edition.
As said previously and as you confirmed, currently by default NT Authority\System on Windows 2012 server cannot start backup manually via an elevated command prompt unless it is manually added to Backup Operators (or Administrators) group. But wouldn't that
constitute a bug of Windows Server 2012?
Our server has not yet been restarted since I added NT Authority\System account to the Administrators group explicitly manually so I cannot yet confirmed it would sort the issue. Indeed it is heavily in use so cannot easily be restarted. Will confirm when
done.
We also have an additional problem where after a while of last reboot, part of the Exchange ECP can no longer be properly loaded in the web browser due to compilation error (compilation is done via NT Authority\System account which seems to no longer have
sufficient right to compile .NET code). What is strange is that it works at first and then stop working at some point... I am hopeful that adding NT Authority\System to the Administrators group would sort this issue as well but once again, that shall not be
needed!!!
Could a Windows Server 2012 update introduced some security policy changes or else that prevent NT Authority\System to have full power?

Does Oracle 11g 32-bit can run on Windows Server 2012 (64 bit) ?

Hello!
I´ve bought Oracle 11g Standard Edition One 4 years ago, (Release 1 11.1.0.6.0 )
and installed on a Windows Server 2008 (32-bit)
We ara planning migrate out BD to a new server with Windows Server 2012 (64-bits)
Can i install and use that Oracle version on the new server ?
or
Can i download and use the same version @ 64-bit with the licence i have with the 32-bit version?
or
Do i need to purchase a new Oracle version specially for 64bits?
Thanks in advance

Hello, me again... (sorry for insist)
4 years ago, we purchased and use an Oracle 11g Standard Edition One Release 1 ( 11.1.0.6.0) @ 32 bits, and runs very good on a winsvr 2008 @32 bits.
I was told i can run Oracle without problems on a WinSvr 2008 @ 64bits
So we'd like to move it to a new server (WinSvr2012 @64bits)
So my question is
* Can we download and use it legally a 64 bit version, or we need to purchase another licence?
* If so, where can i download it?
Thanks in advance

How to display MICR font in XMLP where APPS is running on WINDOWS Server?

Hi,
I'm working on check printing reports with XMLP. In the output I need to print the check number in the last line of the page in MICR fonts. To do this I have followed the below steps...
1. Installed the font (MICRe13b5.ttf) in local machine.
2. Also placed this font in "\apps\ued02\applmgr\common\util\java\1.4\j2sdk1.4.2_04\lib\fonts" folder on the WINDOWS 2003 SERVER.
3. We placed "xdo.cfg" in "\apps\ued02\applmgr\common\util\java\1.4\j2sdk1.4.2_04\lib\fonts" and "\apps\ued02\applmgr\common\util\java\1.4\j2sdk1.4.2_04\lib" folders.
We made an entry for the MICR font in the xdo.cfg file.
When we run the report it's showing the MICR Line in NORMAL FONT (ARIAL).
Can someone help me how to display the MICR fonts where Oracle Apps running on WINDOWS server?

The xdo.cfg contains below info.
<config version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/config/">

<fonts>
<font family="MICRe13b" style="normal" weight="normal">
<truetype path="\apps\ued02\applmgr\common\util\java\1.4\j2sdk1.4.2_04\jre\lib\fonts\MICRe13b5.ttf"/>

HT204053 How to run icloud control panel on a users windows 8 desktop running in windows server 2012?

I have a user on a virtual machine (server 2012) and their desktop is basically a windows 8 environment. When I tried to install icloud control panel 3 it fails, stating that it needs windows 8 or 7.
Since it really is windows 8, but icloud doesn't see that, is it possible to fix this, so it can install?

Hi jerelo:
I have successfully installed iCloud Control Panel 3 on a machine running Windows Server 2012 R2. I am not running a VM on the server; rather, the users (about 10) connect via RDC. In any event, you might check out another thread related to Server 2008: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24899308#24899308.
In the thread, a poster suggests modifying the install file to work on Server 2008 R2. I was experiencing the same problem you describe and after the fix detailed in the cited thread, iCloud installed without any problems. Now all users can access it as normal via RDC.
I hope this helps,
JW

Black Screen on a RDP Session on a Windows 8 VM (with a RemoteFX 3D Card) running on Windows Server 2012 HyperV

Hi,
I am trying to test a Windows 8 VM (RTM) with a RemoteFX 3D adapter (I used Powershell command to add the RemoteFX adapter to the VM) and when I connect the machine with the RDP Client (Windows Server 2012 RTM),
I just get a black screen.
Off course, I can not connect using VM Connect (because RemoteFX is enable in the VM).
I tested same configuration but this time with a Windows 7 VM and this time it's OK, RemoteFX working fine.
Any Idea will be apreciated :-)
Stanislas Quastana, Microsoft France http://blogs.technet.com/stanislas

I may have a solution for this which I am about to test.
My environment is 2012R2, Win8.1 VDI Machines on a Dell R720 with Nvidia GRID K2.
I've been trying to rollout VDI all week with everything working except RemoteFX.
On logon the screen is just black but if you press enter it continues to log on, it appears that the logon message text may be causing the issue so I have created a GPO for my template machines and client machines which disables require CTRL+ALT+DEL
and also deletes from the registry the logon message and logon text entries that are displayed on all machines, I figure the users will see this when logging onto their ThinPC machine before connecting to VDI so it's not needed twice.
CONFIRMED working!!

THANKS

The kinda answer I like: download, copy, mesh, hack. Looks very nice, must work in most cases, but not this time for me. Behavior was exactly the same, running the nightly build.
Just for the records:
Safari prefs in my Windows live happy in:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Apple Computer\Safari
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\Safari
These days I installed an Safari in a brand new 2003 and worked nice. Bug 4 x 1 Safari. Bug still winning.
So, it must be some stuff, some little tricky service or software I install in my usual Windows.
Anyway, thank you very much...
If someone have some clue, I'll apreciate

Windows Store apps on Windows Server 2012 with XenApp?

We've got asked by a vendor whether our app will be able to support multiple simultaneous users, when installed on Windows Server 2012 and accessed via XenApp.
I suppose the real question here is whether or not Windows Store apps can be run in XenApp over Windows Server 2012 at all, and if so whether there are any special requirements on the apps to support multiple simultaneous instances execution.
The app itself takes each user through a log in procedure, during which all the dynamic user-specific data is retrieved from the back-end server; no such data is stored by the app locally.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Alex

Some performance counter objects are not available for a 32-bit process on 64-bit versions of Windows Server 2012 standard

When we try to gather performance counter information for a 32-bit process on a 64-bit computer that is running Microsoft Windows Server 2012, all our performance counter objects are not available with 32 bit perfmon application (C:\Windows\SysWOW64\perfmon.exe)
I didn't notified any errors while registering our counter objects or while running Perfmon.exe
Note: Same counter objects are available and working fine with Windows Server 2008 R2.
for diagnostic our counters on WIN2012, ran command as follows:
cd c:\windows\sysWOW64
lodctr /Q
I am able to see all our counter objects on response and infact all were shown as enabled, as shown below
Appreciate quiclk response with solution or clues to diagnose it more details.
Thanks & Regards,
Sudhakar Rudra

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I hope you understood our problem.
same our system counter objects (ver x), we able to browse from Perfmon 32 bit app on Windows 7, Windows 2008 R2 (64bit) OS but not on Windows 2012.
I am able to see all counter objects registered as follows (same at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\HMI Alarm Class\Performance,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services\HMI Alarm Class\Performance
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HMI Alarm Class\Performance)
Only difference I observed that "Disable Performance Counters" were set to 4 in Windows 2012 OS unlike other windows 7 64bit OS and there is no differnece for remaining all entires.
I tried setting that "Disable Performance Counters" value to "0", but some how they get reset to "4", no luck..
I think "Disable Performance Counters" value either "0", or "4", should not matter for browsing our counters with 32bit bit perfmon applicaiton.
Do you see any issues of registry entries. ?
On what basis perfomance monitor list few enabled counters?
How can we add our counters manually to perfomance monitor?

VLM 3.1 on Windows Server 2012 R2

Looking at the supported operating systems for VLM 3.1 I see Windows Server 2012 R2 is not on the list. Will VLM 3.1.1 run on Windows Server 2012 R2?
We are in need of replacing our license server and my IT team is asking what OS I need. I can use 2008 R2, but if this will run on 2012 R2, it would be preferred.
Thanks
Troy
Troy

You are correct, VLM 3.1 is not supported by Windows Server 2012 R2. However, 2008 R2 is supported. If you have acces to 2008, this is the course you should take.

Upgrading Windows Server 2012 Essential Eval to Windows Server 2012 R2 Retail

I need to upgrade from Windows Server 2012 Essential Eval version to Windows Server 2012 R2 Retail. What would be the easiest way to upgrade if license $$ is not an issue? The Server is a DC. Would the following works:
1. Upgrade from Windows Server 2012 Essential Eval to Windows Server 2012 Essential Retail
2. Do a conversion from Windows Server 2012 Essential Retail to Windows Server 2012 Standard Retail (I suppose this just require several command line to enable the 2012 Standard)
3. Do an in-place upgrade from Windows Server 2012 Standard to Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard (there is no need to do migration, am I right?)
Thanks.

I just did a simulation using Hyper V. It seems that I'm able to do the upgrade sequence as described but I'm not sure whether there are any side effect that not yet surface out. Here is the details steps that I took:
1. Under Windows Server 2012 Essential Eval
convert the Windows Server Essential 2012 Eval to Windows Server Standard 2012 using the following command in an elevated command prompot
dism /online /set-edition:ServerStandard /productkey:xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx /accepteula
press "y" and return to restart as prompted
the productkey could be retail key or the KMS client keys (just for installation not for activiation)
2. After reboot, the system become Windows Server 2012 Standard
using admin account to login
add admin account to the Enterprise Admins group and Schema Admins group if not already done so, logout and login again
mount the Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard disk in, say, drive d:
in an elevated command prompt, go the following:
cd d:\support\adprep
.\adprep.exe /forestprep
.\adprep.exe /domainprep
double click on d: in explore to run the Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard setup
follow the instruction to complete the in-place upgrade from Windos Server 2012 to Windows Server 2012 R2
3. After reboot into Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard, go to the charms bar, select setting -> server info, it will mention the server is not activated, click on Activate Windows and key in the Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard retail key

Downgrade Windows server 2012 64 bit to windows server 2008 R2 32 bit

HI,
what I want to know is when Downgrading Windows server 2012 64 bit to windows server 2008 R2 32 bit, will there be any issues of the license? Can I use the same license of 2012 server for the new 2008 installation.

Hi,
Based on my experience, we cannot use the Windows Server 2012 license key to activate a Windows Server 2008 install.
In addition, which channel the windows server 2012 was purchased through? It seems that the media and product keys to downgrade are not provided although downgrade rights are granted
since Microsoft only supplies bits and product keys to Volume License customers and only for certain versions and editions of the software.
I recommend you to contact the Licensing Activation Centers below for assistance:
