Application installation based on architecture and chassis

Hi,
Want to install application based on OS architecture and also whether the machine is laptop or desktop.
Let me know the WMI query that can be integrated in task sequence.

Using requirements is probably the better way to go but it does depend upon your scenario.
Also note that using Win32_Battery can be problematic for a few different reasons. Generally, the ChassisType attribute of Win32_SystemEnclosure is the preferred method (it's used by MDT). DataWidth of Win32_processor also can be problematic if you have
any legacy/unsupported OSes in the environment also; e.g., XP.

Build an application installer and include files referenced in the code

I want to make an application installer of my project, and I need to include a picture that I'm using in the code.
This picture is used both in the vision assistant and in a low level color pattern match.
What I need is some way to reference this picture in my code, so that when I create the installer and the project is installed on another computer, this file will always get referenced.
Can someone please tell me how to do this?
Thanks in advance!

Your installer should be putting everything in the data folder you need. So it should be fine.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

Managing Application Installs and Uninstalls with AD Groups Tied to Applications

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to come up with a way to manage application deployment and removal based on user collections that have corresponding security groups in AD. I'm using SCCM 2012 r2.
Historically, I've done the following to deploy applications: -
Create a new application, setting the user experience to install for system.
Create two device collections, one named install and the other named uninstall.
Create two application deployments, one to install (targeted at the install device collection) and one to uninstall (targeted at the uninstall device collection).
Add device to install collection to install application.
To uninstall the application, remove the device from the install collection and add it to the uninstall collection.
That has all been working great but moving forward, I'd like to manage deployment based on user collections. So I've approached this as follows: -
For installations, create a new application setting the user experience to install for user.
Create a security group in AD that corresponds to the new application.
Once SCCM synchronizes with AD and the new group appears under SCCM users, create a new user collection making the security group a direct member of the collection. Set the collection to update incrementally.
Create a required installation deployment for the new application and target it at user collection for the application.
Add a user object in AD to AD security group for the application.
Once everything syncs, the user logged on to a workstation gets the application. Up to here, everything works well.
For uninstalls, I've created an AD security group called Application Uninstalls and made domain users a member.
Once this synchronizes with SCCM, I've created a new user collection called Application Uninstalls and made the security group a direct member of the collection. Again, the collection is set to incremental update.
Create an uninstallation deployment for the new application and target it at the 'Application Uninstalls' collection.
The idea behind the uninstallation is to take advantage of the 'application installation deployments take priority over uninstallation deployments'. Because every user is a member of domain users, if they are not a member of the relevant security group to
have an application installed, then the application is automatically uninstalled. The trouble is, if I remove a user from the AD security group where they get the application, the uninstall deployment isn't kicking in like I would expect and removing the application.
Any thoughts? Is this a logical approach or is it flawed?
Any input appreciated!

if I'm reading what you are saying correctly, then has the user logged out and then back on? Since the deployment is to the collection based on group membership, the client would not know that the user is no longer a member of the targeted collection until
the user token has been updated, which happens at log off/log on time.
It does depend on the collection membership - if the collection membership is to the user group, so that the collection member shows the use group, then the log off/log on would be needed.
If the collection membership list displays the individual users, then obviously that collection needs to be updated, AND new policy retrieval at the client so that it knows that it is no longer targeted.
Then, you need an Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle, which is when the client checks to see if apps that are supposed to be installed are.

Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?

Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created? I have created an executable application that I want to distribute to Mac and Linux users (different applications were created in the respective OS). I was wondering if there is any way to create an installer? I think there probably isn't... If the user were to simply download the Labview Run-time Engine from ni.com would they be able to run the application or is it more complicated than that?
Thanks so much for your time.

I think Shane tried to say, that it is on the Mac OS X installation DVD, NOT the LabVIEW for Mac OS X installation medium. And that could very well have changed in recent Mac OS X versions as well. They used to have Xcode on it too, but that seems gone as well.

OWB - Installation Architecture and Infrastructure configuration

I thought it is a good idea to throw this out to the OWB community to see what your thinking is.
This is my first project; we are currently on detail design. The Client requests a document that covers the following details.
Architecture and Infrastructure configuration for OWB - Oracle Warehouse Builder – which is to be targeted at an ehosting data centre.
•     What is the best practice either from Oracle
•     Is it best to go for a 2Tier or 3Tier architecture
Infrastructure being of interest is:
•     The use of Application server and web service for giving visibility and access to the runtime / design repository via the repository browser.
•     The applicable application service i.e.: Control Centre Service
Can this distributed over multiple servers if you application server differs from you database server.
•     Do you have any information similar to this you compiled in the past that I can use
•     Or is there any source you can direct me to get this kind of information

Can this distributed over multiple servers if you
application server differs from you database server.This is not an OWB question. This is a database question. You are asking something like 'can I run Oracle with Apache with Tomcat?'. Simple answer is yes. Compex answer is load balancing?
Cheers,

Cannot Access the Service Partition after installing Lenovo Driver and Application Installation

I recently upgraded my Lenovo 3000 H210, M/T 5355-2NU from Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit) to Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) with the media received through the Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade Fulfillment Program.
I installed the 64-bit version of the Common Components Installation v1.0.0.8 and restarted the computer and then installed the 64-bit version of the Lenovo Driver and Application Installation program, v5.1.0.0900. After
restarting the computer, I receive a message box stating "Cannot access the Service Partition". If I click on
Lenovo Driver and Application Installation on the Start Menu, I receive an error that the installation has not
completed. Restart to complete the installation. If I restart the computer, I am back to the first error.
Any idea how to resolve this situation?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
-Larry

I am having the exact same problem. It's driving me nuts. I also downloaded and attempted to reinstall the factory software from Lenovo's site. It installs but will not launch, giving me the following error message: "This software is for intallation on a Lenovo computer." Or words to that effect.
Hopefully someone knows the answer. Tried tech support twice. Ugh... Thanks in advance.

Installing "Applications" during the task sequence and installation enforcement

Hello,
Kind of a weird question here, so it seems like I'm seeing that if you install an application on a system during its OSD task sequence, then you later manually uninstall that application, that SCCM considers that system now out of compliance?
And then reinstalls the application as indicated in AppEnforce.log? Is this true? If so, how do you get around this behavior? I guess I thought that this application compliance only took effect when you actually deploy an application to a
system, through an actual deployment. I didn't realize that it would enforce compliance even if an application was installed during a task sequence. So if you have hundreds of systems that were imaged with the same task sequence and you have
a small handful of machines that can't have application X on it (so you want to uninstall it), which was installed via the task sequence, how do you disable this compliance enforcement and disable its automatic reinstall?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Sorry for the delayed response, thank you both for your input. To answer both your questions, no these workstations do not have any required deployments for this application directed at them. I have confirmed that, however, they do have
the OSD task sequence deployment (that contains this application) constantly "available" to them (via only "media and PXE") as this makes it very easy for our technicians to reimage any machine whenever they need to (love that feature
by the way).
I can only assume that because they still have this task sequence deployment pointed at them is why they continue to attempt to reinstall this application when ConfigMgr finds that it's not installed anymore. In fact it does it at the same day/time
each week, which I believe is the same day/time of the week that the machines were imaged. I must have the compliance part of the clients configuration to check every 7 days for stuff like this? Anyway, that's my conclusion for now.
Since even Wally Mead felt that this must be an actual required deployment outside of the task sequence I'm really curious to see if anyone else sees this behavior. It would be fairly simple to attempt to recreate, image a machine with a task sequence
that has "application" installs included, where the deployment for it is just "available" and keep the deployment "available" after the machine is reimaged. Then after that, uninstall one of the apps that was installed
during the task sequence via an "application" and then see if it reinstalls automatically, it may wait a while (may 7 days by default?). You can see the evidence of our application reinstalling itself in the "AppEnforce.log".
Is it even remotely possible that this is a new "feature" or behavior of ConfigMgr 2012 and "Applications"?

HT5988 When upgrading my Mac from OS X Snow Leopard, to OS X Mavericks, The installer displayed my parallel and my PC applications. How can i get them back?

When upgrading my Mac from OS X Snow Leopard, to OS X Mavericks, The installer displayed my parallel and my PC applications. How can i get them back?

You either have to restore the Snow Leopard backup you made prior to installing Mavericks, or create a separate Snow Leopard partition to boot to in order to run your older PowerPC applications.
Either that, or upgrade the apps which won't run in Mavericks to newer versions that do.

Installation of forms reports and oracle application server 10g

Hi,
I have been using client server till now, now planning to move to 10g. Got the developer suite 10g.
Tell me how and where to install forms/reports and Oracle application server... I mean forms reports should be on developer PC then what about application server? should it be on a different dedicated server? or can i have it on database server?
in case, if I install application server on one server and database is on another server then what about forms and reports?
please tell me which is the right option?

please tell me which is the right option?Ideally, you should have two separate server machines.
One for the database server.
One for the Application Server.
The Application Server is basically used for hosting your forms and reports, so you dont have to place the forms and reports on the developer PC or at any other server.

Error create new Application Set based on ApShell (BPC 5.1)

On BPC 5.1, I'm trying to create a new Application Set based on Apshell, called "UFG".
At the step where the OLAP database is created, I receive an error message stating the following.
Error message:The ApShell Role role referenced by the CubePermission permission does not exist in the UFG database.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Joost,
yes it's a fresh 5.1 installation. I'm trying the steps you suggested, however I get the following errors:
If I try to assign the installation user to the AdminTeam I receive the following error:

Adobe AIR Application Installer command-line

Could someone provide the command-line reference (parameters
and usage) for Adobe AIR Application Installer?
Tks!

Hey Oliver!
I've applied for an AIR distribution license but I still have
some doubts.
My application is based in one .air component and another one
service created using C++. So, in order to install my application,
I need to install both applications. I've used the bundled
installation mentioned in the distribution docs, but it is not the
best solution for my problem. I would like to have just one entry
point in the “Add/Remove Programs” applet.
Is there another way to deliver the .air application (e.g.
not using the Adobe AIR Application Installer)?
For example, is it possible get all files needed to create my
.air file and install them without creating the .air file properly?
I mean, is there any license or technical restrictions that
invalidate this approach?
Thanks!

Azure based software architecture

Hi,
I would like to create a web based application. It would be a kind of statistics. The user can upload files into the software, the data is processed and later the UI displays the processed data.
I realized that I need a web role for the website. A worker role to process the files. A database to store the processed data.
What I do not really know which communication channel to use. I've checked the service bus but the message is limited to 64 kb (48). There is a blob storage as well for larger files.
Should the web instance save the files into a blob and then notify the worker role via service bus that there is a new file to be processed?
Sorry for the beginner question but I would like to make sure that I start with the best architecture.
Could you please review my architecture and let me know whether it should be changed or not?
Thanks in advance.

uploading to blob storage and writing to a queue to notify a worker role or even an Azure WebJobs should be fine.
if you would like to look at common cloud design patterns, i suggest you have a look at :

Error Installing Adobe Air from Story Desktop Application Installer

This is truly driving me nuts already.
Every time I try to install the Desktop Application from the Story website, it says I must install Adobe Air. So I click Install, it shows the progress bar to 100%, then errors out with a window. The window header reads "Adobe AIR Installer" and the main section of the window reads "Couldn't write the application to the hard disk. Please verify the hard disk is available and try again." - There is a Retry and Cancel. Retry does it all again with same results.
No, I had no previous versions of Adobe Air. So I tried installing AIR direct from the Adobe website, and it installs fine. So I go back to the Story webpage and try installing the Desktop Application again and the exact same set of events as described above happens. I uninstalled the AIR install, tried again, same result.
I had Production Premium CS3 previously, and installed Production Premium CS5 UPGRADE. All the programs in the suite work like a charm!
I'm running Windows 7 64 bit with 208 Gig free on my C drive, as well as over 500 gig free spread out over two other drives. 8 Gig memory, and two Nvidia Qadro FX 3500 video cards (If that matters at all). Full admin rights to the PC, not limited in any way.
A quick Google search shows plenty of other people having the same problem, just no known fixes I've found!
HELP!!!
PS- I have a picture of the error message, but the insert picture link is greyed out and won't let me add anything to this post.

InterVideo WinDVR Application has encountered a problem and needs to close.

My TV Anywhere has suddenly stopoed working and the message "InterVideo WinDVR Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." appears each time I try to open the program. MSI Radio works fine. I have uninstalled and re-installed the programe (originally MSIPVS now MSIPVS3). I did try to download the new Beta drivers just to try, but the zip file shows 0 bytes!
Has anyone come across this, or can anyone suggest what I can try to resolve the issue?
Many thanks in anticipation
