AppV client default paths

I want to know if i can publish a package that was created in the sequencer to another path then the default path on the APPV client machine defined in the registry PackageInstallationRoot.
which by default goes to the hidden folder "c:\ProgramData\APPV\".
I know I can change the path in the registry, but I want to know if there is a way I can create a package that when I add and publish on
the client machine it deploys to a path that I define instead of the default path defined in the client registry.

You mean it can't find itself because the file DIR has the hidden attribute?  Haven't seen an app do that before.
I have bad news this is about the best I can come up with.  Let me know if I'm not clear on anything.
Is the app writing its location to a registry key or ini file that you can manipulate?
What would happen if you put C:\Programdata into your package?  Wonder if it would read the attributes differently. 
If the exe is evaluating its own location to determine where it is, you may be short on options....this is the best I can come up with:
Copy the exe out of the bubble into the real file system, essentially treating it the same way you would with a locally installed IE.  The App-V shortcut will turn into C:\Program Files\12345\abcde.exe /appvve:pGUID_vGUID (for example).  We had to
do this with an application and it did work pretty well.  We used the add scripting event to create the needed dir structure, copy the exe, and permission if needed. 
Outside of that maybe you could get a shim to trick the app into believing it is in the 'traditionally' installed path, ie  C:\Program Files\12345\?

  • When saving documents from word 2013, the save as dialog shows the default path under "other web locations"

    it used to be in the gold ole days of sharepoint 2010 and office 2010 that when I created a document in sharepoint and saved it I would get a dialog, like this (see below)  I have also attached a screen shot of the 2013 save dialog (when you save
    a document for the first time).
    I find it strange that the user actually has to select their "Current Folder" and also that it shows in the dialog as "other web locations"  Why can't it be like in the 2010 days where it automically selects the correct location
    and the user just hits save.  And why does the sharepoint location show up as an "other web location".  Is there anything that can be done (through office registry settings or another way) to make this less confusing for our users???
    now when I do this in office 2013 I get a dialog like this:
    krd

    Hi kdube,
    I test in SharePoint 2013 again, When I created a new document library and created a first document and clicked save as, I got a same dialog with you that "Current Folder" was under  "other web locations". 
    But when I created a second document and from then on, when I clicked save as, I got a same dialog with myself that "Current Folder" was under "SharePoint".  
    As I have said, Actually, web locations contain Microsoft SkyDrive and SharePoint libraries. Even the default path under "other web locations", it will not affect the Save As function.

  • Saving report output in default path

    Hi,
    We are using the 6i reports server. We want to save the report output as a file in a default path. We are making the report requests through URL call from within a PL/SQL block. When we give just the filename(this will dynamically be generated for each request) in the DESNAME parameter, it is saving directly into the path where we started the reports server. We don't want to hardcode the required path in the PL/SQL block.
    Can't we set the default path for saving the report output during the configuration of the reports server?
    Is there any alternative to achieve this, like storing the path(without filename) in any configuration file similar to <servername>.conf in 9i reports server?
    Regards,
    Milton.

    Hi Milton
    Try these suggestion and see if they work...
    Add ORACLE_HOME/bin in your system PATH and run Reports Server from the folder where you want your output file to be generated.
    You could also be storing the "default" path in a config file and use IO packages to read it.
    Create a user parameter of character type and do the following in any of the Reports trigger:
    :desname := :p_1 || :desname;
    You may pass the "default" path on the URL.

    If you offer a PDF to the end user, they usually know what to do with it. OTOH, if you wish to provide software to facilitate the local printing, you might launch an application on the client side that accesses the JNLP API's PrintService - that can be done in a sandboxed application.
    A signed application might access the normal J2SE based print services. Though I heard that Sun had decided to make printing a 'prompt on first attempt' deal - even for sandboxed apps., from 1.5 plus (or was it 1.6 plus?).
    It would be a serious security bug if a web site could print on the client printer, without trust or active involvement from the end user.

  • Print Reports on Client Default Printer

    Hi All,
    I am using  Oracle Reports 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.2.0).
    I want to print oracle reports from ADF which is JEE base framework on client default printer. I am send just plane url to generate report to report server. In Oracle forms we have option to get job id of report, but in plain url i am not seeing any thing like that. In forms in am generating PDF wait untill job is finished and then send pdf to client printer by using job id.
    How it will be possible by using plain URL send to report server or any other idea to achieve this task.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How can i change the default path of installation

    I had creative cloud for a while. Today i changed the default installing folder, from the creative cloud settings/prefferences(can't remember) menu, from C to D. Then i uninstalled all the programs from adobe cs6 to take the new cc programs. When i want to reinstall adobe creative cloud it is installing on D and since there is no operating sistem on D i can't install the creative cloud. It keeps installing on D. How can i change the default path of installation if i uninstalled creative cloud?

    Or how can I change the prefered installation folder that can be changed from creative cloud menu/prefferences when i have uninstalled creative cloud?

  • Nokia PC Suite 6.86.9.0 and change default path

    Hi,
    Does anybody know how to change the default paths for "File Manager", "Contacts" and "Messages"?
    When entering those parts of PC Suite it automatically tries to open C:\Program Files\Nokia\Nokia PC Suite 6 folder (installation folder) but in my case this path _must_ be changed in order for the application to work (We use Softgrid to virtualize the application and cannot use hardcoded paths).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    Message Edited by barsom on 23-Apr-2008 08:44 AM

    what about installing the app to a different folder that you need from the very start?
    also this path is mentioned in the following registry key
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Nokia\PCSuite\ApplicationPath1
    but i'm not sure if its a good idea to mess with it

  • Encoding error occurs using parameter "default path for scripts"

    Hello,
    assume we have a script "/home/artur/tymczasowe/test.sql". I can execute it using SQL Developer by:
    @/home/artur/tymczasowe/test.sql
    Everything works as expected.
    Then I set parameter "Tools - Preferences - Database - Worksheet - Default path to look for script" to "/home/artur/tymczasowe" and executed:
    @test.sql
    This time national characters has been lost, everyone replaced with "�".
    The script content:
    --create table a(enc varchar2(8), data varchar2(255));
    delete from a;
    insert into a(enc, data) values ('cp1250', 'zażółć gęślą jaźń');

  • How do I change the default path assigned by Lion?

    Hi Everyone!
    Out-of-the-box, in Finder, the Favorites sidebar, the path for Pictures is: Macintosh HD>Users>vbbuilt>Pictures. 
       Note: vbbuilt is my user name
    I just bought a new external hard drive and have moved all picture files to that external drive, including the iPhoto Library.
    How can I change that path to: External Hard Drive>Pictures ?
    In other words, when I click on  Pictures in the Finder Favorites sidebar, I want to be sent to that Pictures folder on the EHD.
    Thanks! Vince.

    This all goes back to my original problem in this forum thread.
    1. I moved ALL files to an external hard drive.
    2. I WANT to retain Lion's icon image representing the Pictures, Music, and Movie Folders
    3. I WANT to rename Lion's default path for those original Pictures, Music, and Movie folders so that they point to their new locations on the hard drive.
    4. The default  Pictures, Music, and Movie Folders cannot be replaced - I tried that.  The OS-X does not allow deleting the existing folder.  I can place a new folder in the Favorites in the Sidebar, but the graphical representation of that folder, in the sidebar, cannot be changed.  I tried that too and does not work.  I can replace the image with a new graphic from the Get Info pane.  But when I <option> drag n' drop that same folder into the Favorites on the Sidebar, that new substitute graphic does not show up.  The default Icon for a folder is shown.
    Any thoughts on how to get around all these problems?
    Thanks, Vince.

  • Default path for scripts within SQL Developer version 3.2.20.09.87

    I have SQL Developer version 3.2.20.09.87 and needed to know if the 'Set default path to look for scripts' be a UNC path?
    Thanks

    I hadn't tried it but now I did and it worked.
    I also tried setting the Utilities Export default file location to a UNC path and I was able to set it but when I try to go to it via the 'browse' button, it doesnt go to it. It does, however, use it when I export.
    Also when I do File > Open, I'm not able to navigate to UNC paths via the 'Home' or 'Desktop' buttons on the left hand side of the window and am not able to navigate to a network location from the 'Locations' box.
    Any ideas? I am on Windows 7.
    Thanks

  • 2.1 EA1 Bug: Worksheet Keyboard/Screen lag when default path is set

    If you set a value in the default path to look for scripts in preferences > database > worksheet the performance of the editor degrades significantly.

    Hi,
    I tried a simple test with code in development to test the default path:
    -calling a file containing 'prompt hello' 100 times first with no default path then with a default path (default path directory containing 200 files),
    but I did not see a serious issue (both runs came in at around 0.1 seconds (though both runs could vary even with the same setup between 0.05 and 0.15)).
    There was a bug being worked on where large amounts of worksheet output causes a slow down.
    1/Do you have a better test case?
    2/Should this be enough to see your issue?

  • Does SQL Developer support a default Path to SQL scripts

    Just started using SQL Developer.
    In the past, I created shortcuts on my PC desktop to run SQLPLUS to the different
    instances as follows:
    1. Create a shortcut to PLUS80W.exe
    2. Set the property "Start in" to a directory where the SQL scripts are located.
    3. Add the login/password@instance to the end of the shortcut.
    In this way, ypu only needed to click on the shortcut to log into SQLPLUS and run your
    scripts via @script.sql etc.
    Can you setup a default path to SQL scripts SQL Developer so that it can locate
    the scripts on your PC ?

    I did notice in version 13.43 that if you close SQL Developer with a SQL script open in the SQL Worksheet, when you startup SQL Developer the next time it automatically opens the file in the SQL Worksheet with no database connection. It also sets the default path for SQL scripts to be the directory where your open SQL file resides. If you right-click in the SQL Workshop and then click on "Open File" the directory defaults to the directory of the SQL file that is open.
