Publisher editor issue

Hi,
If a try to add a link like this:
http://portal.myorg.edu/portal/server.pt?open=512...
using the publisher editor, and save it, the link is Ok. If I reopen the editor, the link is changed to
"/server.pt?open=512..."
which is pointing to the content server name, instead of the portal name.
Any clue how I can disable this editor behavior, or how I can do a work around?
Thanks!

Val,
This is an issue with the rich text editor. There are a few ways to work around this. One is to not use the rich text editor at all. Basically making the field a text box. Another is to make another property and call it link1 or something like that. Lastly you can create a content item that does a javascript redirect. This would require you to make a new data entry template with a field for the community id and page number. Then a presentation template that does a redirect to a pt opener location. See the docs for help on those. Then you make a new content item. This could be "comm page bob" for instance. Then in the original content item you highlight your text, then choose link from the menu. Then you choose the content item you created earlier, "comm page bob". This will make a working link that does not get destroyed by the rich text editor. I know this is not ideal, but this is the only way I know of. I have complained to BEA about this behavior many times, but I do not think it will be fixed any time soon. Let me know if you need any more help.

DAM Asset Editor Issue

Hi All,
I am facing one issue regarding the asset editor in cq 5.5 sp2.
When I open image by browsing through the folders in DAM every thing works fine. It shows all the data below the image and image type , Publish to Scene7 link as well.
When I open the same image by searching it wont show image type and publish to scene7 link.
Problem here is for the same image it shows different views when we open it in different ways. Internally if the image type is not coming then it will take default asset editor(instead of jpeg asset editor) because of this some of the metadata changes (custom metadta cahnges which we need) in the center page are not showing up when we open the image by searching.
Thanks,
Maruthi

I've been struggling with this same issue on the same platform (5.5 sp2). Here is what I know so far:
When you are browsing the DAM tree under the Digital Assets tab and open a jpg, then the asset editor retrieves a list of image-specific fields from /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/image/jpeg/formitems .
When you use the DAM Search tab to find the jpg, then the asset editor retrieves the list of generic fields from /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems .
This issue also affects PDFs. The Digital Assets tab will use the pdf-specifc fields from /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/application/pdf/formitems but the Search tab will use the generic fields from /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems .
In other words, the DAM Search widget isn't loading the desired fields into the asset editor. You can force the asset editor to load the correct fields by refreshing your entire browser. I may try to patch this by overlaying the DAM Search widget if I can find it.

FCKEditor within portlet or Publisher - Licensing issues?

Hi Everyone,
I'd like to use FCKEditor (http://www.fckeditor.net/) within some portlets and maybe within publisher as a replacement for the out of box editor (although not sure about this one yet) but my client is (rightly) concerned about licensing...(http://www.fckeditor.net/license) especially since there is a "Commercial License - Closed Distribution License - CDL".
My understanding of this is that everyone can use the editor (personnal or companies) as long as it in compliance with the GPL, LGPL and MPL open source licenses.
Which in summary (from what i understand) consists of making sure that any customization to the editor needs to be pushed back to the open source community and that you cannot sell such customization within one of your product...
But i am not a lawyer and might be missing a lot of stuff...Has anyone looked into this, especially if you have used FCKEditor (or any other open source products) within some of your portlet code?
Thanks much,
Fabien

We use the same for one our clients too and there have been no legal issues. So i guess u can be assured that there aren't any licensing issues.

XML Publisher Report Issues

Hi,
We have customized a report (XML Publisher) in which our template is in XSL format.When using this stylesheet (.XSL) to print out PO's, there are some problems with the page layout, more specifically regarding the page breaks:
1) Extra empty page is printed - can this be avoided?
2) If the entire line block does not fit on the page, the line should be completely shifted to the next page (called "widow and orfan control" in MS Word) ?
How to avoid these issues? Replies will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sumir

Remarks
1.1
Pasting of regular text results in double-line spacing. Pasting of code with Syntax Highlighting does not produce double-line spacing, but includes line numbers when pasting in a rich text editor window, or results in indented lines when pasting to the command prompt or plain text window.
1.2
Pasting of code with Syntax Highlighting includes line numbers when pasting into notepad or to the command prompt. Copying of normal text does not wrap and appears a single line when pasting into notepad.
3.1
Selecting of code and copying works, but selected text looks like a tape and is not visible.
5.1
Copy works find and does not include line numbers, but the text is indented.
When pasting text into a rich text enabled editor window, it includes line numbers.
5.2
Code in syntax highlighting does not copy blank lines, but copies line numbers.
6.1
Only parts of a code segment can be copied, but not the complete code segment. Copy and paste always copies an additional line that was actually not selected.
6.3
Copy and paste only copies the code but not syntax highlighting, which can however be can be re-applied.
8.1
Applying syntax highlighting now applies a font that is suitable for displaying code.
However, it is not possible to change the font, if necessary, or apply color or bold or highlighting. Color can be applied, which looks like double-vision, but anyway is removed when posting.
10.1
Not working reliably. Sometimes the last line selected is not changed, or only the first line changes.
11.1
Sometimes fonts are not displayed properly, for instance, the text insertion point may show Arial, but the text is Courier. There is no clear pattern when this happens or what triggers the problem.
11.3
The text insertion point or selected text always reports the font name "font family", regardless of the font applied.
15.1
Ctrl-z aborting editor functions under Firefox on Mac OS X. However, Cmd-z, which is standard, works properly. This problem does not affect Safari.
Issue
Steps to reproduce
Workaround
1
Copy a couple or more lines of text from a discussion window and paste it into any application or document on your host system. For instance:
The following may produce double line spacing:
If there are two or more ways to do something, and one of those
ways can result in a catastrophe, then someone will do it.
The following should work correctly:
If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will
cause the most damage will be the first one to go wrong
Use Shift-Return instead of Return to terminate the end of lines when creating text.
Use a different browser to perform cut and paste operations, such as Apple Safari or Google Chrome.
2
Paste some text code into the forum editor window. Select the code and choose Syntax Highlighting:Plain from the editor toolbar (>>). Close and re-edit the thread. It is not possible to place the insertion point below the block of code in order to add any additional lines of code or to add any normal text. For instance:
mknod compress_pipe p
mknod export_pipe p
chmod +rw export_pipe compress_pipe
nohup split -b 8192m < export_pipe &
nohup gzip < compress_pipe > export_pipe &
exp system/passwd full=y direct=y consistent=y compress=n \
buffer=10485760 file=compress_pipe
It is possible to insert additional code or text below Syntax Highlighting, provided the frame it is not the end, as shown in issue 7.
Add any line of text at the end of your code before applying Syntax Highlighting to the lines above.
Adding code within the frame of Syntax Highlighting works in Safari and Google Chrome.
3
Re-edit a post with Syntax Highlighting. It is not possible to properly select any lines of code. An additional empty code line is added and the focus is shifted. The selection mask does not match the actual text. It is pretty much impossible to re-edit Syntax Highlighting.
Screenshot: http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/6121/viun.jpg
Use Safari or Google Chrome when to re-edit text or code under Syntax Highlighting.
4
Every subsequent edit of a post with Syntax Highlighting adds an empty blank line to the code block with an incremented line number. The resulting empty lines (07, 08) shown in the screenshot cannot be selected or removed unless there is text below the code frame as shown in issue 7. Screenshot: http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/5514/cxkd.jpg
Removing of empty lines woks in Safari and Google Chrome.
5
When browsing code with Syntax Highlighting, it is not possible to select the code without the line numbers. Screenshot: http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/6626/j7n7.jpg
Select and copy each line separately. Or use Firefox or Google Chrome, but note issue in Remark 5.
6
When editing, it is possible to copy and paste lines under Syntax Highlighting when selecting the lines, but not when selecting the complete Syntax Highlighting frame.
Carefully select text without the Syntax Highlighting frame boundaries.
7
Empty lines and white space (identation) in Syntax Highlighting are suppressed when browsing, although they exist in the actual post. For instance:
mknod compress_pipe p
   mknod export_pipe p
Screenshot when editing the above code:
http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/673/kmy4.jpg
8
Syntax Highlighting changes the font to Arial and it is not possible to apply something more suitable for the displaying of code, such as fixed-width Courier New.
mknod compress_pipe p
Arial: 1l0OI
Courier New: 1l0OI
Arial: 1l0OI
Courier New: 1l0OI
9
It is not possible to paste any text into the editor window.
Use a different web browser or downgrade to IE 10.
Or enable F12 Developer Tools from the Tools menu. Press Ctrl-8
Change the default document mode from Edge to IE 10. Select Leave this page.
10
Create a new thread and type several lines of text. Then select select several lines of text and choose a font, e.g. Courier New. Not all selected lines are changed and only a couple of lines remain highlighted. For instance:
It is difficult to prove the existence of aliens.
Photos exist with aliens, but they could be fake.
On the other hand, photos without aliens could be fake too.
11
Select a line of text and change the font to Courier New. Then select the line again and it will show Arial. Change the font to Courier New and the text will change back to Arial.
12
Copy a URL and paste it into the editor window. The URL will be shown as a hyperlink using blue text. It is not possible to continue with normal writing without changing the text of the link. The text insertion point is captured inside the text of the link when trying to click below the link.
After pasting the URL, use the arrow key or mouse to move the cursor to the end of the link, then press RETURN and start writing normally. You can than move the cursor to the beginning of the line and use BACKSPACE to move the text up, after the link.
13
When replying to a thread and pressing the Quote Previous Message button and then clicking inside the quoted text, for instance, to remove some of the content, it is sometimes no longer possible to move the text insertion point outside of the quoted text back to the normal editing area.
When this happens it helps to switch to HTML and then switch back to the Full Editor.
14
While writing normal text in the editor, it sometimes becomes impossible to edit a line of text. When clicking on any text to move the text insertion point, it selects the complete paragraph instead. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/585/d0v5.jpg. When pressing the "Post Message" button, a dialog appears to "Stay" or "Leave" the page.
Apparently the editor adds HTML label tags for no apparent reason, which can be seen when switching the editor to HTML mode. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/199/1r5a.jpg
15
Copy some text into the editor window. Select the text and choose Syntax Highlighting form the >> insert toolbar. Undo using Ctrl-z. It is no longer possible to use any of the >> insert functions. After that it is also not possible to post the message, resulting in an unexpected error and the content is lost.
16
Syntax Highlighting shows several <span> at the beginning and end of the Syntax Highlighting block after posting. This affects old and new posts.
17
When changing the width of a table column, entering the 2nd number gets punched into the cell content instead.
After entering the first number, click in the entry field again to enter the 2nd number.
18
19
Automatic insertion of links to support.oracle.com contains more info, including responses from Oracle staff.
20
Change the width of browser window until the editor toolbar appears. It will then stay on top when scrolling through pages.
21
Select Syntax Highlighting, Plain from the >> insert menu, then copy and past several lines of text (code) into it. Or, copy and paste the text, then mark the text with the mouse and select SH from the insert menu. Many times, the insertion point is not reflecting it's actual position when you click inside the text. Very often it is also not possible to position the insertion point to the end or beginning of a line using the left and right arrow keys; the insertion point jumps to the next line, even though the end of the line has not been reached.
For instance:
The text insertion point [|] is showing up between the words "point" and "is", but when pressing the delete key or entering text, it affects a different area.
22
The following is a picture with text and Syntax Highlighting.
In tables, pressing the delete key will remove or rearrange the hover-up window.
23
The original or initial post of a thread is shown with a grey background when browsing. Depending on the web browser application, this background is also copied when doing a copy and paste of the text, provided the target window supports rich text editing.
Change the target editor window to plain text.
24
After resizing a pasted image to the same size than the original, the quality is much worse. The following shows a screenshot of the original and copied image:
When resizing a picture by moving the image end-points, the editor does no longer show the current picture dimensions (pixel x pixel) as it did in Jive 5. Also when copying a picture between documents, the picture is enlarged and requires resizing.
25
Copy and paste content from /etc/oratab, for example:
The same also happens when pasting the text into a Syntax Highlighting field.
It is often necessary to use undo (ctrl-z, cmd-z) to get rid of the mess.
26

Holy.... wow, this is helpful, thank you so much for kicking this off, Dude!
BluShadow I know you are in favor of reenabling code formatting and ditching the Syntax Highlighter altogether. I've also heard that users would prefer the advanced editor to open by default. Anything else on the wishlist?
correction, I would certainly be in favour (favor to you ) of reenabling code tags, mainly because I work quicker by copy/paste and by keyboard than by having to click through a load of buttons (that currently don't do what they should). I've not said that syntax highlighting should be ditched altogether, and I'd certainly be in favour of it being there, just so long as it provided a decent formatting that was appropriate, so code actually looked like code, and the ability for people to copy/paste the code out of the forum to their own environment wasn't corrupted with double line spacing (as dude has already mentioned) and the addition of the line numbers it puts in (the line numbers are useful for reference on the forum, e.g. when we want to say "you're problem is on line X", but not good when you copy/paste code out to your environment and have to spend ages deleting them all to get the code to do anything). If it's too difficult, then removing the line numbers from the code formatting would be preferable to having them there and not being able to copy the code out without them.
I agree with dude that it would be good to be able to highlight portions of code with bold or colours, which the old forum didn't allow, but this one does, so it's really a combination of old and new that's needed. And as dude highlights, the supressing of blank lines is a pain as it can make the posting of multiple code commands become all compressed and difficult to read, and is not representative of what we have in our interfaces such as SQL*Plus etc.
Basic example:
Copy paste from my SQL*Plus window into the forum (and me applying courier new and quoting it)...

Obviously that's a basic example; in reality we can be providing a solution to someone, explaining multiple steps and commands to demonstrate their issue and the solution, and having to go back through the code once we've pasted it adding back in all the line spacings, is a real pain and time consuming.
Certainly, having the advanced editor options available immediately for replying would be better than having to switch to it manually, especially as most people using these forums are going to want to paste code in (what with it being a technical forum and not really a social forum), and the basic editor just doesn't allow for any suitable code formatting (unless the person is mad enough to switch to HTML mode).

WebDynpro editor issue: Clicking on UI element does not open up defn in UI tree

Hello,
We are facing a strange issue with webdynpro editor on one of our SAP Landscape. In change mode when i double click on an UI element in webdynpro layout editor( SE80) the corresponding UI element definition does not open up in the left hand side ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER tree. This functionality works in our ERP system which is on a lower service pack.
I recently discussed this problem with an onsite trainer ( from SAP ) who suggested this feature was taken away in NW Ehp 7.3 onwards to avoid some javascript error in the webdypro layout editor. Can someone confirm this? I have already tried searching servicemarketplace without success. If this feature has been removed i dont want to waste time creating OSS note.
Regards.
Vivek.

We're experiencing the same behaviour since a couple of weeks. Did you already create a message to SAP ? If so I'll wait for you to post the feedback from SAP in answer to this message. If not I'll create one because it becomes hard finding your way in the navigation tree for large views...

Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor Issue

Have downloaded Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor from the Mac App Store onto my Mac Book Pro, set iPhoto preferences to Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Editor, but when trying to open a file from my iPhoto library, the following message appears: "unable to complete your request because of a program error". What can I do to resolve this issue?

Are you able to edit an image file that's not in the iPhoto library with PSE 10?
Also the followinjg has some tips on configuring PSE for use inside iPhoto that you may or may not know about:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
Click to view full size
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 3 - however, if you get the navigation window
Click to view full size
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9/10 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
Click to view full size
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Click to view full size
NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds.

Rich text editor Issues in Experience Manager

Hi,
We are extensively using rich text cartridges for most static pages. We usually copy entire html content into the rich text cartridge source.
It was seen that after saving the content, the editor formats the HTML tags.
For example:
<a href="#">
<div class="bold">Tomboy</div>
<div class="normal">Overalls</div>
</a>
gets converted to
<div class="bold">
<a href="#">Tomboy</a>
</div>
<div class="normal">
<a href="#">Overalls</a>
</div>
Please let us know if anyone has faced similar issues and the fix for the same.
Oracle Endeca 3.1.2 is used for the above example.

Their product is shipped with a Java Bean that you use like any other one. You put the JAR file in your /forms/java folder, add it to the archive and archive_jini tags of your /forms/server/formsweb.cfg file, then you add a Bean Arean to your canvas, filling its Implementation Class with the name of the main Java class.
You have, then methods to set and get the corresponding text in a HTML format.

Email and editor issues

I am having several issues with Elements 11. I cant e-mail photos using the share>e-mail, i have tried to use the adobe e-mail service but it doesn't work and does windows live even work anymore? when I am in the organizer and want to do a full edit it will not open the picture in the editor, it does open the editor but not the picture.

I'm sorry you're having problems with the email services. The issue you're describing is related to the timeout feature of the website; for your security, the website will timeout and require you to login again in order to access information and/or process a request (such as sending an email). The issue of the timeout comes into play when writing a long email or allowing the page to sit without making any movement or changes; typing in the email window does not constitute active movement. What I would suggest is that when writing a long email, use a word processing program (like Microsoft Word) to compose the email, then sign-in to your email account and copy/paste the message. This way you will not lose your email or have to worry about the timeout feature. Also, if you have email programs on your computer (i.e. - Outlook Express, etc.), you can configure those to work with the Verizon email service so you'll no longer have to login to the website for access.
Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!

Pse6 organizer to editor issues

On occasion I cannot open a file in the editor after clicking on it in the organizer. After selecting "full edit" in organizer, the editor will open but
then it stops cold- fully functional, but without my image to edit. Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks Tarun- I was able to open the file using File>open, but when my edits
were completed and I saved the psd format to a jpeg, the jpeg didn't show up in
the organizer. So I got a trial of pse8 and still having same issues- after deleting
preferences file still won't open certain files from organizer. When I try
to drag and drop a file to the editor, a thumbnail moves like it's going to
work, but then the error window says pse editor"cannot open...because it is the wrong
type of file."
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks,
JA

APEX Database Configuration re XML / BI Publisher report issue

Greetings,
I have a problem that would be considered database related.
I am attempting to implement the APEX REPORTS functionality.
The process currently breaks for me when I have over 45 columns in an XML output in the APEX Reports framework. When I say BREAK, this is a very soft break. It just does not return any XML. The system eventually returns “no response” and then continues normally.
Looking closer at the DB, I will see the session hanging on, and not completing with very little information. These sessions will stay active for a very long time… possibly indefinitely. They are running as “APEX_PUBLIC_USER”.
The “current statement” shows as follows…
BEGIN
   DECLARE
      l_bind_values   wwv_flow_global.vc_arr2;
      i               NUMBER                  := 0;
   BEGIN
      FOR c1 IN (SELECT c001, c002
                   FROM wwv_flow_collections
                  WHERE collection_name = 'SET_BIND_VALUES')
      LOOP
         i := i + 1;
         l_bind_values (i) := c1.c002;
      END LOOP;
      FOR c2 IN (SELECT owner
                   FROM wwv_flows
                  WHERE ID = :fb_flow_id)
      LOOP
         wwv_flow_render_query.print_shared_query
                                     (p_flow_id            => :fb_flow_id,
                                      p_format             => 'XML',
                                      p_xml_structure      => :p1112_xml_structure,
                                      p_query_text         => :p1110_query,
                                      p_query_name         => :p1110_name,
                                      p_query_owner        => c2.owner,
                                      p_items              => :p1111_items,
                                      p_values             => l_bind_values
      END LOOP;
   END;
END;I have tested this on APEX.ORACLE.COM and I am un-able to reproduce the same issue. It runs fine. This leads me to believe that I have a database setup issue. The problem is that I don’t know where or how to discover.
Steps (for me) to reproduce:
1- Create a REPORT QUERY which has a fair number of columns (say 50 – 60)
2- Go through the wizard steps and finish
3- Review the Query – Option n the right (under tasks) – click on “Export Report as XML”
Result = session hangs creating a DB session which does not complete.
Footprint:
Application Express: 3.0.1.00.08
Database: 10.2.0.1.0
Connecting via a DAD connector from Oracle Application Server
BI Publisher connection
Suggestions are welcome.
Many Thanks.
--Tim

Just for the off chance that someone else runs into this, I am going to try to brief my findings on the subject related to this issue...
Previously, in the 3.0.1 version of APEX, our system would generate an OS process which would not terminate. Now in 3.1, it seems as though there is an error that is generated when this issue comes into play. I can, when attempting to get the sample XML from the REPORTS definition screen, generate this output when using the DOWNLOAD button:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
SUMMARY
TO RECREATE:
1- CREATE a report with a lot of "columns wide" (about 50).
2- Create a report using the GENERIC LAYOUT setting for REPORT LAYOUT
3- RUN or get XML by using the DOWNLOAD or TEST REPORT buttons from the designer page Report Queries>Edit Report Query
ISSUE: The generic layout has an issue in the code with size....
PROBLEM: When creating a new report - XML is not available in order to create the required layout. Without a layout, XML will not generate. Standard chicken and egg syndrome.
WORKAROUND: Create a DUMMY layout and assign it to the QUERY so that the proper XML output can be created.

Publish Comments Issue

Hello, I've initiated a shared review via Acrobat 9 Pro, running Windows 7. The review is saved to a network folder, with a link location sent out internally rather than via the email service. All of my reviewers are using Reader X, and all have enabled JavaScript within their preferences to allow for the review. However, the issue is that the "publish comments" button works for some users, yet not for others. The issue users are able to view the document, add feedback, and hit the publish button, but the comments are not received by me or any other participants. Strange that only some are having the issue since they are all using the same software versions. Are there additional settings I need to have them set up? Thanks!

I would double check that all users have the right permissions to the shared drive/folder. It appears some users have read & write access (the users that can publish comments), while others have read only access (the users that can add feedback, but nothing seems to come through). To clarify: this would likely be a Windows/network issue handled by the network administrator rather than a setting you would change in Acrobat.
Hope it helps

BI Publisher Caching issues

Hi Folks -
I'm having trouble with a caching problem in BI Publisher. Recently on some reports, after refereshing data in the source database I retrieve results that are not consistent with the source data. The problem has manifested in a couple of different ways.
In one case all the data in 1 column was presented as zeros, even though the database had the correct data (committed to).
In the second case BI publisher was displaying 4 rows for each row of data that was pulled from the database, but the 4 rows were not exact duplicates. Some columns had identicial values to the data in the source, and others didn't have any connection to the source data.
In both cases stopping and starting the BI Publisher service resolved the problem. But since it appears to reappear frequently (I've seen it twice today) I don't feel comfortable with this solution.
Has anyone else had problems with data caching and BI Publisher rendering invalid results in generated reports?
I'm on release 10.1.3.4
This issue has been observed when using XLS templates; I don't know if it occurs with other types of templates.
Thanks in advance for any insights!

Hi ,
In the Data Model --Under the Details tab we will have the option Cache Result ,Can just check that box is enabled...
If tht the case the data will be cached.
Thanks.

AppV 5 SP2 publish\unpublish issues.

Citrix PVS 7.1 - Read Only Image
Appv 5 SP2 (excluding hotfix patch 1 -5) running on Windows 2012 R2.
Microsoft Redirected Profiles
Citrix Profile Manager 5.0
Package Installation Root set to a static disk accessible by all users.
Issue:
We control access to AppV packages using AD security groups which we publish at the user level. If we publish an appv 5 created application without redirected profiles applications will publish and unpublish succesfully. Enabling Redirected Profiles will allow
applications to be published to users succesfully but not unpublished when we remove them from the AD security group.
We have identified that when removing users from the group the application GUID persists in the user RedirectedProfile and two registry keys. Manually deleting the GUID from the users App-V folder will remove this, however the registry keys will return after
logging off and back on again.
We have tried to implement the AppV5 ADM and setup registry & file exclusions but it appears these are being ignored.
I would appreciate any recommendations or suggestions we could try to succesfully exclude these areas from redirecting to ensure the publishing and unpublishing applications to users works correctly.
Many Thanks

Did you exclude the locations from Citrix UPM as per http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/topic/user-profile-manager-5-x/upm-using-with-app-v.html ?
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn774972.aspx talks about some topics to consider when using folder redirection of Appdata.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn659478.aspx has some advice on folder redirections as well, though _that_ might not be realted to your issue.
How do you publish the application list to your users? App-V Publishing Server?
