Installation Manager should work in that scenario, i.e. it would capture the
changes that are made during the install and then replicate them on the
target server.

Its not the customer so much as the developer.  The issue I'm faced with,
and I'm sure others of you will run across this eventually, is that the
developer is using a 16-bit installer to install their 32-bit app.  The app
would work fine if we could get it installed.  

 

I wonder..what about installing the application on a 32 bit server and using
wise or some other packaging program (maybe even installation manager) to
capture the installation an re-package as a 32-bit install program?  Might
work right?

Cole.

if they must have 64 bit, run the app in a VM.

No and No. There is no 64 bit version of the Softgrid client.  Even when one
is available, your 16-bit apps will not run.  The 64-bit implementation of
Windows 2003 simply does not support 16 bit.

Hello All,

 

Does anyone know if Softricity will run on 64-bit Windows?  Also, can you
run 16-bit applications inside of softricity?  Or, another way of asking
this is to say that I have a customer that has an application with a 16-bit
installer.  Would it be possible to install this application into Softricity
and then publish it via 64-bit Citrix and Windows 2003? 

 

Cheers,

Cole.
