App-v 4.5 sp1 error
App-v 4.5 sp1 error
- I am streaming Virtual Applications from an App-V server (have been since SoftGrid 4.1)
Testing the SP1 update, I find that the 4.5 pre-SP1 client connects without a problem, but the SP1 clients produce an 0E-00002008 error (45242F4-0FA10B0E-00002008.) The only documentation on this is at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=931579 which would seem to indicate a problem with drive letter changes. Yes we do change the drive letters, (we already use Q for something else.) But after 5 restarts the 4.5 sp1 client refuses to connect to the 4.5 sp1 Server.
What appears to be happening is that the virtual drive is being created as Q regardless of what is set in the registry (Which is V by the way.) Anyone have any tips on this?

- Okay, I figured it out. With 4.5 (pre-SP1) we had to overwrite the CurrentDriveLetter key as well in order for it to work. Doing this after SP1 rocks the boat.
Cool, something that does what it says on the box... Well done MS.

- Hello,
I would double check what you set during deployment and how this effects the installation.
Did you perform a silent installation or a manual one?
/Znack I use a silent installation and then use GPO to apply registry settings afterward. The specific one in question is
Hive HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Key path SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\AppFS Value name DriveLetter Value type REG_SZ Value data V:
This works happily pre-SP1.
