hello,
i am doing some troubleshooting for a task sequence.
At this moment an application-installaton stops the task sequence process.
Are there any possiblities to skip the installation of this application so the process of the task sequence go futher?

Yes, it is possible but it depends on you you are calling the application.
If you are calling the Application in the CustomSettings.ini eg:
Applications001={1D7DF331-47B7-472C-87B3-442597EC2F7D}
Applications002={9d2b8999-5e4d-4f3d-bb05-edaaf4fe5628}Then you can just comment it out by putting a ' in front of the line. eg:
Applications001={1D7DF331-47B7-472C-87B3-442597EC2F7D}
'Applications002={9d2b8999-5e4d-4f3d-bb05-edaaf4fe5628}You may have selected a single application in the task sequence. In that case, you can edit the step and select the button' disable this step'.

Please explain how you are calling the Application and I can explain exactly how to disable that Application.
I'm asking this because there are a number of ways to kick off an application.

No, is the application being called in the customsettings.ini(there would be a list eg Application001={guid number}?
Look in the task sequence and examine the Install Applications step. It could be there.
Its very easy to disable or skip an application. Just need to know where/how its being called.

Hello Andrew,
application is not called from cs.ini.
In all ts, i have the option set to install multiple applications.
When doing a deployment the applications for installation are manually marked.

OK - sounds like you figured it out.
You can simply remove the offending application from the task sequence step.
After that you can examine the application setup command line and diagnose it.

You can go to particular application task sequence. Go to option tab and select the "Continue on error" option.
