We are trying to sequence Sibelius 5.2.5. Installing the application on Vista 32bit Enterprise does not appear to cause any problems. We are using a licence server to restrict the instances of Sibelius running on the network.
Once we try to sequence the applications, the installation appears to go well. When it comes to launching the application during the sequence, it crashes with an error. The DEP notice then pops up to say it has stopped Sibelius.
The error details are below:
Problem signature: Problem Event Name: BEX Application Name: Sibelius.exe Application Version: 5.2.5.37 Application Timestamp: 48c8046b Fault Module Name: sftldr.dll_unloaded Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 48a8a7cb Exception Offset: 6fb08601 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Data: 00000008 OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.256.4 Locale ID: 2057 Additional Information 1: bfef Additional Information 2: e8adce1c2b9e7be834b4063ac3c53863 Additional Information 3: bfef Additional Information 4: e8adce1c2b9e7be834b4063ac3c53863
If we ignore this and complete the sequencing process, the virtualised application crashes with the same error on launching.
We have tried disabling Data Execution Prevention, but when sequencing, it appears that the sequencing application re-enables DEP.
Since the application installs correctly without App-v, is App-v doing something wrong here?

Well its not disabled. Not to familier with Vista, but you can always ensure that the bios-settings also disabled DEP (or NX Protection - or what they call it..)
One obvious thing to try here is to NOT launch Sibelius at all (while installing or specifying shortcuts) during Sequencing, have you tried that approach?
Of course, you'll lose FB1/FB2 distinction but sometimes some applications just don't like to be launched during Sequencing..
Since the error is pointing to sftldr.dll, I inclined tp say that the Sibelius doesn't play well together with injections/hooking that App-V is doing to it.

Thank you ksaunam. Could you expand on that. Why is sftldr significant? Anthony Sheehy - .net
