Reporting
bugs and issues. |

Ideally
we would like 2 things for any failing case: |
1.
Trace files for the failing situation. Trace files record
everything the application does and can often help us pinpoint
problems without needing to reproduce the issue here.
|
|
How to
produce a trace file: |
-
Before executing your Thinstalled application, please execute the
program "Log Monitor". If you are testing your virtualized app on
another PC, Log monitor can be run from a network share without
installation. |
- Run
your Thinstalled app until it fails or operates differently from
the native version. At this point use the task manager to kill the
application if a error message has appeared. By terminating the
application soon after the error occurs, it limits the amount of
extra information that needs to be recorded and sifted.
|
|
|
2. We
would like to be able to reproduce the problem here. To do this we
will need a ZIP of your Thinstall package and detailed instructions
on what to do if the problem does not occur on immediate startup.
You can attach the ZIP file to your support ticket using the web
interface or upload it using ftp to thinstall.com (user/pass =
thinstall/thinstall). When creating the ZIP file, we do not need
the "bin" directory since that is easy to recreate here, but we do
need the project files produced by SetupCapture. |
|
If you
can't send us the package files, the trace often provides enough
clues to determine what is happening. A few common reasons people
are not able to send us their captured package files:
|
-
Package files contain confidential information |
-
Application requires a server component and the error does not
occur until after connecting to the server |
