Applications fail to launch with error 04-00000A04 after App-V 4.6 SP1 upgrade

hotfixJust a quick heads up on a new KB article we published today:

=====

Symptom

After upgrading a Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) 4.6 client to App-V 4.6 Service Pack 1 (SP1), applications may fail to launch with the following error:

The Application Virtualization Client could not launch the application you requested.

An unexpected error occurred. Report the following error code to your

System Administrator.Error code 461758B-0F801904-00000A04

The SFTLog.txt may also have entries similar to the following:

[09/22/2011 13:11:42:814 TRAY ERR] {tid=101:usr=administrator}
The Application Virtualization Client could not launch the application you requested.

An unexpected error occurred. Report the following error code to your System Administrator.

Error code: 461758B-0F801904-00000A04

Cause

This may happen if the DDELaunchMSICommand or LaunchMSICommand registry values under the following keys are incorrect:

For 32-bit systems: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\UserInterface

For 64-bit systems: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\wow64node\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\UserInterface

Resolution

To resolve this issue, edit the registry key to reflect the correct execution string.

For 32-bit clients, edit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\UserInterface. For 64-bit clients, use HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\wow64node\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\UserInterface.

Note that Configuration Manager clients use a different string than App-V clients. If in doubt, check the value of DDELaunchCommand. If it references VappLauncher.exe, Configuration Manager integration is enabled. If it references sfttray.exe, the client is an App-V VAS client.

The correct values are:

Configuration Manager 2007 clients with virtualization support enabled:

Value: DDELaunchMSICommand

Type: REG_SZ

Data: @GcbJDuU`8Dt4ql_+RSRVirtualApp>=T+i$+PP-9,9v}Si8@4X /launch "<APP>"

Value: LaunchMSICommand

Type: REG_SZ

Data: @GcbJDuU`8Dt4ql_+RSRVirtualApp>=T+i$+PP-9,9v}Si8@4X /launch "<APP>"

App-V VAS clients:

Value: DDELaunchMSICommand

Type: REG_SZ

Data: 3OqYobt01?4VH[gf8qiBRelease_Merge_Modules>OO5hSGuIH?xoVn&wQ(Ex "<APP>" <DDE>

Value: LaunchMSICommand

Type: REG_SZ

Data: 3OqYobt01?4VH[gf8qiBRelease_Windows_Desktops>gNkKPt-'NA05f@sdSnKH /launch "<APP>"

More Information

This is a .reg file exported from an ConfigMgr client:

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\UserInterface]
"AppIcon"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Application Virtualization Client\\sftcmcres.dll,-484"
"TypeIcon"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Application Virtualization Client\\sftcmcres.dll,-483"
"DDELaunchMSICommand"="@GcbJDuU`8Dt4ql_+RSRVirtualApp>=T+i$+PP-9,9v}Si8@4X /launch \"<APP>\""
"DDELaunchCommand"="\"C:\\Windows\\CCM\\VappLauncher.exe\" /launch \"<APP>\""

"LaunchMSICommand"="@GcbJDuU`8Dt4ql_+RSRVirtualApp>=T+i$+PP-9,9v}Si8@4X /launch \"<APP>\""

This is a .reg file exported from a 32-bit 4.6 SP1 VAS client:

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\Client\UserInterface]

"AppIcon"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Application Virtualization Client\\sftcmcres.dll,-484"

"TypeIcon"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Application Virtualization Client\\sftcmcres.dll,-483"

"DDELaunchMSICommand"="3OqYobt01?4VH[gf8qiBRelease_Merge_Modules>OO5hSGuIH?xoVn&wQ(Ex \"<APP>\" <DDE>"

"DDELaunchCommand"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Application Virtualization Client\\sftdde.exe\" \"<APP>\" <DDE>"

"LaunchCommand"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Application Virtualization Client\\sfttray.exe\" /launch \"<APP>\""

"LaunchMSICommand"="3OqYobt01?4VH[gf8qiBRelease_Windows_Desktops>gNkKPt-'NA05f@sdSnKH /launch \"<APP>\""

Note the difference in syntax due to the escape characters. Note also that the paths to various executables may be different in your environment.
