I want to thinapp an application but when i start the thinapp: i got an error:
Fatal Application Exit : RelaunchUsingCreateProcess::CreateProcess failed
When i go to the %ProgramFilesDir% and then open the application it wil start. When i look in de package.ini i cannot see anything strange?
Can somebody point me to the right direction for a sollution? or solve problem.
Sounds like you do not have WorkingDirectory= specified for the Entry Point.. Try to add it..

Can you create an empty ThinApp package using only CMD.EXE as an Entry Point. Launch the CMD and launch the locally installed version of the application from this CMD prompt. This will load the application via our runtime and indicate if we have issues with the application related to our runtime or not..
To create an empty project simply launch Setup Capture and click next, next all the way through. Not capturing anything..
I have created a package with de cmd. I have launched the phisical application true te thinapped CMD and the application worked.
But when launched thinapped application true the thinapped CMD i got the same error message.
Is there a posibilty to view this runtime?
The test was to run the natively installed application from a empty ThinApp package. Utilizing the ThinApp runtime. Launching the old ThinApp package via this CMD is not going to help.
This test indicates that there is no serious issues running this application via our runtime. Which is good.
Next step I would do is to in your project folder (during dirty test, meaning the application is still locally installed) move the whole %SystemRoot% and %SystemSystem% folders into the Support folder and rebuild. This will keep those folders and there content from being included in the virtual environment. This way if the application starts we know there is something in those folders causing the issue. Since the application is locally installed will it find the dependencies locally so it should start.
Well i moved both folders to the support folder en build the thinapp. But my application dit nog start i got the same error back as before.
Could i move more folders to that support folder and build it? So i can detemine in wich folder the problem could be in.
I would probably not do that.. Normally what would be of interest is in the Windows folders.
You will just have to do some more basic troubleshooting in order to narrow down the variables.. Have a look here for some tips: http://blogs.vmware.com/thinapp/troubleshooting/
