App Volume 3 issue with AppStacks and File Share

Hi all,

I am new to the community but after hours of googling I couldn't find the answer to my question. I installed App Volume 3 Enterprise recently and I was able to configure it (AD, Vcenter, Connect to file share etc.). I just want to mention I don't use vrOps. After installing and configuring App Volume, I captured my first app which as a test was VLC. My understanding is that on the staging machine you need to install The App Volume agent and Appcapture which I did successfully. I ran the command "AppCapture.exe /n VLC" and started the VLC installed. Everything went well, I got the VMDK, VHD and JSON created and using "AppCapture.exe /list "Path to the AppStack"" it listed VLC and all the details were good. After that I transfered all 3 files into the Samba Share that is also connected on my App Volume server. I did a "Sync now" and when I go into "Inventory > Applications" there are no apps listed. I have tried only leaving the VDMK in there and re-adding the file share. Using the SMB name and/or IP of the share and nothing seems to work. App Volume can't see or detect my captured apps. I left the permissions to my Samba share to Full Permissions to Everyone to make sure permissions were not the issue.

I can't find an answer to my question anywhere.....Why does App Volume not see my App Stacks??

Thanks
