This article describes a hotfix package for May 2009 that contains the latest hotfixes for Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.5 Cumulative Update 1.
Note We recommend that you test hotfixes before you deploy them in a production environment. Because the builds are cumulative, each new fix release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous update package. We recommend that you consider applying the most recent fix release that contains the hotfix that you have to have.
This hotfix package addresses the following issues:
When the Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.5 client tries to perform a DC refresh over HTTP or over HTTPS on an IPv6 network, the DC refresh is not completed successfully.
If the %APPDATA% environment variable expands to a UNC path, virtual applications may not always start with application-specific failures.
In environments that have a trust relationship and mapped user accounts between Windows Domain and an MIT Kerberos realm, the Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.5 client cannot log on to a publishing server. Additionally, you receive error 8009030C. You can enable this fix by creating the registry value UseMITKerberos.
Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
Type UseMITKerberos, and then press ENTER.
On the Edit menu, click Modify.
Type 1, and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
Important
With this fix enabled, Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.5 does not correctly publish an application after a DC refresh when you add or remove a user from an Active Directory security group that is used to control access to an application. The user has to log off and then log back on to see the changes.
Running Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.5 in environments that have a trust relationship and mapped user accounts between Windows Domain and MIT Kerberos realm is not supported by this hotfix. In some environments, installing this hotfix may enable this configuration to work. However, this configuration in these environments will not be supported until a future release of Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.5.
