[THIN] Re: Streaming MYOB

Hi James

We have thrashed MYOB Premier 12 with every possible angle with regards to streaming and we
were only able to break it in three scenarios with the error you are getting:

1. When we enabled OFFICELINK TEMPLATES and OUTLOOK SYNC during the install, which of
course meant we had office 2007 installed on the profiling machine (some what a no-no in
profiling but acceptable in some cases).
2. As per the first scenario, but office on the Citrix Server had Office 2007 installed in a different
location to the profiling machine.
3. We built a new profiling machine with nothing on it and profiled MYOB but linked our Office
2007 profile to the MYOB profile package and included OFFCELINK templates and OUTLOOK
SYNC.

Every other scenario we ran which removed the officelink templates and outlook sync from the
installed worked everytime and happily opened the CleaWater Company DB without issue when
Streamed to a Citrix PS 4.5/ Xenapp 5.0 server.

In all tests, we ran as a basic domain user with no elevated privileges. When we published the
Streaming App, we even ran it with the "use least privileged user account" setting on and it
worked well in all cases except for the 3 listed. We also did not enable offline access (naturally).

We also used Office 2003 and the same errors occured with Officelink templates and outlook
sync on.

We did a quick install when building the profile with Profiler 1.2, so nothing special there.

So after all the playing/ testing we did, and it was a fun time for my staff, I guess I'm saying
that the Office components of MYOB may be the problem in your scenario. Let me know if any of
this is helpful. In most cases we had MYOB 12 Premier working like a charm with both the
clearwater DB on another network share and a live company DB.

Cheers
