We have been using PAU 1.4 on our PS4.0 farm running on a mix of Win2000 and Win2003 servers for a few months now and it has been working fine. A very useful bit of software.
However, I'm forced to upgrade to new version because of the licence expiry and now it fails..... just as we were starting to rely on this tool too much. We're happy to pay for for a licence if it works. Can I suggest the 1.4 version is still available until new version is stable please.....
PAU 1.4 was uninstalled and the new 4.5.1.6 version installed.
When I run the program it creates the following error:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Is it possible for you to extend our 1.4 licence because it was working fine for us. We have a migration deadline and simply can't wait for a new version.
I need to have 300 published applications migrated to a new farm and 1.4 is still capable of doing this. We are happy to pay for the licence.
Regards.
I've just contacted enginering, and they have agreed to build a '4.0.1.4' version, one without the new features. They will have the version online this weekend!
I'll send you a mail when it's done!
Shirewise,
Thanks for the responce!
The version of Published Applications Utility you use is not for Presentation Server 4.0.
The version numbering changed, so PAU 4.5.1.6 is in fact PAU 1.6 for presentation server 4.5.
Version 4.0.1.6 is not out yet, expect it next week. there are some unexpected troubles converting the 4.5 version to the 4.0 version. I'll keep you informed!
