Packaging MS Office 2013 Professional Plus with Thinapp 4.7.3

I can't find the link to package MS Office 2013 but only MS Office 2010 as here.

I'm packaging MS Office 2013 the same way MS office 2010 did and it works.

Some notes to be taken:-

  1. Always run the thinapp with local administrator privilege.
  2. Make sure you modify the config.xml (located on proplusr.ww folder), save it and run the setup in command prompt, e.g.. setup.exe /config c:\tmp\config.xml
  3. I will choose to run thinapp with VMware Fusion/Workstation with SSD and snapshot. This will allow you to easily revert the snapshot anytime you like.
  4. Since the whole Office will be packaged, always select option "Run all from my computer"
  5. Always remember to run the application a couple times after installation
  6. Always remember to activate the license before proceeding with post-scan
I've not installed .net framework as suggested by some blog and the Office 2013 is working. I will run the application and testing to see how it goes. So far, I've thinapp MS office 2013 on Windows 7 32 bit SP1. It run fine in Windows 7 (both 32/64-bit) but failed to run on Windows 8. The error as below:-

VMware VRNI 3.5 NTP is working but not healthy

We have experienced this problem where some of the major services not started. You will not be able to connect to the vRNI via web -> https://<ip_address_of_vrni_platform>>. This probably caused by NTP insync. You need to manually start these services. Login with Consoleuser / and default password if not changed before via venter web console. Run services restart and wait for couple minutes (it took me 5-6 mins). Types of Users  User name  Password  Admin UI  admin@local Set this password in the Activate License window during installation. SSH User  support ark1nc0113ct0r CLI User  consoleuser ark1nc0ns0l3 Note It is recommended that the users change the default passwords immediately after the deployment.  Procedure 1 Navigate to  https://<vRealize Network Insight Platform IP address> .  2 Log in to the product UI with the corresponding user name and password.
