Shortcut pointing to .cmd not working via PSF Tooling ver 5.0
Environment -
Windows 20H2(OSBuild 19042.1526)
MSIX Packaging Tool 1.2022.110.0
PSFTooling 5.0.0.0
Software - Oracle OAS Client 6.4
Issue with PSF
Application has 3 cmd shortcuts
Installed the software, all 3 cmd shortcuts are launching fine at Installation stage in MXIS Packaging Tool
Launched the PSFTooling 5.0.0.0 went through options 1 - Suggest Fixups, 2 -Determine New App Components for Fixups, 3 - Apply to Proposed Change List, 4 - Execute these changes
Noticed psf got applied for shortcuts (C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\bitools\bin\PsfLauncher1.exe, C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\bin\PsfLauncher2.exe, C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\bitools\bin\PsfLauncher3.exe )
Shortcuts are not launching after psf applied while in monitoring phase and also after package saved and installed , tested with/without closing the psf tool. Collected the MSIX Packaging logs as well
Checked the same in First Launch Tasks stage in MXIS Packaging Tool.
Issue is still the same after completion of msix package. No shortcuts are launching.
Could please guide us where we have gone wrong in applying PSF ?
Thanks ,
Amit

- Amit,
This is expected behavior, it does not indicate an error and your package is expected to be OK if you finish the process.
The PsfLauncher (and other PSF components) may only be executed inside a container, and while you are in the installation/monitoring phase there is not yet a container.
The workflow within the install/monitoring phase should be to install the app, perform any customization of the application (including launching it), and then use PsfTooling.- Hi Tim,
Thanks for the feedback . I agree PSF Launcher is not in container and will save the package after making changes including PSF tool injection and then install/launch .
I will feedback on how it went .
Thanks
Amit
