Distributing an application when using the NAL Browser view set to "table view" will give a script error, if the application has a dependent app that's associated to the user/workstation, but is not currently displayed.

Resolution

For ZDM6.5: Fixed in AxNalServer.dll (packaged in ZfDAgent.msi and zfdplugin.cab) dated 26 Jul 2006 or newer in ZENworks 6.5 Desktop Management SP2 IR1 or newer found athttps://www.novell.com/support.

For ZDM7: Fixed in ZENworks 7 Desktop Management Service Pack 1 Interim Release 3a, available at https://download.novell.com

Additional Information

To duplicate:
1. Create two apps, make one dependent upon the other
2. associate one app to the user, and the second (dependent app) to the user's OU
3. Edit myapps to use table view
4. Launch myapps, click on the plus sigh next to the tree name on the left to open the tree, and click on the user.
5. You should now see just the applications associated directly to the user.
6. Click on the new application (if it's a previously installed application, click on verify instead)
