Environment
Reflection Desktop (including Pro, for X, for IBM, or for UNIX and OpenVMS) 16.0 or higher
Situation
Reflection Desktop does not load when deployed as a Published Windows application and the error "The installation
data associated with this product is damaged. Please reinstall the
product." will appear. If the WIXError.txt file in the users %temp% folder is examined the
contents will indicate "Error 0: WIXMSItl: Bad Data doDecrypt - The operation completed successfully".
Resolution
This issue is currently being evaluated by Micro Focus Development.
Published installs via Group Policy which are published to a user configuration will fail, but Assigned installs work just fine.
The workaround is to install the Reflection Desktop software locally to avoid the issue.
Additional Information
As a comparison to Reflection for IBM 14.1 Multi-Host Professional which doesn't work
either (and in fact, is worse off as the applications crash), it may be
that this may not be supported.
Product Like EXTRA! don't have these
issues when running the shortcuts when installed as a Published application, the product just runs.
