SYMPTOMS
When you configure a shared program to Run Local Copy If Present, Program Group Control (PGC) still runs the one-time installation, even though a local copy of the shared application is present.



WORKAROUND
To resolve this problem, contact Microsoft Technical Support to obtain the following fix, or wait for the next Systems Management Server service pack.

This fix should have the following time stamp:      7/14/98   7:27pm         107,936 Appsta16.exe (Intel) 7/14/98  7:26pm         102,320 Appsta95.exe (Intel) 7/14/98  7:25pm         102,320 Appsta32.exe (Intel) 7/14/98  1:52am         208,144 Appsta32.exe (Alpha) NOTE: With the hotfix installed, double-clicking the icon for the shared application generates the following PGC message:

Could not start ''

The one-time installation is not run. To run the shared application, the local copy of the application will need to be completely removed.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.2. A supported fix is now available, but has not been fully regression tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next service pack that contains this fix. Contact Microsoft Technical Support for more information.
