AdminStudio 2022 | 23.0 | Application Manager

ACE204 checks whether two or more packages have the same package GUID. If two packages have the same package GUID, they cannot be deployed simultaneously as separate packages. ACE204 can be run against an App-V source package and against only an App-V target package.

Message

Package [PACKAGE_NAME] has a Package GUID that conflicts with package [PACKAGE_NAME]

Background

If two or more packages have the same package GUID, an error is generated.

Resolution

Manual Fix

If you are creating an upgrade package that can update earlier versions of the virtual package, the package GUID should stay the same.

If you are creating a new package that can be deployed simultaneously as another package, the package GUID in one of the packages must be changed. To change the package GUID, open the App-V package in the Virtual Package Editor and save the package as a new package.
