# PUBLISH PACKAGE

For version 4.6, the following option has been added.

<table>
<colgroup>
<col width="50%" />
<col width="50%" />
</colgroup>
<tbody>
<tr class="odd">
<td align="left"><p>/LOGU</p></td>
<td align="left"><p>If specified, output is logged to the specified path name in UNICODE format.</p></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

 

**Important**  
The package must already have been added to the Application Virtualization Client, and the manifest file is required.

To use the **GLOBAL** parameter, the PUBLISH PACKAGE command must be run as local Administrator; otherwise, only **ManageTypes** and **PublishShortcut** permissions are needed.

Publishing without the **GLOBAL** parameter grants the user access to the applications in the package and publishes the file types and shortcuts listed in the manifest to the user’s profile.

Publishing with the **GLOBAL** parameter adds the file types and shortcuts listed in the manifest to the “All Users” profile.

If the package is not global before the call and the **GLOBAL** parameter is used, the package is made global and available to all users.
