In our environment memberships to applications are granted through group membership and Citrix PNA allowed the user to 'roam' from computer to computer only displaying the applications they have access to, as opposed to a bunch of applications they do not have access with the onus on them to pick and choose the correct applications. We were not able to do so with the earlier versions of Receiver 4 because things like sort icons into custom folders on the desktop and Start Menu.

Time has marched and we've been tasked with getting Receiver 4+ working the Windows 7/8/10 rollout. We have standardized the environment on mostly Citrix Receiver 3.3 and some 3.4. These farms utilize a Citrix Webinterface 5.4.2 frontend for web interface and PNA. At this point in the migration we have around 5-10 applications left on 4.5 to move, with around 400-450 on the 6.5 farms and probably around 20-30 or so on the 5.0 farms. We've been migrating the applications off the Presentation Server farms and are moving them to XenApp 6.5.
The 6.5 and 5.0 farm also have a nearly identical test farm. The environment I'm working in is a mix of XenApp 6.5, 5.0 and Presentation Server 4.5. Whether that increases/decreases stability would be something you'd have to test. There is a potential issue to be aware of, this will force IE to use the same process as the launcher for tabs, as opposed to spanning new processes. So this key *could* be used to force IE to be 64bit. Deleting or changing this value will default IE to 32bit. If the REG_DWORD is 0x0 it will always force IE to be 64bit. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\TabProcGrowth (or HKLM) It turns out there is a registry key you can set that will force IE to ALWAYS be 64bit: Microsoft does not allow or provide a way to force a 64bit default for IE on Windows 7. I then exited IE and browsed to the Internet Explorer folder (C:\program files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe) and attempted to launch iexplore.exe from there.
Currently, Citrix does not provide a 64bit plugin to IE so it won't run and it won't be detected. Without the *32, Internet Explorer is running in 64bit mode. Installing Oracle 11G to the default 'recommended' directory will fail if you move your PackageInstallationRoot to a different drive.

I also believe that when expanded out it uses the full path with spaces as opposed to the 8.3 path. I have not had the ability to confirm that and will continue this post with what I know works. This was a known/reported issue with AppV 5SP2 HF4 that was marked as 'fixed' by Microsoft for SP3+. The sequenced application would be broken.

This *maybe* fixed now, but I experienced issues with trying to install Oracle 11g to the 8.3 folder structure to place it under "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)". On Windows systems, if the path to your Java installation includes a space character, you must provide the path in DOS 8.3 format, as shown in the previous example. Oracle 11G only allows paths without spaces and special characters. In my attempts to sequence Oracle 11G on AppV5 I came across a few issues and have come up with solutions that work for various applications that rely on this tool. How do you sequence Oracle 11G R2 on AppV5? When I procmon on 'BrokerAgent.exe' I see a few curious entires that maybe associated with ' System.NullReferenceException' (aka, not found) and those are some permissions stating that access is denied to some registry keys and/or some 'Name Not Found' on some CLSID items.Īpparently this is a fun topic. I'm not convinced this is the issue so I soldiered on. Googling the WCF errors with HTTP/1.1 and Error 503 results in lots of information on reconfiguring your IIS. Unfortunately, this CTX article gives little to no details on event 1003 and is more of a shotgun attempt at solving issues as opposed to a nice, precise, surgical solution.įrom the EventID 1003 we can see the Citrix Desktop Service is trying to reference WCF services and it has failed.Ĭitrix offers a tool called XDPing to try and diagnose issues, I ran it and had it return the following: Exception 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' of type 'System.NullReferenceException' Refer to Citrix Knowledge Base article CTX119736 for further information.įailed to start WCF services. If the problem persists please perform a 'repair' install action or reinstall the Citrix Virtual Desktop Agent. The Citrix Desktop Service failed to initialize communication services required for interaction between this machine and delivery controllers. However, when I 'Stop' the Citrix Desktop Service the Application event log gives up a few more details: Restarting the Citrix Desktop Service and checking the 'Application' Log for 'Citrix Desktop Service' yields only event ID 1028 - "The Citrix Desktop Service is starting."
