[THIN] Windows 2008 / Citrix 5

I hope everyone had a great holiday/happy New Year!

 

We are thinking about some of the work we will be doing this year and are discussing the merits of moving our Citrix boxes to Server 2008. I was curious to hear if anyone has gone down this road yet and if so, what your thoughts are/experience has been? Is this a worthwhile investment of our time? If so, what are the main benefits you would expect? I think we would be looking to use 32-bit to minimize application compatibility problems.

 

Any feedback would be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Chris

Hi George,

If any of the published applications has a leading or trailing blank space as well as two consecutive spaces in the distinguished name it will generate the error(s) you described.

Email me privately if you have any questions.

Subject: [THIN] 100's of XML errors on the WIs

I have 2 Farms that are serviced by 4 load balanced Web Interfaces, they all answer to the same DNS name.  One farm is 4.0 with only 4 servers in it, the other is 4.5 with approx. 35 servers.  The WI machines are 4.6.  I'm seeing the below message in the application logs of each Web Interface every 5 to 10 minutes:

An error of type "IMA" with an Error ID of "0x80000001" was reported by the XML Service at address "http://rus-ctxpress11s:80/scripts/wpnbr.dll [com.citrix.xml.NFuseProtocol.RequestAppData]".  This XML Service transaction failed, but the XML Service has not been removed from the list of active services.

There is one of these for every CPS that is listed as an XML broker.  I've tried the following on all the CPS servers via Citrix's Tech Support suggestion with no luck, Cleared the IMA Local Host Cache, unregistered XML, reregistered XML on port 80 and restarted it.

I've also done a dscheck /Full Servers before the above steps and had 1 hostID with no corresponding MfServer node entry.  After reloading LHC and reregistering XML I get over 30 of them.  I haven't done a /clean with it yet.

Any suggestions on where my issues could be?  Does it appear my Datastore is corrupt in some way?

Any help or hints would be great.

[THIN] Re: Office 2003 sp3 and updates etc

Yup.  Login to your server and run SET from a command prompt.  I had the problem after an application I installed changed the environment variable for Programfiles back to C:\program files.  If not there then do a search in your registry for C:\ and see what you come up with.

Good morning,

I have been updating a single citrix server site over the break with hotfixes and patches etc, I have hit a snag running the Office 2003 sp3 and updates etc.

The server has been remapped to M: and the sp / updates for office baulk on cannot find c:\

Has anyone been able to resolve this quite easily?

I checked the sp3 MSI using /? but no mention of being able to specify the destination location, I also tried using subst which also failed.

Have an excellent new year

Yes I can't remember the registry key right off but there is a key under the office 11 hive in the registry that lists the install directory. Just change that to your cd drive letter and put the office CD in and the updates will work Oh found the kb
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884298  this will fix it.

objExplorer.Navigate "http://URL"  

 

objExplorer.ToolBar = 0

[THIN] Another AV survey

I know we do this every so often, but we are reviewing our AV/Malware for the new year. We are a relatively small organisation, 30-odd servers (Backend and TS). We had Norton, made the mistake of moving to Symantec SEP, and are now looking for a simple, effective, low footprint, AV solution.

 

We are currently inclining to Sophos. Any experience, positive or negative? Or other appropriate suggestions?

Try uninstall any other Citrix patches you have installed and then go to Add/Remove programs and run a repair on Citrix Presentation server.  Then try R01 again.

Thanks, I've ran MedEvac and dscheck and all seems ok, just de-installed R06
and the PS 4.0 w2k3 farm is functioning normal again... Maybe one server was
corrupting xml traffic, but could not find any clues in the ima store

[THIN] Re: After PSE400W2K3R06 : MPSError type="IMA"0x80000032

Hi,

All seems to be ok regarding the ima store, ran all kind of checks with dscheck and none 'failed'. Looks like uninstalling R06 is the only option at the moment (http://forums.citrix.com/thread.jspa?threadID=240052&tstart=0).

Is your IMA service restarting ok by itself on your data collector and did you happen to install any packages with IMS before you had this problem? It almost sounds like the same problem you have when applying R03 for PS 4.5 if you have corrupted or duplicate jobs only the IMA service would be hung after.

What do you get if you run dscheck /full servers

We use explicit logon default instead of Autologon.

No we did not add more groups to all ID's, I use a baseline account and that
did not change but also dos not see all published app's it is granted to.
