08/07/2011 09:00

 

After having some major issues with XenApp 6 on Server 2008 R2 SP1 which were resolved with Hotfixes I have put together some brief notes:

 

Issues:

 

Blank Screen when logging in until desktop is ready.

XenApp Servers refuse to shutdown and hang at the Shuttig Down Screen.

Enable to get any published resouces through Web Interface or Online Plugin - Event ID 30102 "The Citrix servers reported an unspecified error from the XML Service..."

If you have the hotfixes downloaded use this to install them (modify the paths!)

 

:: XenApp 6 Hotfix install

@echo off

setlocal

 

::MetaData

SET MediaDIR=C:\Fix's

Change user /install

pushd %MediaDir%
