i too was kind of wondering when the Mr. Citrix himself would chime in as well, but I did remember the Webinar, so I figured at some point we would hear something.
And this may sound dumb, but where do I check for the version? thanks Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2014 16:23:14 +0100 Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] Citrix Error- Unable to retrieve published app data From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Was wondering when you'd chime in. I thought that gym instructor had finished you off. Either that or you'd collapsed during your webinar. :-) On 25 June 2014 16:15, Webster <[email protected]> wrote: Fundamentals is very much like Small Business Server. i.e. use the wizards or all hell breaks loose! If you step outside the wizards, all bets are off for a functioning server. I refuse to mess with Fundamentals because of that. Plus, Fundamentals is a dead product. If you are running Fundamentals 2 or 3, that product went EOL a year ago. Fundamentals 6 has given a reprieve from its death sentence and its EOL is now 24-Aug-2016. http://www.citrix.com/support/product-lifecycle/product-matrix.html Fundamentals 6 was the end of the line for that product family.

We added the users to the local Distributed COM Group (Domain Administartor & Support Account) Thank you for this pointer! 2. Started the Quick Start Application using the following command line "quickstart.exe –logfile c:\logfile.txt –runui" and checked the logfile.txt file for any issues (as per CTX113326). We found that one of the Published applications had an invalid user SID. Used Management console and removed the invalid user account from the application and saved the Published application. Tested the quick start application in "normal" mode and all is working.

In this config item, you will provide the address of some XenApp servers - XML brokers. These servers basically provide the list of applications and entitlements to a user logging in via the web interface (either web site or services site). That's grossly simplified, but never mind. Are the servers specified here (as XML brokers for the web interface) online and responding (i.e. all Citrix services running)? Do they have any errors in the event logs? Are there any errors in the event logs on the Web Interface server itself?

Little background, this user was recently having the Exchange connection issue with a new phone, and per the guidance of this list I changed his adminCount to 0 via ADSIEdit and it worked perfectly; FastForward he is unable to logon to Citrix fundamentals with the error "you must be granted logon ....... permissions" The user is not only a domain admin, but also a Citrix admin on the box (its 2008TS) and I manually added him specifically to the RD group Naturally I go to quickstart > management> Applications and there it is "Unable to retrieve Published Application Data. Ensure that the master server is online and that the Citrix MFCOM and Citrix IMA services are running" Per some articles I launch quickstart with logging enabled and find 6/23/2014 23:35:41:7 : TaskHelper.GetInternalUrl : Failed to talk to CAE Service 06/23/2014 23:35:41:7 : TaskHelper.GetInternalUrl : Citrix.IMA.IMAException: Failure Here is where I suspect the problem lies 06/23/2014 23:35:50:710 : PublishableItem.FindAccounts : Account: 'DOMAIN\Affected_User' - [S-1-5-21-NNNNNNNNN-NNNNNNNNN-NNNNNNNN-NNNN] 06/23/2014 23:35:50:773 : PublishableItem.FindAccounts : Finding accounts for application: 'Applications/e-mail'... 06/23/2014 23:35:52:945 : ApplicationsManagementPage.RefreshComplete : An error occured while retrieving application details 06/23/2014 23:35:52:945 : ApplicationsManagementPage.RefreshComplete : System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.
