Management Console on Windows Server 2008

We are currently in the process of testing new Xen App server v5.0 and v6.0

I have installed XenApp v5.0 on a Windows Server 2008 64-bit server. Installation went fine, without any errors. The problem is that once the installation was successfully finished, Citrix Access Management Console won’t start when I’ve tried to start it from the Start Menu.

Solution:

Solution depends on whether the Citrix Access Management Console takes more than 2 minutes to start, or if the Access Management Console won’t start at all.

If the Management Console takes more than 2 minutes to load, please do the following:

On 32-bit systems, create a config file named “C:\Windows\System32\mmc.exe.config”

On 64-bit systems, create a config file named “C:\Windows\SysWOW64\mmc.exe.config”

Add the following contents in the file:

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?>
<configuration>
<runtime>
<generatePublisherEvidence enabled=”false” />
</runtime>
</configuration>

if, on the other hand, Citrix Management Console won’t start at all, please do the following:

Solution 1:

Open Start | Run | mmc.exe

From the File menu, select Add/Remove Snap-In, and add the Citrix Access Management Console

Save the console to the desktop for later use (File | Save As)

Solution 2:

Alternatively, we can use Windows Explorer to open Access Management Console

To locate this file:

For English, open the file “cmi20.msc“. For another language, open the folder of that language, and then open the file “cmi20.msc” in that folder.

You can also right click on the file and select to ‘send a shortcut to desktop‘, to avoid navigating each time to above specified paths.
