<td>Hello,</p>
<p>I have two Citrix Servers set up for developmen<wbr/>t and testing purposes, one running MetaFrame PS 3.0 and the other using Presentati<wbr/>on Server 4.5 (Enterpris<wbr/>e).</p>
<p>I have a WPF-based applicatio<wbr/>n that I deploy through Citrix with which I have encountere<wbr/>d a problem in the following circumstan<wbr/>ces:</p>
<p>If I log on to my server as an administra<wbr/>tor, using a RDP-based connection<wbr/>, and run the software it will work fine.</p>
<p>If I then log in as a restricted<wbr/> (&#8217;normal&#8217;) user through an ICA client (either to a desktop or straight to the published applicatio<wbr/>n) and run the program, I am left with a flickering<wbr/> screen and the mouse pointer continuall<wbr/>y centralise<wbr/>s itself.  I can only kill this process off from the client; trying to do so through an admin seems not to kill it off!</p>
<p>Alternativ<wbr/>ely, if were to log in to an administra<wbr/>tion account using an ICA-based client I can successful<wbr/>ly run the software.  If I then go back to my normal user log-in on the ICA client, the software will run without any of the problems previously<wbr/> described.</p>
<p>I have done a fair bit of research in to this problem (debt of gratitude to the sysinterna<wbr/>ls guys) and have found that the program will always fail while trying to determine the level of Direct3D support the system has to offer.</p>
<p>While determinin<wbr/>g this, Direct3D will examine the file $(WINDIR)/<wbr/>system32/d3d<wbr/>9caps.dat.  It seems if the informatio<wbr/>n held in this file does not relate to the current system setting it will try to regenerate<wbr/> it.  When running under RDP, the system will generate one version of this file and another when run under ICA.  In the first scenario described above that exhibits the problem, the restricted<wbr/> user&#8217;s ICA session still tried to generate this file but it doesn&#8217;t have the necessary permission<wbr/>s to do so.  It seems a d3d9caps.t<wbr/>mp file is created first before the original is deleted and the .tmp file renamed.  It is while trying to do this final step that the program will hang, continuall<wbr/>y trying to perform this action.  (Amusingly<wbr/>, it seems D3D will create the temp file in the users temp folder if it can&#8217;t write to sys32)</p>
<p>Obviously,<wbr/> I don&#8217;t want to allow any user to update what&#8217;s in $(WINDDIR)<wbr/>/System32 so changing permission<wbr/>s on this folder isn&#8217;t an option.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t dictate either that everyone should only use ICA; WPF/Direct<wbr/>X is used by several programs, so this program isn&#8217;t the only one that may suffer from this problem.</p>
<p>Further to this, it seems if the $(WINDIR)/<wbr/>system32/d3d<wbr/>9caps.dat isn&#8217;t present, an ICA-based client will not try to regenerate<wbr/> it; it&#8217;s only if it is there and wrong that I see the problem.  Unfortunat<wbr/>ely, routinely removing this file offers no guarantees<wbr/> of successful<wbr/>ly running the software for the same reasons as above - WPF/Direct<wbr/>X shared by many programs, any one of which may cause it to be regenerate<wbr/>d.</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;ve run out of options and would like to see if anyone has anything more to suggest as possible workaround<wbr/>s (or preferably<wbr/> fixes!) for this problem.  Thanks, Nick.</td>

<td>Hi Ranger,</p>
<p>Unfortunat<wbr/>ely this suggestion<wbr/> doesn&#8217;t appear fix the problem.  Regardless<wbr/> of whether hardware accelerati<wbr/>on is enabled or not for WPF, the d3d9caps.d<wbr/>at file still gets generated and it is this that is the real cause of the problem when using WPF applicatio<wbr/>ns from restricted<wbr/> accounts.</p>
<p>Thanks for getting in touch,</p>

<td>Just as an FYI I am working on this case with Microsoft.<wbr/> The issue is with where that file is written. In later versions of windows(20<wbr/>08/Vista) its placed in the users profile directory.<wbr/> In earlier versions (2003) its placed in the %WINDIR%\s<wbr/>ystem32. We are hoping to get a backport of the changes made in 2008 %26#38; Vista to 2003. I will keep you posted of the progress.</td>

<td>There is a simple workaround<wbr/> for this issue, </p>
<ul class="jive-dash"><wbr/></p>
<li>keep a copy of the file in a folder like c:\d3d9 </li>
<li>delete<wbr/> it from system32</li>
<p><wbr/></p>
<li>put the following batch file in the startup folder or in the login script:</li>
<p><wbr/>
</ul>
<p>
if exist c:\d3d9\d3<wbr/>d9caps.dat copy c:\d3d9\d3<wbr/>d9caps.dat &#8220;%UserProf<wbr/>ile%\Local Settings\A<wbr/>pplication Data\*.*&#8221;.<br />
if exist c:\windows<wbr/>\system32\d3<wbr/>d9caps.dat del c:\windows<wbr/>\system32\d3<wbr/>d9caps.dat.</p>
<p>the second line is not mandetory,<wbr/> it&#8217;s just to insure that the file gets deleted from the system32 folder. It will return an error when run by a none admin user.</p>
<p>So far I haven&#8217;t seen any side effects of having all users using a copy of the same d3d9caps.d<wbr/>at file. A programmer<wbr/> with WPF experience<wbr/> maybe able to elaborate on that.</p>

This problem appears when you set a bad default printer.
Set some other printer as your default printer and try again.
In my case this is the solutions.

<td>I have a question.  I have 5 Windows 2003 servers with Presentati<wbr/>on Server 3.  I have 4 that are used internally<wbr/> and they are the exact same Dell 6350 servers with same memory etc.  I upgraded one of the servers to SP2 for Windows 2K3.  The server seemed fine for a while.  But a week later its not allowing any connection<wbr/>s to the published app we have.  The message is the familiar one Ive found on here..<br />
&#8220;The Citrix presentati<wbr/>on servers are reporting full load and cannot accept your connection<wbr/> at this time&#8221;.<br />
But none of the answers to those searched results show what to do.  They only ask the question, what load evaluator the person is using.  In my case its a custom one that we&#8217;ve always used.  The issue is that the evaluator on that one server shows that memory is at 100% load.  The server has no users on it and when I did log in with RDP the memory shows its barely being used.  Out  of 5.7K total, it shows 5.2K free.   That specific Load Eval setting for memory says if lower that 10%, report no load and if higher than 90% report full.  <br />
The remaining servers which have all the users today are showing a normal level of memory usage, but this one server is erroring in its memory usage reporting somehow.  At the server it shows the correct level but the evaluator is erroring it out.  Im lost because I never had this happen before.  Other issues sure but our evaluators<wbr/> and loads is something that never had an issue.  Any replies would be appreciate<wbr/>d.  <br />
There was one solution posted that said to get a hotfix rollup but Im getting a different message when trying to install that.</td>

Where was this determined<wbr/> that these keys were the ones that needed to be changed?</p>
<p>The reason I ask is because I STILL have issues with how IE is presented to users.  When I look at the &#8220;add-ons currently loaded&#8221; during a session for a user, it doesn&#8217;t have any flash and that&#8217;s after I&#8217;ve made sure I installed it while in INSTALL mode and changed these registry keys.</p>

<td>I have a script that is supposed to launch an applicatio<wbr/>n, wait 60 seconds to insure that the window will be up and ready for input, make sure it&#8217;s the active window, then pass through Username, input a Tab, Password, then input an Enter to complete the process.  It will not recognize the TAB and ENTER special sequences and smooshes the username and password together w/o a tab, and doesn&#8217;t do the enter.  I&#8217;ve tested this with two different Citrix-dri<wbr/>ven applicatio<wbr/>ns and both of them do not recognize the sequences.<wbr/>  I&#8217;ve also tried this on three different machines: all running Windows XP Pro. w/ SP2 - as I know that VB behavior can vary, even among the same OS version from past experience<wbr/>.  I&#8217;m not VBscript guru by any stretch, so a &#8220;proper&#8221; or better way to accomplish<wbr/> this same task would be great.</p>
<p>I can use the same exact script below (outside of the app it runs and AppActivat<wbr/>e sequence of course!) to open up a locally installed version of notepad.ex<wbr/>e and it utilizes the TAB and ENTER sequences just fine.</p>
<p>VBscript code is as follows:</p>
<p>~~~~~~~~<br />
Set WshShell = WScript.Cr<wbr/>eateObject(&#8221;<wbr/>WScript.Shel<wbr/>l&#8221;)</p>
