andyjmorgan / caffeineforcitrixworkspace Goto Github PK

I had Caffeine set to start with my computer. After reboot, I couldn't get a vdi session to trigger from the browser. I quit caffeine and then my vdi sessions can open. My guess is that caffeine started before workspace and maybe it's blocking access to the citrix DLL? Using workspace 2010. Now I just need to trigger caffeine manually after a reboot.

Trying to run CaffeineForCitrixWorkspace with the latest version of Citrix Workspace (2012) doesn't work. Reverting to version 2010 works as a workaround.

I'm not a C# dev but testing manually by inserting Debug.WriteLine statements led me to this line. In my testing, execution just hangs here indefinitely.

I noticed because the system tray icon is unresponsive when the program is in this state and it doesn't work as expected (keep sessions alive). I'll continue to use version 2010 for now; hope this is helpful to anyone else that gets stuck. Thanks for the useful utility!

Getting Messagebox after Start with this Error

Error on Startup
An error occured while registering the ICA CCM Object
OK

Could that be related to using Citrix Workspace from Windows Store?

After updating Citrix Workspace, registry keys need re-adding

This can be a little manual, so I can provide a registry file to re-add the keys. Maybe this would be useful to add to your documentation too. Rename the attached file with extension '.reg' as github does not support uploading of these files. Hope this helps someone, thanks for the neat application.

caffeine_citrix_reg_keys.txt

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Citrix\ICA Client\CCM

This folder is missing when workspace is installed in both the 32bit and 64bit locations. When I wipe all my installations and install receiver, CCM exists.

Please have updated documentation for workspace.

The registry keys are different in this version. By adding the keys the application doesn't work as expected.
