Hi,

We are currently performing testing on our upgraded SL2015CU2 environment. The forms all open but we are experiencing issues with using Crystal Reports (error message below).

We use the following to deploy software using Citrix:

Citris XenApp 7.6

Microsoft App-V 5 Server

Therefore our Microsoft Dynamics SL 2015 application will be published through Microsoft App-V Server, users launch the application from the Citrix server. It’s not a local installation, instead streamed from App-V. We suspect the error is being caused by App-V. Has anyone successfully deployed Dynamics SL 2015 using App-V?

Any other information on gotchas and work arounds for using Citric would also be appreciated.

After further investigation it appears that Crystal is not compatible with App-V. Something to do with Crystal being a local install and App-V using virtual logic resulting in App-V not being able to find Crystal.

We have reverted to Terminal Services for SL.

RE: SL2015 Citrix deployment

I haven't seen an App-V deployment, but I have plenty of Citrix deployments. It almost always comes down to the selected printer being valid from the context of the session on the user's machine.

Try making sure "Use Windows Default" is selected in Printer Setup and try again.
