Hi Warren, Thanks for the info I only ran the repair on Xenapp 4.5 using add remove programs. Its only the SMA service that wont start as all other citrix services are fine which is weird, the citrix print mgmt service is up and running. I have tried to reinstall .Net framework 2.0 but this hasn't helped either, and I just ran the tool for citrix print manager and this hasn't helped the SMA service start? The event ID reads as 'Could not start the Citrix SMA Service on Local Computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion'. Any other ideas?

The two article that relate to that are http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX113554 http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX113555 The latter article outlines the permissions required for that account so it might be worth starting there. Are their any other Citrix services that don't start. -- Warren Simondson Ctrl-Alt-Del IT Consultancy Pty Ltd Website: http://www.ctrl-alt-del.com.au On Fri, Jul 17th, 2009 at 10:54 AM, alan tropper <alan.tropper@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Generator Microsoft Word 11 (filtered medium) Hi, > > I have cloned a virtual citrix server for a template which I have > done before without any issues, my cloned template went without any > issues but now when I run Chfarm to add my server back into the farm > the SMA service wont start but everything else is working fine. > > The SID has been changed on the server but other then that it' s the > same config as before, any ideas? > > I have tried the repair setting which failed on the service too, my > set up is XenApp 4.5 Windows 2003 with datastore on SQL. > > Thanks!! > > Al > > Alan Tropper > > ************************************************ For Archives, RSS, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: //www.freelists.org/list/thin Follow ThinList on Twitter http://twitter.com/thinlist Thin List discussion is now available in blog format at: http://thinmaillist.blogspot.com Thinlist MOBILE Feed http://thinlist.net/mobile ************************************************ ************************************************ For Archives, RSS, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: //www.freelists.org/list/thin Follow ThinList on Twitter http://twitter.com/thinlist Thin List discussion is now available in blog format at: http://thinmaillist.blogspot.com Thinlist MOBILE Feed http://thinlist.net/mobile ************************************************
