Hi Matthew,
 
While there are obviously a number of differences betwen remote (rdp/ica) and 
local (console) session environments, the fun part is finding out what's 
important in your case.
 
The first comment is that it's unlikely you'll get any useful support from 
Timberline. 
 
It's also unlikely that XP FR3/SP4 would have caused the problem, whereas the 
original Win2k Post SP4 rollup caused havoc in some instances.
 
There are a couple of things you can try that might point you in the right 
direction.
 
Can you reproduce the problem as an administrator?
 
If you can, put your session in "install" mode (change user /install), run up 
Timberline and see if the problemit still happens when you exit.
 
regards,
 
Rick

Subject: [THIN] Application Error

 

I have an application called Timberline installed on Windows 2000 SP4, Citrix 
XPA FR3 SP4. Around the time I upgraded to Citrix SP4, Win2K Post SP4 patch, 
and upgraded to the latest version of Timberline I started receiving an error 
when Timberline is closed. I didn't detect any errors because no one reported 
the problem for sometime so I kept upgrading and service packing until 
everything was updated.

 

After a week or two users reported that when closing out of some Timberline 
screens or closing out of Timberline they would receive an error: "The 
Instructions at 0x00ba0b60 referenced memory at 0x00ba0b60. The memory could 
not be read". You click ok on the error message and it does not appear to cause 
any problems. 

 

1- I investigated and found that the error only occurs in an ICA or RDP session 
only. From the console on the server it does not error.

2- I've tried regmon and filemon and neither show any problems that I can tell.

3- I've tried almost everything the vendor has suggested, although they seem to 
have no clue. They have had me try different printers and are now telling me to 
reinstall TCP/IP. 

4- All other applications (Office, IE, Acrobat) are working perfect on the same 
servers.

 

I don't know if this is being caused by a service pack, hotfix, application 
update, or corruption has caused this. I have two servers load balanced and 
they both exhibit the same symptoms so I think corruption is not likely. 

 

Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this? It does appear to be terminal services 
related as it only occurs within ICA or RDP sessions.

 

Thank you!
