You may need to install the following on each box also:
Microsoft C++ Redistributable 2005 (not 2008)
Enable network COM+ access (under Windows Components\Application Server)

As with all XenApp updates, Citrix recommends installing in the
following order:
1. Data store server (if indirect)
2. ZDCs (both primary and backup)
3. XML brokers
4. Farm metric servers
5. Farm member servers
From the readme for the hotfix rollup packs.
I would also recommend upgrading your license server to 11.6.1 before
you start the upgrade process.

Hi
So you just installed over the top? Are there any gotchas? I
understand I need to update the farm metric server first. Any other
tips for a seamless upgrade?
Thanks

I have upgraded numerous farms from 4.0 to 4.5 as in-place upgrades and
never had an issue. Not much changes from 4.0 to 4.5. XenApp 5 for
Server 2003 is the same thing as 4.5 FP1.

Hi
Im looking at upgrading my Windows 2003 / Citrix Presentation Server 4
farm to XenApp 4.5. I cannot migrate to new hardware. There are 2
options:
1) Uninstall Citrix Presentation Server 4 and Install XenApp 4.5
2) Install XenApp 4.5 over the top of Citrix Presentation Server 4
Im looking at Option 1 as I feel it may be cleaner. Can anyone
recommend the best way to upgrade and ensure no issues are encountered..
Which option should I go with?
Thanks
Ang
