Had a similar problem with an XPe server, check through your datastore for
entries looking for the old servernames and remove them, then try to drop
them from farm and re-add them

Subject: [THIN] Error after renaming Citrix server - SOLVED


Hello!

I haven't got any answer to my question shown below, neither on this list 
nor from Citrix whose knowledgebase even doesn't mention this error code
519.

Just for the archives the solution in our case (it took me several hours to 
narrow this down):

It was a name resolution problem. It is VERY important that the "backwards" 
DNS resolution (GetNameByAdress) provides the REAL name of the Citrix 
server, not an DNS alias! This has been messed up for some reason in our 
environment, as soon as we corrected this, all licenses and product codes 
show correctly in CMC and no errors occur anymore.

Try a "ping <servername>" and check if the name shown in the ping answer is 
the same you pinged.
