Hi Gang - We are running into a problem on one of our servers after applying the latest RPCSS patch from Microsoft. The server is running Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition, Metaframe XP FR1. Since installing the patch, published applications aren't working, however, the published desktop *does*. When trying to run the app, all you get is the Initializing, and it dumps out right away, the application never comes up. But the desktop connects and comes up. Which is very strange. We did notice that about the time the patch was installed back on 9/10, the Metaframe COM Server ceased to start, and we can't get it to start at all. We get a 7009 Event ID from Service Control Manager, Timeout (120000 milliseconds) waiting for service to connect. We tried applying a KB article on Citrix's website that the Path variable was set incorrectly and found that it wasn't set at all. We copied over from the known good server and rebooted, but the service still didn't start. That's the kicker to this problem... We do have an identical server with the same setup and patching, only it works properly. Anyone have any good ideas for me? Thanks so much!
