Microsoft excudes Java in SP4 so you are correct. Install with SP3 first. You can then install SP4 then FR3. thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: I am setting up a new Citrix server and tried to install FR3. I keep getting an error about the MS Java Virtual Machine. The error says the MS Virtual machine you are attempting to install is a protected system component and can only be updated with a later release of the operating system or a service pack. I have looked on both Citrix and MS sites and found some articles that reflect a slipstreamed CD to install from. That is what I am using. The CD has SP 4 built into it, it is a select CD from MS. From what I gathered the only way to fix this issue is to rebuild the server with SP3 on it then either install FR3 first or install SP 4 and then install FR3. Is there any other way around this.
