Using XenApp6 on Windows 2008 R2 I have the windows Calculator as a test app. Apps are set to run on the server, and are not streamed to the client. When running Calculator from inside the network it runs as expected.
However, when accessing the app from an external web browser or Citrix Receiver, the client always times out and the Calculator app is not launched. I see incoming traffic on port 1494 (which is open) but there is no response from XenApp.
For both internal and external, I log in as Administrator and can see the citrix management console showing my test Calculator app.
Any ideas why it's timing out and not launching from the internet?
Thanks.
Chris
If the Citrix server's internal IP is being NATted to an external IP you may need to set an alternate address using altaddr on the Citrix server. Try this: Download the ICA file that the Citrix server passes when you launch a published app from a web browser, open it in a text editor, and see what FQDN or IP it is trying to connect to.

I had a Web Server, which is configured with Ubuntu. Some web applications are hosted there and Clients from windows user browse/use those applications through the network. Application accessibility was smoother and faster and also was running without any interruptions.
But all the issues start when I configure the Windows Server and put all the users under a DOMAIN CONTROLLER. Now all the applications accessibility become too slow. Sometimes some pages are not loading at all.
I am mentioning all the IP configurations bellow-
Network Default Gateway: 172.16.0.1/16
Web Server- 172.16.2.2/16
Windows Server (Domain Controller)- 172.16.3.1/16
Using this Windows Server IP as DNS IP for all Client PC and also for the Web server.
Clients IP range: 172.16.1.1 to 172.16.10.254
Please See the Graphical view of my Configuration from the link below:

It was a DNS issue. I restored the Previous DNS settings in all clients and server then everything goes to normal condition.
I need to monitor a http request and response for web site running on remote web server. The web server makes lot of web service call and would like to trace them.
If the web site was running locally, Fiddler traces every web service call request and provides me with a report. Could someone please help me with how the same is possible
*e.g.
If the web application is running locally and calls two web services fiddler shows the total time on statistics. However, if the web application is running on web server hosted on different web server hosted internally (intranet) and I ran fiddler on my machine, I don't get the statistics for each web service call. All I can see is the total time for the aspx page.*
So question is how (if possible) can I trace the statistics of each web services invoked by web application that's running on different machine and fiddler is running on my machine.
Thanks.
You could always use WireShark http://www.wireshark.org/ to catch all the packets, if you are on the same network as the server, that is.
Say you're running a website on port 80 of a machine named WEBSERVER. You're connecting to the website using Internet Explorer Mobile Edition on a Windows SmartPhone device for which you cannot configure the web proxy. You want to capture the traffic from the phone and the server's response.
0.)Start Fiddler on the WEBSERVER machine, running on the default port of 8888.
1.)Click Tools | Fiddler Options, and ensure the "Allow remote clients to connect" checkbox is checked. Restart if needed.
2.)Choose Rules | Customize Rules.
3.)Inside the OnBeforeRequest handler, add a new line of code:
if (oSession.host.toLowerCase() == "webserver:8888") oSession.host = "webserver:80";
5.) navigate to http://webserver:8888
Requests from the SmartPhone will appear in Fiddler. The requests are forwarded from port 8888 to port 80 where the webserver is running. The responses are sent back through Fiddler to the SmartPhone, which has no idea that the content originally came from port 80.
You can setup Fiddler in your machine and set it as a proxy in the web application you want trace. Easy inside a network, not so easy accross the interwebs.
I'm developing an iPhone app that has a network component. I'm developing the app in Java (Google App Engine actually), running on port 8080. And it works, when I test my app in the iPhone simulator.
But now I am trying to test on the device, and I can't hit my Jetty instance. I can certainly access my Mac via the iPhone because I'm able to hit http://10.0.1.7/~brianpapa/ and view my Home Folder when Web Sharing is turned on. But when I try to hit http://10.0.1.7:8080/, it says it can't connect to the server.
Interestingly, if I try to hit http://10.0.1.7:8080/ from my mac, it doesn't work either - I have to use localhost as the hostname instead, then it's fine. Has anybody ever encountered this before, and know how to fix it?
You need to bind the server to your external ip address. See the docs:
--address=...
The host address to use for the server. You may need to set this to be able to access the development server from another computer on your network. An address of 0.0.0.0 allows both localhost access and hostname access. Default is localhost.
I'm trying to test my iPhone application on the device.
I have a mac computer which stores my development environment.
Right now I can only access PHP files using the http://localhost/PHPFileLocation
which does not work when I try to test my app on real device.
How do I configure apache2 to be accessible from outside?
Is it possible to configure it to a specific IP address?
I want to reach some php scripts located on my development machine running apache2 from my iPhone device.
Thanks
If your computer has a WiFi card then you should be able to attach the iPhone remotely to a ad-hoc Wifi network created on your dev machine.
I'm assuming your Mac is behind a router. You should be able to configure your router to port forward connections to your WAN facing IP address to port 80 (the HTTP port) on your Mac - see http://portforward.com/ for some help.
You may also need to turn the firewall off on your Mac.
Once this is set up correctly you can hit http://yourexternalIP/PHPFileLocation in your iPhone app and this will be directed by your router to the Apache2 server on your Mac. The external IP is normally found on your router's admin page somewhere.
I asked a very similar question not too long ago and got some great responses. I've made it pretty far but still can't quite get things to talk. What I have is a PC running IIS and a web service inside of that. I'm trying to get the iPhone simulator on my Mac to be able to see this web service. I can ping my PCs local IP address from the Mac just fine, it's clearly alive and on the network. However, no matter what URL I enter into Safari the web service will not appear.
Any suggestions?
Thank you very much in advance.
Is this a web service or web application?
One fair possibility is that your Windows firewall could be blocking access to port 80. If it is, open your Windows firewall settings and add an exception for port 80 (Control Panel -> Windows Firewall -> Exceptions).
You might try using telnet on your Mac to test connecting to the web service/application.
