xenapp6 on 2008r2

Posted in Uncategorized on December 20, 2011 by admin admin

today i setup a new test xen app on server 2008r2.  one funky thing was that i installed .net framework 1.1 to do some other testing and found out that xenapp tried to use the 1.1 framework for displaying published apps.

what i needed to do was to go into the application handlers and force xenapp to use .net 2 instead of 1.1 this got the published apps to display properly.
