i am waiting for you help

[kzelenko]

Please use \\serverFQDN\appshare when defining ThinApp share (rather than IP address).

You can find more details in documentation:

[baber]

thanks

i use this path \\vc.kb-dc.com\share  and in share folder there are 2 folder with this name Adobe Reader XI and Google Chrome but now get this error  (has been attached)

[baber]

i am so confused what is my problem

[RaviChayanam]

Can you look in the /var/log/messages file on your Workspace Portal virtual appliance and look for error messages there. You need to look at lines that have ThinAppRepoService in them

[RaviChayanam]

The folder structure of your thinapp share should be like this. The "share" folder should contain ThinApp packages. Inside each thinapp package should be .exe and .dat files.

vc.kb-dc.com

-->share

     -->ThinApp Package 1

          *.exe

     -->ThinApp Package 2

          *.exe

[baber]

my share path this is

\\vc.kb-dc.com\share\Google Chrome

and

\\vc.kb-dc.com\share\Adobe Reader XI

each paths contain these files

adobe inclide :  Adobe Reader XI , Adobe Reader XI.exe.alt

chrome include : attached

there is not any .dat file in these folders

[RaviChayanam]

Ok. Now can you look in the /var/log/messages file on your Workspace Portal virtual appliance and look for error messages there. You need to look at lines that have ThinAppRepoService in them

this is my log:

[RaviChayanam]

Thanks. Here is the issue "No AppID found - not a Horizon-enabled app." Your thinapps need to be Horizon enabled. See "How do you enable a ThinApp package for Horizon?" at VMware ThinApp 4.7 – What’s new? | VMware ThinApp Blog - VMware Blogs as one example of how this can be done.

[baber]

so thanks.

it is ok and i could add a software to my page but when i click on app new tab in mozilla open and appear

Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (horizon) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.

and show this adress in my new tab in mozill

horizon://474f4d20506c617965722f474f4d20506c617965722e657865/?horizon_signature=7becaf3be6dc61933d556737d526dcf5be9c4be52db1ea9f371171d1f29c5501127d1c84dd9516e8736187be8ee7c85ce0a5ebba3758662e96e49cabfe4e2c2a426bc85d4fb5fd8955d71c1d3b5b424c4f1d9d334cca2d9ce44a13f90abf32ae48918346e862888172aece256e22634b787f275eb59dc3695b94d0504c31c3e2

how solve problem?

[RaviChayanam]

You should install the Workspace windows client on your windows machine and set it up before thinapps can be launched. Please read the documentation for more details.

[baber]

so thanks from all of you

but now i want to know if i run workspace on a server and use iphone to connect workspace how can i use from these software because i thought there is not need install any software on windows (Workspace windows client)

for example if my Os pc is Linux i can not connect to workspace server and use from that software on linux

now what do we have to do if want use connect to workspace from iphone or android mobile or linux pc ?

so thanks

Babak

[RaviChayanam]

ThinApps can be launched from Windows machines only. It sounds like you need to use Horizon RDSH apps for your usecase of launching windows apps from non windows machines.

[baber]

can i install horizon rdsh on vmware workspace2.1 ?

[RaviChayanam · Accepted solution]

You need to install Horizon 6 separately for RDSH apps. Once that is installed, Workspace can be configured to show these apps on Workspace end user UI and SSO can be enabled. Please read the Workspace review guide and documentation to know about Workspace capabilities.

[baber]

so thanks i have readen a few documents about running RDSH on horizon now i have installed workspace and horizon on seprate machines now i want use workspace without installing any third software such as horizon desktop clinet on my pc or my mobilephone or tablet now what do i have to do ?

if i want launching windows apps from non windows machines.do i need workspace or not ?

Do i have to join workspace to horizon ?

[baber]

i am waiting

Best regards

Babak

[RaviChayanam]

To launch RDSH apps on any device a Horizon (View) client is needed. You will need to integrate Workspace and Horizon View to see RDSH apps on Workspace Portal UI.
