Sorry for the delayed response. We have two connection servers. A member of our server group mentioned that the time is the same across both servers as well as the desktops. He also checked the replication status and mentioned that things were fine there as well. I performed our weekly refresh on Sunday, and there has yet to be a duplicate session this week. A bit frustrating that there is no easy way to replicate the issue.
Yes we are...

Hi Mohammed, I haven't personally experienced or witnessed users connecting from the same machine getting a new session - they tend to get the existing one. I have witnessed a user get a new session rather than their existing one when connecting from a different machine/device. It doesn't happen every time either, most times it will successfully connect you to your existing session (it's hard to reproduce as it seems fairly random). View version 5.2. I guess I would've first noticed this a few weeks ago when I was looking at the desktop inventory in view administrator and noticed that one user had two sessions - one which was connected and one which was disconnected. Thanks, Tim
Hi Mohammed, Thanks for your reply. I edited the original post just after posting to include that we have "Allow multiple sessions per user" set to no in these pools. Tim
We have several floating pools where users will sign in on a second device while a session is active on another device and end up with a new session rather than joining their previous session. Al... See more...
We have several floating pools where users will sign in on a second device while a session is active on another device and end up with a new session rather than joining their previous session. Allow multiple sessions per user is set to no, and automatic logoff after disconnect is set to never (as per http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1007581). The cases I have personally witnessed were using a secondary device to connect, but I am wondering if some users are just trying to reconnect after a session timeout and ending up with a new session as well. Has anyone else had issues with users receiving new sessions rather than successfully connecting back to an existing session that they are just disconnected from? Thanks.

Hi all, I have been trying to get a working thinapp of Java (6 update 37), Firefox (17.0.1 ESR), and Flash (11.5.502) as a single package. I did all the required customization before doing a postscan, and everything worked great. I had issues with Flash not working originally, which were solved by girakul's suggestion here: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/407959?start=15&tstart=0 Then I noticed that Java worked as long as it ran before Flash. If I visited a page with Flash content and then navigated to a page with Java content, the Java content would not load. However, if I deleted the sandbox in the appdata\roaming\thinstall location, Java would again work until the next time a Flash page was visited. I originally considered enabling RemoveSandboxonExit, but the user settings for Firefox are located within the sandbox and I cannot delete them. I even tried using vregtool to compare the contents of the registry.rw.tvr from a clean (Java working) sandbox and a sandbox where Java was broken (as explained by Jason Coleman here: http://virtuallyjason.blogspot.ca/2012/04/messing-with-thinapps-registry-for-fun.html) but was not having any luck. I was hoping someone may have a suggestion of a setting I could tweak to hopefully solve the issue of Java breaking after Flash is run. Thanks.
