The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

There is no citrix ssl server configured on the specified address.

Hi
Im getting the error after I have logged in on the web interface, using username,password, and safeword.
I get to see my published applications. When i launch one of the applications from the internet, I get the error:  "cannot connect to the citrix metaframe server. there is no citrix ssl server configured on the specified address".
Im thinking it could be a nat or firewall rule problem to the Secure gateway.

If I make a vpn connection to the firewall, and make a entry in my hosts file like this:
172.16.0.5 csg.mydomain.com
it will work.
I can see in the secure gateway performance statistics, that I only get packets back and forth from it, using this method.

I have the following ports forwarded:
externalip1:443 -> CSG -> 80,443,1494,2598 -> LAN
externalip2:443 -> WI:444


Here is some more detail:

Internet  -> Firewall -> Internal Router -> Web interface (172.16.0.3:444) cert = citrix.mydomain.com
                                          |                  Citrix Secure Gateway (172.16.0.5:443) cert = csg.mydomain.com
                                          |
                                          |-> Citrix Servers 192.168.110.4, 192.168.110.5

Hello.  If you're forcing users to go to https://<CSG server>, then you can close port 444 to the WI server.  In the CSG configuration wizard's "Access Options" page, you should have Indirect selected (uncheck the checkbox if WI is on another server (I couldn't tell if you just used 2 IPs for one server or not)), enter the FQDN of the WI server (or localhost if it's on the same server), and check the "Secure traffic between the WI and SG" checkbox and enter port 444.

Test by going to https://<YourExternalName>.  At this point, everything is going through CSG.

Hope this helps,
Chris

Hi, I have other reasons for going to the WI first.
The reason is that the customer is actually 2 companys.
These sites have ssl certificates.
I have citrix.mycompany.com and citrix.mycompany2.com.

I have no problem logging in and authenticating. The problem appears when I press the application icon.
Users go to http://citrix.mycompany.com which forwards to https://citrix.mycompany.com on the iis

I use 3 IP's for one server.
Internet  -> Firewall -> Internal Router -> Web interface (172.16.0.3:444) cert = citrix.mydomain.com
                                          |                  Web interface (172.16.0.4:444) cert = citrix.mydomain2.com
                                          |                  Citrix Secure Gateway (172.16.0.5:443) cert = csg.mydomain.com
                                          |
                                          |-> Citrix Servers 192.168.110.4, 192.168.110.5

Ok, so you have port 80 opened as well from the outside (if they're getting to the page that redirects them to either WI1 or WI2, port 444).  Within each site in IIS, do you have the IP address assigned to the respective site (the one in the dropdown)?  I would assume yes, but wanted to verify.  In the CSG configuration, are you using the one IP, or is "monitor all ip addresses" checked?

Also, in the Web Interface console (for each WI site), are you using Secure Gateway Direct for the default method of access? (Manage Secure Client Access > Edit DMZ Settings.)
 
11.22.2006 at 08:06AM PST, ID: 17996571
Woops yes port 80 is forwarded to the respective sites.

Everything is happening on one server in the dmz.

IP address assigned to the respective site. None of the sites has all unassigned. Default web site is stopped.

CSG is one ip listening.

On webinterface configuration it is set to Secure Gateway Direct

It sounds like one option is off.  In the CSG configuration wizard's "Access Options" page, how do you have it configured?

Also check C:\Program Files\Citrix\Secure Gateway\logs.  This may help to find the cause of the problem.  I probably should've mentioned this folder before :-)

CSG config:
Metaframe Presentation Server -> next
Advanced -> next
Choosing csg.mydomain.com -> next
Protocol = SSLv3 & TLSv1, Cipher = ALL -> next
No check in monitor all IP adresses. 172.16.0.5 port 443 chosen. -> next
No outbound traffic restrictions -> next
Sta is set to the 2 fqdn of the presentation servers on the inside (only resolvable from dmz and inside) -> next
No connection timeout, and connection limit 250 -> next
None exluded from logfiles.
Direct Access option chosen
All events logged including informational

Nothing is logged unless im connected through VPN. But then it all works.
Im beginning to think its the firewall somehow, although nothing is logged there either.
 
11.23.2006 at 06:49AM PST, ID: 18003177
Im totally lost here.
I opened everything to csg.mydomain.com and forwarded it to 172.16.0.5.
Nothing at all comes in on this ip.
 
11.23.2006 at 07:13AM PST, ID: 18003305
Found the problem!!
The company hosting the customers DNS made a typo in the IP address!!! AAarrrrgh, when I get my hands on that guy I dont know what im gonna do! More than 2 days of seaching for a citrix error.... Grrrrr
I'll give you the points. I would never have spotted this even if you had asked me.
