Cannot connect to the Citrix XenApp server. Socket operation on non-socket.
Hello -
I have a Citrix XenApp Server running on server 2008. All works well except sometimes I may need to reboot. I have had no issues connecting from home on a non-wireless connection. My home PC repeatedly reconnects successfully to apps within citrix. I have one doctor that has a HP laptop running vista home prem and seems to be getting a error (Cannot connect to the Citrix XenApp server. Socket operation on non-socket) when he tries to connect to app. He is able to get to citrix site and view listed apps, however when he double clicks app it tries to establish connection and then comes up with that error message.
I got his laptop and tested. Weird thing is that if I connect to Ethernet cable I'm able to connect successfully consistently. If I disconnect cable and connect WiFi, well it works until I close Citrix website/page. When I reopen the URL link while on WiFi, it works, then doesn't. It's odd cause it will work and then doesn't work. I'll close/open and still works then doesn't work. I put in Ethernet cable it will work consistently. I appreciate if you can help me resolve this issue.

It sounds like a wireless issues at the moment. Have you looked at updating the wireless drivers and/or wireless application that laptop has? Does anyone else experience this issue? If so, is it only wireless?

It worked on another laptop wifi. Maybe it is wifi only on that laptop. What does the error mean?
DO you have Session reliability enabled on the web server?

ok.....I couldnt get to it through IIS, however I searched for the file and I had two results.
c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\citrix\

I then right clicked XenApp\Conf and opened with note pad.
This is what I got....

Why do you need to disable session reliability? How do I check if bandwith control is enabled and if so, how do I make sure I change all ICA files?
Thanks so much for all your help.
