Citrix ICA on fedora 8

[blwegrzyn]

I installed below libraries:
openmotif-2.3.0-0.1.9.4.fc8.drpixel.i386.rpm
libXp-1.0.0-8.fc8

then I installed citrix:
ICAClient-10.6-1.i386.rpm

then I run below commands:
sudo chcon -t textrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/ICAClient/npica.so
sudo semanage fcontext -a -t textrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/ICAClient/npica.so

and to make the plugin available to firefox I run:
ln -s /usr/lib/ICAClient/npica.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

Now, when I login to the website that has ica application, I click the aplication,
I see citrix window for 5 seconds, it starts to load and then disappears and nothing happens,

is above the right procedure, did I miss anything?

thx

Yup, same here! There were a couple more threads about, none worked for me.

I installed the version 10.6 rpm from ICA Client.

Try not to use the gui install.

Type rpm -ivh ICAClient-10.6-1.i386.rpm & it will tell you it needs two more files as dependency.

Use yum install to get the two files.

For my case, one can be available from yum repos.

The other is a libXm3-stub-1-0.i386.rpm. You can get the rpm from the link in my blog below.

After that, it will works.

When I click on my company's ICA client, it will laucnh the laun.ica file & select /etc/lib/ICAClient/wfica to open the session.

It works flawlessly for me.

3. The most teething problem it seemed, is getting ICA Client 9 to work with FC5. I need this to connect to my office network to do my work from home. Apparently ICA Client 9 needs libXm.so.3 while FC5 uses libXm.so.4. I have downloaded the following 'stud rpm' that make a symbolic link libXm.so.3 to libXm.so.4. That allows ICA client 9 to proceed & complete installation in FC5.

Actually if you use the command:

yum localinstall ICAClient-10.6-1.i386.rpm

it will automatically retrieve any dependancies and install automagically

Ha...ha... thanks for the tip. Heard of that before, just didn't know it actually meant the same thing.

in my case I can start wfcmgr, but when I run citrix through the web (thats how my company is doing it, it must be through https) it ica starts , I see the ica windows, i see that it is connecting and then it disappears and nothing happens,

[blwegrzyn]

Even if it installs dependencies citrix does not work.
Again, anyone knows how to troubleshoot the problem?

If you need to install the ICAClient 10.6 on Fedora 8, just follow these directions

First install openmotif-2.3.0. That will give you a libXm.so.4 under /usr/lib.

Create a symbolic link to libXm.so.4 using libXm.so.3

ln -s /usr/lib/libXm.so.4 /usr/lib/libXm.so.3

Now install the ICAClient RPM using the "--no-deps" option

rpm --nodeps -ivh ICAClient-10.6-1.i386.rpm

Thats it, your ICA client should run without issue now. If you try it from the menu and it does work, first try it via a command line:

 /usr/lib/ICAClient/wfcmgr -icaroot /usr/lib/ICAClient

After that you should be able to launch it from the menu with no problems.

Great minds work alike (and little ones seldom differ).

I see that's almost exactly what I did.

I see I also installed libXp, libXp-devel xorg-x11-xbitmaps

Apparently all of these were necessary, or I thought they were, when I installed it.
