Webinterface configuration not working after installation of .Net 2.0, or not showing ‘create site’

Finally! :)

 Citrix has updated the KB article about this with a usable Work around for this problem.

 The Problem is that the Access Suite Management console isnt working with the create site and other options when .Net Framework 2.0 is installed on the server running the console.

This is the new solution from Citrix:

Symptoms

The Access Suite Console is no longer able to properly communicate with Web Interface. The option to Create Sites is no longer available in the Common Tasks Pane of the Access Suite Console, and running discovery reports a warning which states “Could not contact any Web Interface configuration servers.”

Causes

This is caused by installing Microsoft .NET 2.0 on a Web Interface 4.0 server.

WorkAround

Remove .NET version 2.0.

-Or-

Create a file called “mmc.exe.config” in the \Windows\system32 directory and add the following lines to the file. You should be able to open the Access Suite Console without any further problems.

Please refer to: http://knowledgebase.citrix.com/article/CTX108104 for updates.

Nicely found Khaos!

    Men René detta testade ju vi redan i februari när du hjälpte oss uppdatera till PS 4.0.

    Det hjälpte ju inte för vårt problem då men jag vet att vi skapade mmc.exe.config-filen.

    Hey,

    Citrix opdaterede denne KB Artikel i September måned og en kammerat havde held til at benytte denne artikel i sidste uge. Så jeg tror at der er blevet rettet eventuel fejl fra i Februar. Jeg har ikke selv haft brugt denne artikel siden februar, men jeg vil teste den selv så snart jeg har muligheden.

     Du får nartuligvis besked :-) Jeg ved dog heldigvis at i næste version som vi nok ser mere til snart er Access Suite Management Console baseret på .net 2.0.

    /Rene
