Application setup

Post by chathuranga » Tue Dec 16, 2014 12:45 pm

I am running a trial of tsplus on Windows 7

I need to run an application (for example say Microsoft Word) imediately after loged in to the server through a client.
I'm willing to do this by using HTML5 loging in

I have assigned microsoft word for the specific user and tested it
But when I logged in to the server using the client, it always shows the server desktop and the application

What I need is to get only the application open and no taskbar or server desktop is visible for the remote client.

Is this possible using TS Plus?
please help me with this

Thank you!

Hello,

I recommend you to watch this video to get you started with TSplus : youtu.be/oSQV3n09fz4
You will find here a documentation on how to publish new applications : terminalserviceplus.com/docs/application-publishing
And how to assign these applications to users : terminalserviceplus.com/docs/assigning-applications-to-users-or-groups

If you are already familiar with the above then you need to check out the way you assigned your applications.
For example :

If you assign to user A the word application and assign the remote desktop application to the group "Users", since the user A is member of the "Users" group he will have word and a remote desktop.

Hello!

I have the same difficulty using the trial version 8.10.3.28. Created 5 users and 5 different applications. In each user only have activated an application, but it does not start automatically. I have to login and application page select the program.
How did not work, activated the FloatingPanel for each and every user selected application. Still not automatically initiated nor FloatingPanel.
I accessed all the instructions above, but still have not found a solution to this problem.
What can I do to solve this problem? How to put a separate application start automatically on each user or put the FloatingPanel automatically start for the user to choose?

Many thanks!

Hello,

Can you try the following :

- Open an admin tool, go the application tile, and select "Assign Application".
- Make sure no application are assigned on any groups and users. When a user or group have an application assigned, it is displayed in bold characters.
- open a session on the server with one of your newly created user and use either a generated connection client configured with "Classic remote desktop" or use the standard RDP client from Microsoft (mstsc.exe).
- You will then have access to a full remote desktop, launch your application and see what happens. You can copy / paste your application shortcut directly on the desktop folder of your users, to do so open an explorer.exe and locate the folder C:\Users\name of the user\Desktop.

If everything ran smoothly so far you should be able to proceed with application publishing, for the next test assign the remote taskbar to all users. You can do so by selecting the remote taskbar in the application publishing tile and check the "Assign to all users" box. Once you've hit the "save" box, connect again using the same user as before, it should display the remote taskbar and your app as well.

With RemoteApp works perfectly. But using HTML5 and Java even if it is only an application linked to the user program does not start automatically. When I type the username and password'm redirected to index_applications.html # instead of opening the application.
How to automatically open the application without going through the application page? You can start the application automatically while the TSplus Remote Taskbar or FloatingPanel?

Thank you very much!
