New Fixes in This Release

1. In the AppCenter, published application icons might initially be displayed as 8-bit color graphics.

   [From DSCXAMx650W006][#253875]

2. Attempts to publish streamed applications can fail with just-in-time errors. The issue occurs with applications such as Corel PaintShop Pro that use fully transparent icons.

   [From DSCXAMx650W006][#LA1468]

3. When sorting by any column other than the default "Name" column of the AppCenter, the column sorting might not persist when refreshed.

   [From DSCXAMx650W006][#LA3835]

Fixes from Replaced Hotfixes

1. The Client ID in the Connected users view is always displayed as 0 (zero).

   [From DSCXAMx650W001][#LA0281]

2. When publishing a streamed application, if the .profile name differs from the parent folder name, the AppCenter incorrectly reports:

   "The above file name is not a valid Citrix streaming application profile."

   [From DSCXAMx650W002][#LA0505]

3. This fix improves the reliability of the AppCenter when custom administrators with permissions to "View Published Application and Content" navigate to Applications\ and then click Current Settings.

   [From DSCXAMx650W002][#LA1313]

4. When multiple administrators make changes from different consoles at the same time, they might not be able to view each other's changes unless discovery is run.

   [From DSCXAMx650W002][#LA1455]

5. The AppCenter becomes unresponsive when trying to rename a published application while the Current Settings tab is active.

   [From DSCXAMx650W002][#LA1665]

6. The AppCenter reports the product version to be Citrix Presentation Server 6.5.6682 and no hotfixes are displayed. The issue occurs when there is a server (listed alphabetically) in the farm that is configured for session-host only mode.

   [From DSCXAMx650W002][#LA1785]

7. When publishing an application located on a different server on the network, an incorrect path is returned for the application’s location.

   [From DSCXAMx650W003][#LA1873]

8. AppCenter displays Organizational Units (OUs) from different domains as "Unknown item" plus a GUID.

   [From DSCXAMx650W003][#LA2037]

9. Application enumeration fails for applications that use a 32-bit PNG icon for the application shortcut. To address this issue in its entirety, you must install both a XenApp and an AppCenter hotfix that contains Fix #LA0857.

   [From DSCXAMx650W004][#LA0857]

10. Attempts to publish certain applications in the Delivery Services Console/AppCenter can fail, resulting in the following unhandled exception:

    "System.NotSupportedException: Data is not in ICO format"

    [From DSCXAMx650W004][#LA2075]

11. In farms consisting of more than two servers, an error can occur while attempting to publish an application using the application publishing wizard. The issue occurs when an administrator whose user profile does not contain a "Links" folder or does not have write permissions to the "Links" folder (for example, C:\Users\administrator\Links) is browsing for an executable to be published.

    [From DSCXAMx650W004][#LA2720]

12. When publishing an application from a network share and using an IP address instead of the server name for the server, the following error message might appear:

    "Failed to read icons from file: <Filename>"

    [From DSCXAMx650W004][#LA2725]

13. This fix addresses the following issues with the Configuration Logging Database:

    1. When a worker group is created, server information is not added to the logs.
    2. When a server is added or removed from a worker group, that information is not added to the logs.
    3. When a OU is added or removed from a server group, that information is not added to the logs.

    To address this fix in its entirety, you must install both hotfixes XA650R01W2K8R2X64049 and DSCXAMx650W005 or their replacements.

    [From DSCXAMx650W005][#LA2237]

14. When exporting an application that is published to a worker group in AppCenter and then importing the file, an error message appears and the import process fails.

    [From DSCXAMx650W005][#LA2916]
