Description

During ICA seamless launch, unable to launch the application with error "Cannot start Application name”. Issue with specific package. The registry on VDA HKLM\Software\Citrix\AppLibrary\Application Start details has correct data with correct package and version ID.

Resolution

Follow the steps below to resolve this issue -

1. Get the application AppV parameters via get-brokerapplication -applicationname <app name>
2. Copy these command line arguments to a notepad and search for TargetInPackage and change it to true.
3. Set the parameters correctly by using set-brokerapplication -name <app name> - commandlinearguments <modified command line arguments from [2]>

Problem Cause

Reviewing the logs and package XML, we figured out that TargetInPackage flag is set to false. As a result the launcher is attempting to find the package locally and fails.
