Citrix update script v1.8 with Hotfix/Rollup download

logoIn May 2007 I wrote an article on how to patch Presentation Server along with article I published a script to silent install Citrix Hotfixes and Rollups in one step. I use the script myself quite often but I was disappointed that I have to go to the Citrix site to download all current available fixes. This is quite a pain to navigate to each Citrix article and download the Hotfix/Rollup.

I have now extended the update script to automatically download ALL currently available Hotfixes/Rollups for the xenApp (Presentation Server) I have set. This is done with the Windows version of the unix command "wget". Wget also supports proxy settings and can be set in the script as well.

Right now xenApp 5.x is not supported because the is no fix available and I have to check what Citrix is doing there...This is the 1.8 release with the download option, so let me know of any bug etc.
Please leave your comment at the bottom of the article how to patch Presentation Server.

CPS 4.5 / xenApp 5.0 Rollup 03 out but pay attention!

ImageCitrix recently released Hotfix Rollup 03 for Citrix Presentation Server 4.5, xenApp 5.0 for Windows 2003. Pay attention BEFORE installing the Rollup 03 because it has some important requirements.

  • The Citrix License Server must be at version 11.5 to install this hotfix rollup pack.
  • The Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) must be installed on all servers before installing this hotfix rollup pack. This can be obtained from the Microsoft Web site.

  • With CPS4.5 R02/CPS4.0 R05 Citrix introduced the Commandline Parameter Validation for XenApp, see Knowledge Center articles CTX117316 and CTX115245.

  • The Suite Monitoring and Alerting (SMA) service used by the Access Management Console might not start after installing Hotfix Rollup Pack 3 and restarting the system. In order to fix this problem, you must upgrade the .NET version on the system to .NET 2.0 SP1.

  • Before installing this hotfix rollup pack on servers licensed for Standard Edition, you must migrate those servers to Advanced Edition. Standard Edition was discontinued on Citrix Presentation Server 4.5; installing this hotfix rollup pack on servers licensed for Standard Edition might cause error message to appear.

  • After you install this hotfix rollup pack, Presentation Server 4.5 licensing will be enforced for the Application Streaming feature available in the Enterprise and Platinum editions. As a result, this feature will start to consume Presentation Server licenses.
