Citrix Receiver 13.0 will not open/start/work - openSUSE 13.1

English Applications

Good evening,

I am running openSUSE 13.1 KDE on a Lenovo Thinkpad E535.

I have installed the Citrix Receiver 13.0 but it does not want to open/start/work, I figure if use three verbs it will portray how lost I now am.

  1. I have installed all the dependencies from https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:robverduijn:citrix.

  2. I followed this up by installing the official Citrix Receiver 13.0 using the Apper installer.

  3. I have copied the certificates I need to the correct location.

  4. I have instructed Firefox to open the .ica with opt/Citrix/ICAClient/wfica

But when opening the .ica file nothing happens. I have the rotating icon on the task bar that implies it is loading but then it disappears and nothing…

I have always managed to get Citrix working on Arch and Debian so reverted to those instructions to see if I had missed anything, but I can’t see that I have. One thing I noticed is that under other distributions the installation creates the /home/USERNAME/ICAClient/linuxx86/ directory but in openSUSE it has not.

I would greatly appreciate some help. I need to use it for work purposes but do not want to move away from openSUSE.

Many thanks,

José

I ended up installing Citrix 12.1 and it now works. When I get some spare time I will attempt to get 13.0 working.

Thank you for your help.

That’s the main thing I guess.

When I get some spare time I will attempt to get 13.0 working.

Thank you for your help.
