hello all

i need to upgrade my remote app server from 2008 to 2016,

and i need to create 2 rds servers and 1 broker server.

so i started  from here:

i choose "quick start" and after that its installed me "rd connection broker "rd web access" and "rd session host"  

now i am thinking if to installing the local programs that i need, and publish them.

and for finish i will clone that machine

after that i will create another server that he should to be the broker (if its necessary?)

my question is, its ok to do like that ?

and if its ok to work with 3 broker servers? because in a regular ts servers (not remote app. i remember that need only 1 broker server)

tnx

Hi,

I'm kicking off an extensive Excel macro on a network machine via Remote Desktop Connection that takes roughly 50 hours to complete. The macro VB calls a DLL file to execute a chunk of code in C++ (I did not build it and am not well versed).  Running the macro in an active session works fine, but if I disconnect and return a good time later, I can tell the macro has made zero progress since when I disconnected from the session--I can tell from status bar communication in Excel.  Once I reconnect my session, the macro continues running like I'd never left and no error messages or code execution breaks messages to be found.

It gets weirder--I have 4 options of VMs to choose from, all of which have identical specs (Windows 10, 64-bit Office, 64-bit OS).  The macro will continue to run when I'm disconnected on only ONE machine. The only difference I can see on the one machine that's successfully running the macro, is that it's the least recent to have been rebooted (and therefore updated) of the lot.

I do not have local admin rights on any of the machines. Any incite would be greatly appreciated. 

I'll caveat that I'm kind of a layman in tech speak; I apologize if I chose the wrong categories to post on.

after configuring and installing eh webclient on my deployment. when I try to connect to one of the resources I get the error..



when I check for the error in the console i get the following errors...

Can someone help me...

what to do next...

Hi there, we are experiencing an issue where we connect to one of our realtime machines and randomly (this happened about a week apart from one another) after you have authenticated, it just goes black and stays that way. I have to reboot the server to get the remote desktop services working again. 

I have noticed by logging into the console session on vmware, that after authenticating on the remote desktop client, it doesn't actually connect because my session using the same credentials on the vmware console is still active and untouched. 

Here are some errors I see : 

An error occurred when transitioning from CsrConnected in response to EvCsrInitialized. (ErrorCode 0x80070102)
&
An error occurred when transitioning from CsrConnected in response to EvCsrInitialized. (ErrorCode 0x80070057)

These logs are also accompanied by Event ID 4005 "The windows logon process has unexpectedly terminated"

I also noticed when I enter the IP for the VM in the remote desktop client and hit enter, the logon screen comes up immediately instead of the couple of ms you normally wait. 

Any idea on how to fix this permanently? 

Hi,

Not sure if this is the correct place to post regarding my issue, it's related to Printing/Printer Redirection on Remote Desktop Services!

We have a Remote Desktop Server which day to day operates perfect. It's running Server 2016 DC, recently installed.

We have been having this issue which either happens each day or every two days. We have printer redirection enabled and it works fine, however at some point during the day the server continues redirecting printers. When trying to print however the following error appears:

The document Print Document, owned by <user>, failed to print on printer OfficePrinter (redirected 14). Try to print the document again, or restart the print spooler. 
Data type: RAW. Size of the spool file in bytes: 1015048. Number of bytes printed: 0. Total number of pages in the document: 1. Number of pages printed: 0. Client computer: \\APP1. Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 2147500037. Unspecified error

Another error I seen was the below, which appears multiple times too.

Application popup: Windows - Application Error : The instruction at 0x00007FFA5C56E616 referenced memory at 0x0000000000000074. The memory could not be read.

Click on OK to terminate the program

I did notice when going into Devices and Printers on the Remote Desktop Server the 'Computer/Server' has a status of "Device Setup in Progress" - I noticed the "Device Setup Manager" service was running - which should only be triggered when needed, tried to stop and restart the service however with no luck.

I have tried restarting the Print Spooler, with no difference I also checked to see if we are using  Type 3 or Type 4 drivers as I read Type 4 can cause these kind of issues.

The resolution at the moment, is to get users to log off and restart and this fixes it for a period of time!

If anyone has some ideas or anything to try/look into, please let me know!

Thanks,

Adam

I am currently having an issue installing RDS on a Windows Server 2016STD. This server IS currently a domain controller. I know it's not recommended to run a terminal server on a DC but it is what is required for the situation. 
From what I understand Microsoft temporarily disabled the ability to install both RDS and ADDS on a single server, but from the info I can find on Server 2016 this has since been re-allowed. 

I am attempting to do a session-based deployment.

When trying to go through the standard deployment method, the installation fails on the RD Connection Broker role service with: "Failed: Unable to install RD Connection Broker role server on server 'Server'".

If trying to install with the Quick Start deployment method, the deployment fails at Remote Desktop Services role services with the error: "Failed: Unable to install the role services. Exception calling "Translate" with "1" argument(s):"Some or all identity references could not be translated."

There don't appear to be any errors or relevant events in the Event Viewer.  

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Hello,

we have a Windows Server 2016 RDS session-based server with User Profile Disks enabled. If there is at least one user logged in, for every other user that connects to the server, a warning is added to the Event logs: "Disk <x> the same disk identifiers as one or more disks connected to the system". Aside from that, all seems to work fine, so should I be worried about these warnings?

Hello.

Running a test RDS2019 server with UserProfile disks hosted on an RDSbroker share on 2016. 

Everything was fine but since the weekend, logging new users onto this server caused a black screen. The system became completely unresponsive. Upon investigation, we're noticing the following errors..

1) Disk 4 has the same disk identifiers as one or more disks connected to the system. Go to Microsoft's support website (http://support.microsoft.com) and search for KB2983588 to resolve the issue.

2) An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk4\DR24 during a paging operation.

4) The system failed to flush data to the transaction log. Corruption may occur in VolumeId: \\?\Volume{7483659d-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}, DeviceName: \Device\HarddiskVolume27.
(A device which does not exist was specified.)

5) The IO operation at logical block address 0x24ea0 for Disk 4 (PDO name: \Device\00000131) was retried.

For issue 1 i've looked at the KB and checked several other posts, using diskpart to look at the uniqueid, they are all different. 

2) Related? not sure

3, 4 and 5 I could do with some advice please.

I'm having an issue on a single RDS 2016 server at the moment where the start menu doesn't open.  

I've gone though lots of steps including sfc /scannow  (No errors)   DISM with all the options (No Errors)

I've cleared the Registry in firewall policy\restricted services\configurable\system.

I believe the issue is that I don't have any applications registered in the get-appxpackage at all, it just comes back blanks where as on working machines I get a list of about 15.

I've tried to install the packages by hand using variations of 

Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.Cortana_cw5n1h2txyewy\AppxManifest.xml -Verbose 

This returns the following;

I can't seem to get the system to re-register those applications!

Open to any suggestions?  (Please no, have you restarted the server!)

This happens on all users including local admin and new accounts.  Happens in Safe and Clean Boot.

Thanks.

hi,

we're suffering from session hosts that produce black screen errors in a RDS 2016 farm.

already connected users can mostly work, all new connections end up with a black screen.

to resolve the error the server has to be restarted.

i can say that

- this error appears after error 1534 (Fehler bei der Profilbenachrichtigung des Ereignisses Delete für Komponente {709E2729-F883-441e-A877-ED3CEFC975E6}. Fehlercode: Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.) starts appearing in the eventviewer.

- upon checking the registry for this SID i end up at "ProfileNotifyHandler Class app id {E10F6C3A-F1AE-4adc-AA9D-2FE65525666E} inprocserver32, C:\Windows\System32\gameux.dll".

- starting explorer.exe per taskmgr does not open an actual explorer window although the process appears in taskmgr

- tskmgr, eventvwr, cmd can be started without problems

- affected users appear as active in RDS management

- no third party security software is installed

- farm is fully patched

- HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ProfileGUID and ProfileList are ok (no old or .bak entries)

looking forward on how to resolve this without  rebooting the server or a permanent fix

thank you

best regards

Hi,

So nothing like being on the cutting edge......

I have been testing Server 2019 RDS and so-far-so-good apart from an issue with the Windows Search Service.

It appears that in Server 2019 each user gets their own search database EDB file in their profile path (appdata\roaming). e.g.

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\S-1-5-21-3901271148-1553943383-1671037523-1629\S-1-5-21-3901271148-1553943383-1671037523-1629.edb

When they log on and log off; this is connected to the search service and the following event log is generated

Source:ESENT
EventID: 326
SearchIndexer (10896,D,50) S-1-5-21-3901271148-1553943383-1671037523-1629: The database engine attached a database (3, C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\S-1-5-21-3901271148-1553943383-1671037523-1629\S-1-5-21-3901271148-1553943383-1671037523-1629.edb). (Time=0 seconds)

Unfortunately it appears that this process is not very stable and on some logons the database in the users profile does not attach and the following error is generated

Source:Search
EventID: 3057
The plug-in manager <Search.TripoliIndexer> cannot be initialized.
Context: S-1-5-21-3901271148-1553943383-1671037523-1629 Application

The gatherer object cannot be initialized.
Context: S-1-5-21-3901271148-1553943383-1671037523-1629 Application, SystemIndex Catalog
Details: The specified object cannot be found. Specify the name of an existing object.  (HRESULT : 0x80040d06) (0x80040d06)

And a few more similar but related errors....

No subsequent logon/off will succeed in attaching the database until the Windows Search service is restarted

I am not testing with User Profile Disks or Roaming Profiles
There is no AV on the server

Any ideas?

I'm having trouble with this on Windows 2019.

I have thee services installed and the RDWeb/Pages/en-US/password.aspx page loads OK.

When i enter the credentials for a user and try to change the password, no matter the complexity I set for the new password, I get the following message:

"Your new password does not meet the length, complexity, or history requirements of your domain. Try choosing a different new password."

I've disabled password complexity in the GPO to be sure that's not impacting the issue, but the problem persists.

I have seen an error on the RDWeb server hosting this page, in the servers application error log, and am unsure what to do with it:

Can anyone assist?

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone could help me. I have a new Dell T440 in a school and RDC is disconnecting every 10 min or so. Please note this only happens when connecting to the server from an external site. If I am on a PC within school and create an RDC session its fine!

I have done the below and rebooted but it’s made no difference.

Computer Configuration\ Administrative Templates\ Windows Components\ Remote Desktop Services\ Remote Desktop Session Host\ Connections\

Configure keep-alive connection interval     Enabled

Keep-Alive interval:     1

Using Hyper-v the server hosts three Virtual servers, Sims, file & print and the DC. I can connect to any of these remotely via RDC and the connection is stable. The issue just seems to be with the Dells physical version of Server 2016. I have connected Dell and worked with them to upgrade to the latest firmwares and Drivers. Following this Dell has now advised me to log ticket with MS.

This one has stumped me tbh. I have event gone down the route of replacing the router and switches but that's also made no difference either. I am loathed to rebuild the server without exploring every other avenue first. 

Any help would be really appreciated.

Cheers

I am getting the above error from our server manager and as a result i am not able to see the users logged on or shadow them from the server manager. Logons are working fine. Server version is 2016  v1607. The enviroment is a single RD session host and another server running Connection broker, gateway, licensing and web access.

What i have tried so far:

Reboot both the terminal server and the connection broker

Removin the terminal server from the collection and adding it again

Checked licensing

Checked DNS

Only other solution i have found was trying this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2008-R2-and-2008/ee907343(v=ws.10)?redirectedfrom=MSDN

But this is for 2008 servers and it is not possible to access the local users and groups since the connection broker is also functioning as DC for the location.

Any suggestions?

Hello,

I would like to create RDS deployment based on Windows Server 2016. Idea is to load-balance RDSH servers via Citrix Netscaler. I have some questions in regards to that deployment. 

Environment: 10 RDSH servers + 2 RDS Connection Brokers + 1 License server. All RDSH servers will be available over NS VIP. 

1. Is RDS Broker server needed if Netscaler is in front of deployment?
2. Will Citrix Netscaler use RDS broker as point to verify whether user has active session or disconnected session?
3. If there is no need to use Gateway/web interface, is it necessary to create collection?

Thank you in advance,

I have a user that uses his Windows 10 laptop to connect to the Windows 2008 R2 server using remote desktop. He was working fine for a while then all of a sudden started getting kicked off. He will connect for about 5 - 10 minutes and then get disconnected.

Event logs on the laptop are:

Event ID 1026 - RDP Client ActiveX has been disconnected (Reason = 516) - Remote Desktop can’t connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons:  1) Remote access to the server is not enabled 2) The remote computer is turned off 3) The remote computer is not available on the network  Make sure the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled.

But he is able to connect so we know that remote access is enabled, the remote computer is not turned off (it's the main file server - never off), and the remote computer is available on the network or he would have never connected to get disconnected.

Event ID 226 - RDP Client_TCP: An error was encountered when transitioning from TcpStateConnectingTransport to TcpStateDisconnected in response to TcpEventConnectionTimeout (Error code:0X80004004)

We only use IPv4 so we have IPv6 unchecked. We specify the IP address and DNS settings so they are on the same network as the server. He remains connected to the network, just not to the server.

Event ID 1105 - The multi-transport connection has been disconnected.

I found an article with similar errors that pointed to inactive ports as the culprit. I checked the registry and found there were over 500 inactive ports. I ran the "fix-it" and it deleted all of the inactive ports. I will apply the HotFix tonight while everyone is logged off and am able to let it reboot. However, clearing those ports didn't stop him from disconnecting.

The event logs on the server are:

Event 25, TerminalServices-LocalSessionmanager - 1:47:14pm

Remote Desktop Services: Session reconnection succeeded: 

User: ServerName\UserName

Session ID: 3

Source Network Address: Laptop's IP Address

Event 24, TerminalServices-LocalSessionManager - 1:52:20pm

Remote Desktop Services: Session has been disconnected: 

User: ServerName\UserName

Session ID: 3

Source Network Address: Laptop's IP Address

This will continue like this all day. He can't stay connected for no more than 20 minutes. Some sessions are only a couple minutes. Does anyone know what we need to do to fix this?

Thanks,

Jessica

Hello,

Does anyone know how to install Yammer notifier on RDS W2K12 R2 for all users?
Tried some things but its not working. Normal Yammer installation and the MSI both are not working in RDS.

Any help will be appreciated.

We have 2 connection broker servers and few RDS session servers in the environment managed with VHD. whenever we try to remote in,its asking to login several times even though we enter the correct password. After the third time,users are getting authenticated and was able to login with the same user name and password.

Any solutions for this?
