Publishing from a non-TS Server

[kcrbikes]

I have been looking through the documentation, and I cannot seem to come up with an answer to my question.

Is it possible to publish an application that is not installed on a TS Server? For instance, Server A is a TS Server with 2X Application Server installed. Server B, in the same domain, has an application that I want my users to access. What do I need to do to publish the application on Server B?

Will it matter in this situation if all the users come in from the Internet?

Thanks in advance.

I might have been hasty...there is a problem

I am trying to run two apps that reside at:

C:\apps -- this is the local app
Z:\apps -- this is a mapped drive to a second server without TS or 2X installed

When I run a published app residing on the C:\, everything works well, whether it is on the LAN or across the internet.

When I attempt to run a published app that is residing on Z:\, I get a "Failed to launch application <path and name> on Server <2X Server Name> The system cannot find the file specified."

The error does not occur when running as the domain admin, but will occur as a user, even if the user has full control over Z:\.

When running locally on the2X server as the user, I can run the application on Z:\.

Any ideas on what is happening?

Thanks.

Hi there,

Your issue seams to be the Z drive mapping.

What i suggest is to execute this application direct from its UNC path. Eg

\\otherserver\apps\myapp.exe
