Cannot Register an Application Repository

You cannot register an application repository in Horizon Administrator.

Problem

You receive an error message when you attempt to register an application repository in Horizon Administrator.

Cause

The Connection Server host cannot access the network share that hosts the application repository. The network share path that you typed in the Share path text box might be incorrect, the network share that hosts the application repository is in a domain that is not accessible from the Connection Server host, or the network share permissions have not been set up properly.

Solution

• If the network share path is incorrect, type the correct network share path. Network share paths that contain IP addresses are not supported.
• If the network share is not in an accessible domain, copy your application packages to a network share in a domain that is accessible from the Connection Server host.
• Verify that the file and sharing permissions on the shared folder give Read access to the built-in Active Directory group Domain Computers. If you plan to assign ThinApps to domain controllers, verify that the file and sharing permissions also give Read access to the built-in Active Directory group Domain Controllers. After you set or change permissions, it can take up to 20 minutes for the network share to become accessible.
