Issues with Citrix and compiled exe

I have a compiled exe that runs another program and puts in the username and password and clicks the ok button.

I have tested it on a laptop and it works. I had some crashes and tech support told me to clean out my temp files. Once I did that it seems to work everytime.

I copied the compiled exe to our Citrix server. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. The error message is about trying to read from the M drive. On Citrix the Documents and Settings folder where the Profiles are stored are on the M drive. It is a Citrix thing.

The profile folder for the user is there and they have rights. The weird thing is sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Anybody have any problems running a compiled exe on a Citrix server?

Thanks,
Gary Milke

I have run into some instances with Drive Mapping problems.

As a matter practice now, I just always use UNC names for all my paths in my scripts, for my groups and for the values in any shortcuts.

I am calling Run Program. I am only specifing the target exe file with no path info. I put the compiled exe into the same folder as the target exe. It should look in the working folder first.

Should I put the full path of the target exe into my script? Based on the examples, I shouldn't have to.
