Updating the ICA Web Client

You can update the ICA Web client whenever Citrix* releases a new version. This is not supported for the RDP Web client.

1. Download the new ICA Web client .cab file from the Citrix ICA client download site.

2. Copy the file to the Launch Item gadget's bin directory. The full path is:

   tomcat\webapps\nps\portal\gadgets\com.novell.ondemand.gadgets.LaunchItemGadget\bin

3. Change the ICAVersion property in main.xsl to the new version number:

   1. Open the file in an editor. The file is located in the following directory:

      tomcat\webapps\nps\portal\gadgets\com.novell.ondemand.gadgets.LaunchItemGadget

   2. Locate the following line:

      <!ENTITY ICAVersion "6,30,1050,0">

   3. Change the version to the new version number. If you are not sure of the new version number, you can open the .cab file, extract one of the .DLL files, then check the version information on the file properties.

   4. Save the changes to the file.

4. Refresh the portal style sheets by restarting the Tomcat servlet engine.

   or

   If you are using the NPS 1.5 full version (rather than the runtime version), you can refresh the style sheets by logging in to NPS as a portal admin, and clicking Portal Administration > Administer the Portal > Portal > Refresh Portal. On the Refresh Portal page, select Cached Stylesheets for Backend Rendering, then click Refresh Only.

The next time a user launches an ICA thin-client application through the Launch Item gadget, the new ICA Web client is installed to the user's workstation.
