StoreFront

Cumulative Update 5 (CU5)

Release date: Jun 04, 2024

What’s new in 2203 LTSR CU5

Enable advanced health check for all stores

Advanced health check is enabled for all existing stores on upgrade to 2203 LTSR CU5 to improve resiliency. With the advanced health check feature, StoreFront can more reliably check for any issues in the delivery controller. When used with Citrix Desktops as a Service, the advanced health check provides additional information about the connectors present at the resource locations. This is useful in the event of an outage. When a user launches a resource, an appropriate connector to launch the resource is selected automatically using Local Host Cache.

It is possible to disable advanced health check but this is not recommended as it would reduce resiliency. To disable advanced health check for all stores, you can use the following PowerShell script:

foreach ($store in Get-STFStoreService)
{
    Set-STFStoreFarmConfiguration -StoreService $store -AdvancedHealthCheck $False
}

Citrix Workspace app for HTML5

Fixed issues in 2203 LTSR Cumulative Update 5 (CU5)

StoreFront 2203 LTSR CU5 contains all fixes included in CU4, and the following new fixes:

  • Usernames with special characters might appear corrupted. [CVADHELP-24389]

  • When you start an app or a desktop session, the following error message might appear even though the resource starts successfully:

    “Cannot start Desktop”.

    The issue occurs when you upgrade StoreFront to 2203 CU4 Update 1 and the Citrix Workspace App for Windows supports opening a custom web portal. [CVADHELP-24757]

  • With app protection enabled, when you restart a session on a StoreFront store, a new session opens without logging off from the existing session. [CVADHELP-22634]

  • Attempt to start resources or app enumeration might fail when you upgrade StoreFront to version 2203 LTSR CU4. [CVADHELP-24175]

  • This fix corrects the typo appearing in the German language error message. [CVADHELP-23088]
