This section lists the known bugs and issues with SGD version 4.50.
Problem: SGD X and character emulators cannot distinguish between the Return key and the keypad Enter key on the user’s client keyboard.
Solution: By default, the SGD Client maps the keypad Enter key to Return in both X and character application sessions. With additional configuration, this behavior can be changed.
To change the behavior of the keypad Enter key in a character application session, you need to set up a keymap for your character application object (--keymap) and add a mapping for KPENTER, for example:
To change the behavior of the keypad Enter key in a Windows or X application session, you need to modify your X keymap, for example xuniversal.txt, and add a mapping for the KP_Enter key, for example:
92 KP_Enter KP_Enter NoSymbol NoSymbol 0x801c
Problem: Proxy server automatic configuration scripts can specify a list of proxy servers to try. If the first proxy server in the list is unavailable, the browser tries the other proxy servers in turn until it finds one that is available.
If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer with Java Plugin tool version 1.5.0, only the first proxy server in the list is used. If that proxy server is not available, the connection fails.
Problem: On Solaris 10 x86 platforms, enabling Integrated mode when you are logged in as the root user does not add applications to the Solaris 10 Launch menu. You might also see the following warning:
gnome-vfs-modules-WARNING **: Error writing vfolder configuration file "//.gnome2/vfolders/applications.vfolder-info": File not found.
Cause: A known issue with the Gnome Virtual File System (VFS).
Problem: On client devices running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10, the Gnome Main Menu crashes when using the SGD Client in Integrated mode. The crash usually occurs on login or logout.
Cause: A known problem with the Gnome Main Menu applet on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (Novell bug reference 186555).
Solution: Install the latest version of the gnome-main-menu.rpm package for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10.
Alternatively, disabling the Recently Used Applications functionality improves the stability of the Gnome Main Menu. Run the following commands on the client device:
$ gconftool-2 --set --type=list --list-type=int \ /desktop/gnome/applications/main-menu/lock‐down/showable_file_types [0,2] $ pkill main-menu $ pkill application-browser |
Problem: After enabling Automatic Client Login or Integrated mode, the SGD Client does not start automatically when you log in to the Gnome Desktop and the Start menu is not updated with webtop content when you log in to SGD. This problem affects SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
Cause: The directories containing the .menu files are not monitored and so changes to the Start menu are not detected.
Solution: The workaround is run the pkill gnome-panel command to restart the gnome-panel and pick up new menu information.
Note - You must run the pkill gnome-panel command to update the menu each time the menu changes. |
Problem: Shortcuts for the SGD Client do not display on the KDE Desktop Menu on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10.
Cause: SUSE-specific configuration of the KDE menu system means that if a menu contains only one application entry, then that single application is used in the main menu instead of the menu. If menu entry is a sub-menu, the sub-menu does not display at all. This causes the Login menu for the SGD Client in Integrated mode not to display.
Solution: The workaround is to add the following line to the [menus] section of the $HOME/.kde/share/config/kickerrc file:
ReduceMenuDepth=false
Then run the following command for the KDE panel to immediately pick up the changes:
# dcop kicker kicker restart |
Problem: After upgrading to version 4.40, a server that was configured to accept only secure connections now accepts standard and secure connections.
Solution: Reconfigure the server to accept only secure connections. In the Administration Console, display the Secure Global Desktop Servers -> Security tab for the SGD server and deselect the Standard check box in the Connection Types field. Alternatively, run the following command:
$ tarantella config edit --security-connectiontypes ssl |
Problem: Using Internet Explorer 7 on Microsoft Windows Vista platforms, the SGD Client cannot be downloaded and installed automatically. The SGD Client can be installed manually and can be installed automatically using another browser, such as Firefox.
Cause: Internet Explorer has a Protected Mode that prevents the SGD Client from downloading and installing automatically.
Solution: Add the SGD server to the list of Trusted Sites in Internet Explorer's Security Settings.
Problem: Users in Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese locales cannot display non-ASCII characters in the candidate and status windows of the input method when running applications on a Solaris OS application server. This affects Solaris 8 OS, 9 OS, 10 OS, and 10 OS update 1 platforms.
Cause: Missing font path configuration on the SGD server.
Solution: If the application server is running on Solaris 10 OS or Solaris 10 OS update 1, do one of the following:
For SPARC platforms, install patches 120410, 120412, and 120414.
For x86 platforms, install patches 120411, 120413, and 12041.
If the application server is running on Solaris 8 OS or Solaris 9 OS, do one of the following:
Desktop
SystemProblem: On Sun Java Desktop System (Java Desktop System), users might find that Launch menu entries are not created for SGD when they enable Integrated mode. The Launch menu entries are added when they log out of their desktop and log in again.
Cause: A known issue with the Gnome panel.
Solution: The solution is to install the following patches:
These patches are included in the Solaris 10 OS update 5 release.
The workaround is to log out of the desktop and log in again.
Technology is Enabled For Browser
But Is Not Installed On Client DeviceProblem: If Java technology is enabled in your browser settings, but a Java Plugin tool is not installed on the client device, the SGD webtop does not display. The login process halts at the splash screen.
Cause: SGD uses the browser settings to determine whether to use Java technology.
Solution: Install the
Java Plugin tool and create a symbolic link from the browser plug-ins
directory to the location of the Java Virtual
Machine (JVM) software. Refer
to your browser documentation for more information.
Problem: The online help for the Administration Console is disabled when Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS) connections to the SGD web server are enabled.
Cause: The Administration
Console uses the JavaHelp software
to display the online help. Additional configuration is required
to run JavaHelp over an HTTPS connection.
Solution: Import the
CA certificate used to sign the certificate for the SGD web server
into the JDK software keystore.
Use the Java software keytool application as
follows:
$ keytool -import \ -keystore /opt/tarantella/bin/jdk‐version/jre/lib/security/cacerts \ -storepass changeit -file /opt/tarantella/var/tsp/ca.pem |
Where changeit is the password for the keystore and jdk-version is the version of the JDK installed on the SGD server.
If you have more than one certificate in your ca.pem file, separate each certificate and add them individually.
Problem: When using a Canadian French (legacy) keyboard layout with Windows applications, some French characters are printed incorrectly.
Cause: A known issue with Canadian French (legacy) keyboard layouts.
Solution: No known solution. A compatible keymap file is not supplied with SGD at present.
Problem: Creating or modifying objects when running the Administration Console on a secondary SGD server returns the following error message: “Object could not be created”.
Cause: The creation or modification of the object is successful, but the Administration Console proceeds before the replicated data has come back from the primary server.
Solution: Wait for a couple of seconds and then repeat the operation.
Technology
PageProblem: Integrated mode
does not work correctly for arrays where the SGD load-balancing JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology
page is being used. The SGD load-balancing JSP, swcd.jsp,
is used for load balancing of user sessions.
Solution: No known solution at present. Do not run the SGD Client in Integrated mode when using the load-balancing JSP technology page.
Problem: High Central Processing Unit (CPU) usage can be reported when using the SGD Enhancement Module on a Microsoft Windows application server. Processes with high CPU usage can include ttaswm.exe and ttatdm.exe.
Problem: For full-screen Microsoft Windows Vista desktop sessions, the display color depth on the client device is limited to 16-bit.
Cause: A known issue when using SGD to display Microsoft Windows Vista desktop sessions.
Problem: Log in to SGD can be slow when using the Active Directory authentication mechanism in large Active Directory domains.
Cause: A known issue. The SGD Active Directory authentication mechanism does not always use the nearest domain controller when looking up users.
Software From a Java
Desktop System Session Displayed Using MyDesktopProblem: On Solaris 10 OS, font errors are reported and there are display problems when starting the VirtualBox software from a Java Desktop System desktop session that is displayed using MyDesktop. The problem is seen when using Xsession.jds as the Application Command for the MyDesktop application object.
Cause: Unavailable fonts on the SGD X server.
Solution: When starting the VirtualBox software from the Java Desktop System desktop session, use the -fn option to specify valid fonts. Alternatively, install the missing fonts on the SGD server. See the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Administration Guide for more details about using fonts with SGD.
Problem: If an SGD server is stopped, error messages are returned when starting security services using the tarantella security start command.
Cause: The tarantella security start command is unavailable if the SGD server is not running.
Solution: Start the SGD server first, before using the tarantella security start command.
Problem: SGD server will not start.
Cause: No available disk space on the SGD server.
Solution: Before starting the SGD server, ensure that sufficient disk space is available. The minimum disk space requirements are listed in the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Installation Guide.
Problem: SGD audio is not available when using a Linux platform client device.
Cause: The Enlightened Sound Daemon (ESD) is not running on the client device. ESD is usually started when the client device desktop session is started. Otherwise, the daemon must be autospawned by the ESD library on request.
Solution: Ensure that autospawning is enabled in the ESD configuration file. On most Linux platform client devices, this file is at /etc/esd.conf. For Ubuntu client devices, this file is at /etc/esound/esd.conf. The correct setting to make is auto_spawn=1.
Problem: When using Active Directory authentication, users cannot log in to SGD if SGD is configured to use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connections without client certificates to Microsoft Windows Server 2008.
Solution: The workaround is either to use client certificates with SSL connections, or to use the Kerberos protocol, to secure the connection to Microsoft Windows Server 2008.
Problem: Some user sessions end suddenly, about 12 minutes after logging in.
Cause: A known issue if the SGD user name contains extended characters, such as the Portuguese character ç or the German character ü, and the LANG locale environment variable on the SGD server is either set to C or is unset.
Solution: The workaround is to set the LANG environment variable for the SGD server to use UTF-8 encoding. Then restart services on the SGD server. For example:
# set LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8 # /opt/tarantella/bin/tarantella restart |
Problem: Users cannot start applications when using a secure SSL connection to SGD.
Cause: The SGD server is not forwarding connections from the external network interface of the SGD server to the localhost loopback network interface on the SGD server.
Solution: Ensure that the external bind address entry in the /opt/tarantella/var/serverconfig/local/nic.properties file on the SGD server contains a *. For example:
tarantella.config.edit.bindaddresses.external=*,www.example.com
where www.example.com is the external DNS name of the SGD server.
By default, the external bind address entry for an SGD server contains a *.
Problem: On OpenSolaris client platforms, users cannot log in to SGD or start the SGD Client.
Cause: The SGD Client requires the libXm.so.4 library. This library is not included in the OpenSolaris distribution.
Solution: A copy of the libXm.so.4 library is included in the /opt/tarantella/lib directory on the SGD host. Install this library in the /usr/lib directory on the client device.
Problem: On Microsoft Windows client devices with Japanese locales, Kana mode is not available for Solaris applications.
Cause: On Microsoft Windows client devices, the SGD Client uses ASCII for Kana mode. Solaris applications use Unicode for Kana mode.
Solution: On the Microsoft Windows client device, add a new system variable TARANTELLA_KEYBOARD_KANA_SOLARIS. Set the value of this system variable to 1.
Problem: When using LDAP to authenticate users, Windows applications can fail to start if the distinguished name (DN) of the user contains more than one single straight quotation mark(').
Solution: The workaround is to edit the wcpwts.exp login script. This script is in the /opt/tarantella/var/serverresources/expect directory on the SGD server.
Locate the following entry in the wcpwts.exp script:
regsub {'} $value {'"'"'} value
Edit the entry to read as follows:
regsub -all {'} $value {'"'"'} valueProblem: LDAP users are prompted to change their password each time that they log in to SGD. The issue is seen when using a Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6 server to authenticate users.
Cause: A known issue when using the Require Password Change at First Login Attempt and After Reset setting for Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition servers.
Solution: Disable the pwd-must-change-enabled setting on the LDAP directory server. This enables SGD users to change passwords on initial login, or following a password reset.
Problem: Installation of the SGD Enhancement Module on Microsoft Windows Vista platforms completes with no errors, but client drive mapping (CDM) and seamless windows services are not available following installation.
Cause: If installation is done using an account other than the Windows system administrator, registry keys for the CDM and seamless windows services are not installed correctly.
Solution: Log in as the Windows system administrator and install the Enhancement Module. Installing as a user with administrator privileges does not install the Enhancement Module correctly.
Problem: Users have to enter their user name and password every time that they start an application. The issue might be seen when SGD is being used with a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or Active Directory server.
Cause: Entries in the SGD application server password cache are limited to 256 characters in length. When using SGD with LDAP or Active Directory servers, the fully qualified user name can exceed this limit. This means that an entry in the application server password cache is not created for the user.
The issue is not restricted to entries in the application server password cache. The 256 character user name limit also applies to the following SGD components:
Solution: No known solution. If possible, SGD Administrators should attempt to restrict fully qualified user names to be less than 256 characters in length.
Problem: All applications fail to start when running SGD on OpenSolaris platforms.
Cause: An issue with ksh for some versions of OpenSolaris.
Solution: A workaround is to remove the HISTFILE=/dev/null assignment in the procs.exp login script. This script is in the /opt/tarantella/var/serverresources/expect directory on the SGD server.
An alternative workaround is to insert an unset HISTFILE line before the HISTFILE=/dev/null assignment in procs.exp.
Problem: Using the tarantella array list_backup_primaries command on an SGD server that has been stopped and then detached from an array returns a “Failed to connect” error.
Solution: Restart the detached SGD server before using the tarantella array list_backup_primaries command.
Problem: Users can experience a delay of about 1 minute when starting Windows applications. On other occasions, Windows applications might not start at all. The issues are seen when a firewall is deployed between the Microsoft Windows terminal server and the SGD server and CDM is enabled.
Cause: For drive mapping, the Microsoft Windows terminal server can use Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port 445 or port 137. The SGD server only uses port 137. In most situations, the terminal server initially makes a connection to the SGD server on TCP port 445. When this is unsuccessful, the terminal server then connects to the SGD server using port 137.
Problems can occur for certain firewall configurations, if the unsuccessful connection on port 445 is not handled correctly by the firewall.
Solution: Configure the firewall between the Microsoft Windows terminal server and the SGD server to either allow connections on port 445 or to deny connections on port 445.
Problem: When running SGD on 64-bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 platforms, all 3270 and 5250 applications fail to start.
Cause: A known issue. The tta3270 and tta5250 terminal emulator binaries fail to run on 64-bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2.
Problem: Users logging in to an upgraded SGD server through an SGD Gateway see a “Cannot connect to server” message.
Cause: The private key file, PeerCAkey.der, is not present on the SGD server. This file is present in a fresh install of SGD version 4.50, but is not created when upgrading from earlier versions of SGD.
Solution: On each SGD server in the array create a PeerCAkey.der file, as follows:
# cd /opt/tarantella/var/info/certs/ # /opt/tarantella/bin/bin/openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -nocrypt \ -inform PEM -in PeerCAkey.pem -outform DER -out PeerCAkey.der # chmod 600 PeerCAkey.der # chown ttasys:ttaserv PeerCAkey.der |
After making these changes, restart the SGD server.
After you have created the PeerCAkey.der file on each SGD server in the array, restart the SGD Gateway.
Problem: For client devices that do not have Java technology installed, or do not have a supported version of Java technology, the SGD Client might not start.
Cause: On client devices where Java technology is not available, the SGD Client must always be started manually. Users should not attempt to log in to SGD using their browser.
Solution: Start the SGD Client manually, either from the command line or using the Start Menu option, as described in “Accessing SGD Without Using Java Technology” in Chapter 6 of the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Administration Guide.
Problem: Active Directory authentication fails for user names that include umlaut characters, such as the German character ü.
Cause: Active Directory authentication uses the Kerberos authentication protocol. The Kerberos authentication protocol does not support extended characters, such as umlauts.
Solution: The workaround is to use the LDAP authentication mechanism, with a secure SSL connection to the Active Directory server.
Problem: Building and installation of Apache dynamic shared object (DSO) modules using the Apache apxs tool might fail on some SGD hosts.
Cause: A known issue with the libtool script included with SGD version 4.50.933.
Solution: The workaround is to edit the libtool script, as follows:
Problem: Upgrading the SGD Enhancement Module on Windows platforms to version 4.50.933 from earlier 4.50 versions fails. An error message prompting the user to remove the existing version of the product is shown.
Cause: A known issue when upgrading between these versions of the SGD Enhancement Module on Windows platforms.
Solution: The workaround is to uninstall the existing version of the SGD Enhancement Module before installing version 4.50.933. Alternatively, as version 4.50.933 does not include any new features, do not upgrade the existing 4.50 version.
Problem: Users with Sun Type 7 Japanese keyboards cannot input characters correctly using SGD.
Cause: Missing Solaris OS keytable on the client device.
Solution: Install the appropriate patch to install the keytable on the client device.
| Platform | Patch |
|---|---|
| Solaris 10 OS on SPARC platforms | 121868 |
| Solaris 9 OS on SPARC platforms | 113764 |
| Solaris 8 OS on SPARC platforms | 111075 |
| Solaris 10 OS on x86 platforms | 121869 |
| Solaris 9 OS on x86 platforms | 113765 |
| Solaris 8 OS on x86 platforms | 114539 |
Problem: When using the SGD Client in Integrated mode on Microsoft Windows client devices, users might notice that the Start menu entries are not sorted alphabetically.
Cause: This is caused by a Windows feature that adds new items to end of a menu rather than preserving the alphabetical sorting.
Solution: See Microsoft Knowledge Base article 177482 for details.
Problem: For Microsoft Windows Server 2003 applications, the display color depth on the client device is limited to 8-bit for large screen resolutions. The issue is seen when screen resolutions are higher than 1600 x 1200 pixels.
Cause: A known issue with Windows Server 2003 terminal services sessions.
Solution: See Microsoft Hotfix 942610 for details of how to increase the color depth to 16-bit.

This section lists the known documentation issues for the 4.50 release.
This section includes the following topics:
Using the Automatic Procedure for Securing an SGD Array When Deploying the SGD Gateway
Correction to the “Adding and Removing SGD Servers From An Array” Section
Configuration steps for the deployment scenarios on page 9 and page 11 of the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Gateway Administration Guide refer to the manual procedure for enabling security for an SGD array.
You can also use the automatic procedure for enabling security, provided that you disable firewall forwarding using the --firewalltraversal option of the tarantella security enable command. This command option is described in Changes to the tarantella security enable Command.
SGD version 4.50 uses version 1.2.27 of the mod_jk Apache Tomcat Connector and version 0.9.8k of OpenSSL. The SGD 4.50 documentation contains incorrect version information for these components in the following places:
On page 374 of the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Administration Guide, the table of web server components contains incorrect component version information.
The table of components should read as follows:
| Component | Version |
|---|---|
| Apache HTTP Server | 2.2.10 |
| OpenSSL | 0.9.8k |
| mod_jk | 1.2.27 |
| Apache Jakarta Tomcat | 6.0.18 |
| Apache Axis | 1.4 |
In the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Administration Guide and the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Gateway Administration Guide, Apache web server path names include incorrect component versions.
For example, on page 27 of the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Gateway Administration Guide, the following paragraph is incorrect:
“Configuration files for the Apache web server configured for use with the SGD Gateway are in the /opt/SUNWsgdg/httpd/2.2.10_openssl‐0.9.8i_jk1.2.25/conf directory. “
This paragraph should read as follows:
“Configuration files for the Apache web server configured for use with the SGD Gateway are in the /opt/SUNWsgdg/httpd/2.2.10_openssl‐0.9.8k_jk1.2.27/conf directory.”
The table of command options for the SGD Terminal Services Client on page 176 of the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Administration Guide incorrectly states that the default setting for the -windowskey option is on.
The following applications troubleshooting topic is missing from the released documentation.
Application startup can take longer than expected if SGD attempts to use an X display port that is being used by another service. Application startup eventually completes successfully.
The solution is to exclude the port from use by the X Protocol Engine.
In the Administration Console, go to the Protocol Engines -> X tab for each SGD server in the array and type -xport portnum in the Command-Line Arguments field, where portnum is the TCP port number to exclude.
Alternatively, use the following command:
$ tarantella config edit --xpe-args "-xport portnum" |
To exclude several ports, you can specify -xport portnum multiple times, as follows:
$ tarantella config edit \ --xpe-args "-xport portnum_1" "-xport portnum_2" "-xport portnum_3" |
The changes made take effect for new X Protocol Engines only. Existing X Protocol Engines are not affected.
The “Adding and Removing SGD Servers From An Array” section on page 340 of the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Administration Guide contains an error.
Step 4 of the “How to Add a Server to an Array” procedure should read as follows:
“4. Enter the peer DNS name of an SGD server in the DNS Name field.
The peer DNS name must be a fully-qualified DNS name, for example boston.indigo-insurance.com.”
The table of supported PDF viewers on page 243 of the Sun Secure Global Desktop 4.5 Administration Guide is incorrect. The table does not list Evince as a supported PDF viewer for Linux client platforms.
The table of supported PDF viewers should read as follows:
| Client Platform | Default PDF Viewer |
|---|---|
| Solaris OS on SPARC platforms | Adobe Reader (acroread) |
| Solaris OS on x86 platforms | GNOME PDF Viewer (gpdf) |
| Linux | GNOME PDF Viewer (gpdf) |
