I have been trying to do exactly what your article describes for some time now and have used your guide as a comparison benchmark to my own setup. Firstly its great to see such a well documented example in an area where Citrix fail to deliver themselves.
I am left with the same problem that Stephan describes (“No apps are available at this time” error on iPad receiver).
I have tried disabling the session reliablity feature on Storefront as he suggested but with no success. Actually I believe this problem was fixed in an recent CAG update.
My scenerio is slightly different in that I am using an Access Gateway Controller to configure the login points on a V5.04 CAG VPX appliance and to authenticate users rather than using the CAG to authenticate directly.
I am also using Storefront 1.2
My backend XenApp servers are V6.5
My web browser clients are working perfectly, as are my Windows Receiver V3.3 clients, but the iPad receiver is proving more than troublesome.
The iPad receiver works perfectly on the internal network so I know the connection to storefront server is good, just not through the CAG.
The iPad receiver can also successfully talk externaly to the PNAgent legacy resource in Storefront.
I am working on a proof of concept which involves using the Citrix Sharefile plugin in the latest iOS Citrix Receiver which needs to talk to Storefront through the CAG rather than the PNAgent resource.
Any help much appreciated.

Mark

In reply to Stephan. I'm sorry for my late reply on the older comment. Good to read that it is functional at the moment ;)

Jeroen,

My problem is fixed. Thanks anyway.
Notes: (if not already mentioned)
no ssl certificate is needed on the StoreFront server
Session reliability has to be disabled within the ticketing authorities (STA) settings (under gatways)
The interface of our CAG are in lan and dmz. Not both in dmz.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Hi Jeroen,

When connecting by iPad we get a message:
There are no Apps available at this time.
We’re using CAG504 (vpx) and StoreFront 1.2.
Creating the LP as described and
Everything else is working just fine (webinterface 5.4 and Storeweb)
Any ideas?
Regards,
Stephan

Jeroen,
Did you manage to install SF 1.2 yet?
I just upgraded without any worries. Works fine.
Just wanted to let you know.

Groeten!
