Ica Client 10.00.6 For Mac
For All Things Citrix. So I work at a Hospital help desk and once in a while we will get callers calling from home (mostly on the weekdend) regarding launching Citrix applications on their Mac laptop. Citrix applications are launched via a Citrix portal.
Users will log into the designated hospitals Citrix page (once logged in, NetScaler is in the web address), and then they will see a list of applications they can launch via using the Citrix Receiver. Today, I had a lady call in using Mac OS Sierra 10.12.3. No matter what I tried, I could not get the.ica files to actually open in Safari nor Chrome. Here is the workflow and results:. Logged into Citrix page. Clicked on the designated icon, which launches an.ica file. A small little spinning wheel would begin under the icon, followed by the, Citrix 'Starting application,' window.
Finally after a few seconds, that 'starting application' window would disappear, and on the takbar on the bottom of the page, the Citrix Viewer icon would show up. It would start bouncing up and down and then suddenly, a very tiny looking taskbar would flash next to the Citrix Viewer icon at the bottom (on the taskbar) and then go away.
I never got any error messages, the.ica (or maybe the Citrix Viewer) would not launch the.ica file to allow access to the application. She was currently using MacOS Sierra 10.12.3 and Citrix Receiver for Mac 12.5. Would possibly Receiver 12.3 work? I was so frustrated not being able to fix her issue.
The IT department where I work changed the certificate for remote access via Citrix this past weekend. Wheras previously I had no problem accessing the VPN using Citrix via Firefox on a Mac, it suddently stopped working. I got the following error: SSL Error 61: You have not chosen to trust “Network Solutions Certificate Authority,” the issuer of the server’s security certificate. Error numb er: 183 This was a puzzling error. I checked my certificates under Firefox and it seemed to be correct. The certificate appeared in my Keychain.
I tried adjusting the Trust settings for the certificate on Keychain, but that had no effect. No one at IT was able to help me because they don’t have much Mac experience.
Ica Client 10.00.6 For Mac Os X
A Google search showed that this is a fairly common problem that can affect several different certificates (the one listed above is the one I had a problem with). Unfortunately, none of the answers I found got me all the way to a fix.
I thought I would post my solution here to see if it helps anyone. Go to Keychain Access and find the certificate that is a problem (for me it was Network Solutions Certificate Authority, but it could be any of a number of certificates). Export the certificate to the desktop (right click/export) – it will appear as Network Solutions Certificate Authority.cer 3. Go to the Citrix folder on the Mac and look for a keystore/cacerts folder. If the folder isn’t there, you will need to create it.
To do this, go to Applications/Citrix ICA Client. Create the folder keystore (Right click/new folder). Within that folder, create the folder cacerts. The path will be Applications/Citrix ICA Client/keystore/cacerts.
Copy the certificate exported from Keychain earlier (Network Solutions Certificate Authority.cer) to the Applications/Citrix ICA Client/keystore/cacerts folder. Some sources say you need to change the extension to.crt (so in the example, this would be Network Solutions Certificate Authority.crt), but that didn’t work for me. The.cer extension did. Now you should be able to access the VPN through its usual website on Firefox. For reference, I am using Citrix for Mac, version 10.00.603, and Firefox, version 3.6 on Mac OS X, version 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard).

Then this same. Says: This is not working for me. When I export the certificate I get several ‘format’ choices none that are.cer or.crt I have tried adding both of these extensions but neither will work. When I choose to export the certificate from my FireFox preferences – Encryption – Certificate Manager I get three file type options: PEM, DER, and PKCS#7 with or without chain. I have tried both versions of PEM and DER to no avail. They do not export with an extension and as noted above I have added the extension.
To clarify I have placed the exported files in this directory: Applications/Citrix ICA Client/keystore/cacerts FireFox 3.6.3 Mac OS X 10.5.8 Citrix ICA 7.10.500. Says: Any help will be greatly appreciated!. Says: I’m not sure why you wouldn’t be able to export the certificate with a.cer extension. Looking through my Keychain, it appears that my certificates all have the option to export as.cer (as well as.pem and.p7b).
It seems like it is an issue with the format of the certificate. Have you tried searching to see if you can download an alternate copy of the certificate from somewhere? Depending on the certificate that is an issue for you, you may be able to find it available for download. Chris Says: Medgirl, you rock.
One of my clients upgraded their Citrix Gateway without telling me and I was getting the same SSL error 61 when trying to launch a remote application. Your instructions didn’t work exactly for me, so I’d like to give additional instructions for anyone still struggling. This applies to: Mac OS 10.6.3 Snow Leopard Firefox 3.6.3 Citrix Online Plugin (ICA Client version 11.1.0) The “Network Solutions Certificate Authority” was the certificate giving me a problem too, however the version stored in my Keychain was not appropriate for the new version of the ICA client I’m now using, version 11.1.0, AKA the Citrix Web Plugin.
To fix things, I got the newer version of the needed certificate from a Windows machine, via these steps: Windows Specific Instructions: 1) From a Windows computer, log in to the Citrix Gateway once and launch any application. This will ensure that the certificate gets installed in Windows, if it’s not already present (it wasn’t present for me.) 2) In Windows, log out of the Citrix gateway.
3) launch Internet Explorer if not already running. 4) in IE, go to the Tools menu – Internet Options – Content tab 5) click the Certificates button 6) click the Intermediate Certification Authorities tab 7) find the “Network Solutions Certificate Authority” certificate in the list 8) click the certificate once to highlight, then click Export 9) click Next 10) choose DER Encoded Binary X.509 (.CER) 11) click Next 12) click Browse, and change to the Desktop if not there already 13) in the file name field, type or paste: Network Solutions Certificate Authority 14) click Save, click Next, click Finish. 15) there should now be a file on the Windows desktop with the name Network Solutions Certificate Authority.cer 16) copy this file to the Mac in whatever way you normally move files. Mac Specific Instructions: 17) on the Mac, copy the file to your desktop. 18) in Finder, go to Applications – Utilities 19) launch Terminal In Terminal.
Type these commands, without the # sign. There will NOT be any output from the commands. Be very careful to type them exactly. # sudo su – (now enter your Administrator password) # cd /Library/Application Support/Citrix/ # mkdir keystore # mkdir keystore/cacerts # cd keystore/cacerts/ # mv /Desktop/Network Solutions Certificate Authority.cer. (Note: the last 2 characters of that command are a SPACE and a PERIOD) # exit # exit 20) you can now quit the Terminal application Your remote Citrix applications should now launch from Mac Firefox without problem. Says: Chris – thanks for your comment!
Very helpful!. Chris Says: My pleasure. #8 was translated to the “cool smiley” accidentally, for anyone wondering, and I’m not sure what happened to the spacing in the “mv” command toward the bottom. There should only be a single space in between the words, as well as a single space before the final period. Ron Says: medgirl, I followed your instructions carefully but still unable to get past error 61. I have not been able to access the clinical portal for months because of this (that is, remotely, using OS 10.4, Intel, and either Foxfire or Safari). The certificate is apparently on the Desktop.
My question is: your instruction, #3 says to go to the Citrix folder. There is no such folder on my Mac. The Applications folder simply has the Citrix app. I created a folder on the Desktop and copied the certificate to it but that did not work. You probably have the answer to this. Like you, I had the same experience with our IT; they were totally stymied by the Mac and pretty vocal about not supporting the Mac. Thanks, Ron.
Ron Says: Medgirl, This is a followup to the post I just sent. I was mistaken about the location of the certificate; it is not on the Desktop. It is a Verisign certificate.
The.cer file has the following path: Mac HD/library/Application Support/Citrix/Keystore/Cacerts/ Is this the right location for it? Ron. Says: Hi, Ron, for me the certificates can be found under Applications both in Macintosh HD and in Applications under Place in the sidebar. Under Applications, there is a folder called Citrix ICA Client/keystore/cacerts and that’s where I put the certificate. Richard Dixon Says: Tremendous work Medgirl and Chris, solved a really annoying problem which had me baffled. kidneydoc Says: Thanks for the update.
All my attempts to work around error 61 have failed. Even went to an XP computer and copied the certificate and then copied it to the cacerts folder. Then IT sent a zip file that has all the certificates at the institution where I work. I copied all of them to cacerts. Still did not work. I am still using Tiger and the Citrix version is 7xxxx something.
I have tried both Firefox and Safari. Even the genius at the Apple Genius Bar could not help. I have reached a deadend. Ron. Matthew Says: Thank you thank you thank you!!
Just upgraded to wonderful new iMac, older iMac running 10.4.11 working fine, everything seemed to be working fine and-blooey, error above. Third certificate I tried, fromlogin keychain, worked – could not export it (wasn’t an option) but click and drag worked just fine. Tim Says: I to have had the same problem and still have not found a solution. pduche Says: Try the following steps — Step – 1: login to the MAC Step – 2: in the Citrix installation folder: (.most likely /Applications/Citrix ICA Client.)

johan Says: Hallo Jacco, ik zag dat jij de oplossing had voor het ssl error 61 probleem. Zou je mij kunnen helpen? Ik heb in de sleutelhanger een blaauw vinkje staan bij comodo certification en kan het op geen enkele wijze veranderen. Says: I was having problems with the geotrust cert.
I used Chris’s method above except for steps 17–19 I opened keychain access and imported the.cer file into the system keychain. Chris Says: Good work flash. Medgirl, I just re-read the Unix commands above and, to my horror, I see a syntax error. Would you please edit the original post? These commands are more concise and the in the mv command now correctly references the user’s home directory and desktop, instead of root’s.
These lines replace everything in #19, under the directions to type carefully: # sudo mkdir -p /Library/Application Support/Citrix/keystore/cacerts (enter your Administrator password here) # sudo mv /Desktop/Network Solutions Certificate Authority.cer. (Note: the last 2 characters of that command are a SPACE and a PERIOD) # exit best regards. Patrick Says: I got the same SSL 61 error message. I’am using the Citrix Receiver (version 11.4) But the solution above is for Citrix Web-Plugin, there is no “Citrix ICA client” I have tried al possible combinations with creating the folders in Finder, but with no possitive result. When i go to the site, to connect with the citrix secure gateway, and i check the certificates(path) in Safari they al state “Trusted”. Has anyone a solution?.
Chris Says: Hi Patrick, I have the same issue as you. Do you find a solution or not? Thanks for your help Chris. Robert Zahm Says: Not sure what ultimately fixed this.
I tried the steps above with the cert exports and it worked for a few days, but broke again when the Cirtix client was updated. I manually trusted the DigiCert certificates in the KeyChain, and this seemed to resolve it again. Says: fix and repair computer problems Citrix on Mac: A Fix for SSL Error 61 « medgirl2001's blog. Says: FYI, If you (or have someone) place the intermediate cert on the Citrix Access Gateway (or NetScaler) and link it (chaining) to the primary SSL certificate, you do not need to mess around with adding it to your local KeyChain.
We linked our DigiCert wildcard to the DigiCertCA.crt and the error was resolved. No need to have the end-users do work that they should not have to. Gfuss. Anand Says: Brilliant. I almost gave up on this and I followed your steps as a final try: I’ve added my comments to your points: I use: Mac 10.6.8, firefox 10.0.2 1. Go to Keychain Access and find the certificate that is a problem (for me it was Network Solutions Certificate Authority, but it could be any of a number of certificates).
My comments: I didn’t find it here. So I exported the certificate by clicked on the blue area (where you type the link to the website that you access) - more information - security - view certificate - details - under the ‘certificate hierarchy’, I clicked on Verisign class 3 international server ca – g3 and hit ‘export’ 2. Export the certificate to the desktop (right click/export) – My comments: didn’t change anything to the file name or extn. Just saved it as it was.
Go to the Citrix folder on the Mac and look for a keystore/cacerts folder. If the folder isn’t there, you will need to create it. To do this, go to Applications/Citrix ICA Client. Create the folder keystore (Right click/new folder). Within that folder, create the folder cacerts.
The path will be Applications/Citrix ICA Client/keystore/cacerts. Copy the certificate exported from Keychain earlier (Network Solutions Certificate Authority.cer) to the Applications/Citrix ICA Client/keystore/cacerts folder. Some sources say you need to change the extension to.crt (so in the example, this would be Network Solutions Certificate Authority.crt), but that didn’t work for me. The.cer extension did.
My comments: I didn’t change the extn. Just copied and saved the file that I exported. Andrew Says: Having trouble locating this: Applications/Citrix ICA Client. I do find the plug ICA however. Says: Thank you so muchhad this error all weekend and couldnt figure out what to do til I read this!. Syd Says: THANK YOU! I’ve been working on this for days and not a single website could help me.
Forever grateful. stanley ellames Says: You are a legend, thankyou from Australia, our IT suggested an OS upgrade, got to love them thou!!.
K V Dev Says: I am getting this error on Windows as well when I try to launch any of the citrix applications. Aida Says: we had the same problem, and it was a problem with the certeficate in the ASA the cert was signed with sha256 algorithm seems to be causing problems.we requested another cert with sha1 and it worked fine. Says: Can you provide more explanatory details please?
We seem to have the same problem but am not knowledgeable on the technicalities. What does ASA mean, and how does one request another cert with sha1?. Says: Upgrade to Citrix Receiver 11.7 or later, which supports SHA-2:.
Rachael Says: This fixed it!!!. Alissa Says: Thank you so much for creating this blog. We just wasted an hour on the phone with national IT and they couldn’t figure out the problem! I still don’t understand how this worked but THANK YOU!!.

There isn’t a citrix folder as mentioned. Nor is there one in the /library/application support section either. Any one have any fixes or suggestions?. Kalle Says: How i fixed the SSl Error 61 with Citrix on a mac: I had the Problem of the SSL Error 61while trying to connect to my companys website. I had all the certificates installed in the keychain and also changed their setting of trust to “always”.
But i would still get the error 61. Finally i remembered the fix: When you try to use citrix for the first time on a mac with safari you will be prompted to install the citrix web plugin for mac. This will not work (at least not in my case)! If you have already installed it, use the installer to deinstall it. Then download the latest Citrix Reciever for mac and install that.
For me this got rid of the ssl errors and everything has been running fine since then. I could reproduce this on two more macs since then. SSL wouldn’t work right with the plugin but great with the reciever.
Just my 2 cents. rws70 Says: April 2016 – WE FIXED IT! After trying everything the solution was very easy download the latest version of the Citrix Receiver client.
Or google “download citrix receiver client” for location. Install it and that worked. Version 12.1.100 TAGS: Citrix ICA Client Error 61 183 FIXED.

This helps me a lot. Paolo Says: None of the above solutions worked for me with Citrix Receiver 12.6.0 on El Capitan. What did work for me, was to download the certificate mentioned in the Citrix error message, in my case from here: And then I opened Keychain Access and dragged the certificate to the System keychain, confirmed my admin password, and when I tried to launch a Citrix app from Safari it worked fine.
Hope this helps someone.
