There are three
protocols used by clients for accessing virtual desktops. Those protocols
are:
·
HTTPS – HTTPS (port 443) is used by Horizon clients to handle user
authentication and the initial communications with the Connection or Security
server.
·
HTTP – HTTP(Port 80) is also used by Horizon clients to handle user
authentication and the initial communications with the Connection Server
·
PCoIP – PCoIP (port 4172) is the remote display protocol that is
used between the Horizon Client and the remote desktop.
·
Blast – Blast (port 8443) is the remote display protocol used by
HTML5-compatible web browsers.
Display Protocol or Black Screen Error will come when
there is firewall issues are there. You can check this by telnet 4172.
Once you have Verified in client side you able ping
connection server IP and FQDN and also able to Telnet Ports 80(http), 443(https),
4172(PCoIP). You need to verify in backend
Check status in Connection Server Web
Option 1
Protocol Failure
Check Service VMware Blast is started or not. If it’s not
started start service.
If you see Service VMware Blast is started. May be somewhere
port is blocking. Do a restart I will resolve this issue.
Option 2
User says not able to connect and in web console you see
as connected, some connection conflict is happening.
When I open Console I do see session as connected from VM console status
So I need to close session from Backend and open it again
from Front end.
Right Click on particular desktop and click on Disconnect
Session..
Click ok
Once it’s disconnected, ask user to connect
Connection should establish now, if it’s not working try last
option save session Doc and Excel and Logoff or Restart and then check in
connection server web status. Once it becomes available ask user to connect. It
will work.
Option 3
If you see display Protocol Error in Client and View web
console you see
When I open a console I see everything looks fine
Some time with any apps or system Explorer.exe will
become non responsive. In this case either you can login via user credentials and
open task managers and open New Task
Type explorer.exe
Click OK
Lock the screen and ask user to try again. If it’s not
working save session Doc and Excel and Logoff or Restart and then check in
connection server web status. Once it becomes available ask user to connect. It
will work.
Option 4
