I have installed GodMine 5.5 on one of my server and created a shared so user can access it using a shortcut to it's executable Gm5.exe from a mapped drive. From citrix MF 1.8, I mapped a drive and I can access it with problem, and I published using the same mapped drive. As a published apps, it would run perfect and not for any other user even if you make them an admin, I keep getting a message saying can not fined the drive G:\ for example, and that's not true, the drive is there and part of the user profile. Any idea why? your urgent help is appreciated.

Sounds like the drive mapping is not being created for the user who's trying to run the app. Probably easiest to create a batch file and publish that rather than the executable eg create a text file called "GoGold.bat" and put something like the following lines in it:

@echo off
net use g: /del /y
net use g: \\servername\sharename
g:\gm5.exe
net use g: /del
exit

and then publish "GoGold.bat"

Cheers
