FireFox external app not working

[rvreugde]

Hello,

I am trying to add Firefox (37.0.1) as an external app, but I got an unhandled exception...

Settings Ext. application:

• File name: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
  
• Working directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
  
• Arguments: -new-tab %destination%
  

Connection:

• Name: NetScaler
  
• Destination: 192.168.84.130
  
• Protocol: Ext.App.
  
• Pre-Start-App: FireFox
  

Can somebody help?

BTW, I need Firefox, not the built-in browser...

Normally you should not use Pre-Start-App for that - if you want to use Ext.App. as protocol you should add the Role "Ext. Application" and configure there your external app - second %destination% should be %ComputerName% - but it seems not to work either... we are currently trying to integrate FireFox engine as integrated control - will be available in one of the next patches...

Thanks for your answer. It would be fine if FF could be integrated because some management sites need FF...

Oliver:

I can get one FireFox session running but if I try another one I get an error that says "Application has Exited or has no Main Window". I need multiple FF sessions as well, as more and more apps seem to be incompatible with IE.

Patch6 will have GeckoFX engine- will be published in a few days

Hi

Have installed Update 6, but still problems with inbound Browser, when connecting to https destinations.

Solved as following:

Settings Ext. application:

• File name: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
  
  
• Working directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
  
  
• Arguments: -new-tab %WebUrl%
  
  

Connection:

• Name: <As you wish>
  
  
• URL: https://<ip> or <URL adress with Port - example https://yourdomain:8080>
  
  
• Protocol: Ext.App.
  
  
• Pre-Start-App: FireFox

You answered on a really old post - did you install version 2019 Patch6 or any older main version?

If version 2019 did you also install vcredist 2015? https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/download...x?id=48145
