If you were using another version of PC*MILER Rail with PC*MILER Rail-Connect and/or PC*MILER Rail-BatchPro in your Citrix environment, there may be existing files that require deletion. Citrix and Terminal Servers can have multiple copies underneath C:\Users\<username>\Windows, C:\Documents and Settings\ <username>\Windows or in %homedir%\windows like H:\Windows. Copies of the pcrsrv.ini and pcrsrvXX.ini (“XX” being a version number) should be deleted from any location outside of C:\WINDOWS.

Before Using PC*MILER Rail

Citrix supports 16 bit and 24 bit color, while PC*MILER Rail supports 16 bit and 32 bit color. A Citrix end user must set the color resolution on their workstation to 16 bit before they log into a Citrix server to run PC*MILER Rail. If an end user has their color resolution set to 32 bit and logs in to Citrix, the Citrix software will adjust it downward to 24 bit prior to loading PC*MILER Rail, and the application will fail to load.
