Currently CitrixOfflinePlugin.exe can be deployed using Citrix Receiver Updater, which installs
- Streaming Client
- Bouquet of VC runtime Transmitted (05 and 08)
- Rule AppHubWhiteList if necessary
But if someone does not need VC redistributable installed for some reason the current solution is to extract the MSI CitrixOfflinePlugin.exe and install the MSI. But the MSI installation must be done manually, the receiver can not deliver updater MSI because Offline Plug-in XML Metadata for the receiver only supports EXE installer based.
To overcome this problem, we will modify the XML metadata for offline plug-in, so it can start supporting MSI streaming instead of .exe. XenAppStreamingMetaData.xml has to be changed as below to make it work with MSI:
Once the modification is complete, we can upload the XML Metadata and MSI to Merchandising Server and can provide MSI + AppHubWhitelist Updater receiver to clients. Along the XML that is modified to provide Offline Plug-in (XenAppStreamed) MSI, using Citrix Receiver Updater XenAppStreamingMetaData
