I recently discovered on my Mac (MacOS Sierra 10.12.5, Citrix Receiver 12.5) that Citrix Receiver will not launch from Safari but will from Chrome. In chrome, the 'launch.ica' token downloads; double clicking on it sends it to the application and launches it.

Solution

SERVER SIDE CHANGES
For StoreFront deployments, modify web.config under the Receiver for Web (RfWeb) site (typically C:inetpubwwwrootCitrixStoreWeb) to activate the Citrix Receiver Launcher / Citrix Workspace App Launcher for Safari 12 and later.

1. Open web.config using your preferred text editor and locate the line : <protocolHandler enabled='true' platforms='(Macintosh|Windows NT).*((Firefox/((5[2-9]|[6789][0-9])|ddd))|(Chrome/((4[2-9]|[56789][0-9])|ddd)))' skipDoubleHopCheckWhenDisabled='false' />
2. The value of the platforms attribute is a regular expression specifying the browsers that Citrix Receiver Launcher is used for client detection and HDX launches. Change the regular expression to:

'(Macintosh|Windows NT).*((Firefox/((5[2-9]|[6789][0-9])|ddd))|(Chrome/((4[2-9]|[56789][0-9])|ddd)))|Macintosh.*Version/(1[2-9]|[2-9][0-9]).*Safari/'

3. This will add Safari 12 and later to the list of browsers that Citrix Receiver Launcher will be used.
CLIENT SIDE CHANGES

On a Mac Station running Safari 12 perform the following actions:

  • Launch Safari 12 Browser and select Safari from the Menu on top > go to Preferences and select it

  • In preferences > Select Advanced tab > check Checkbox 'Show Develop Menu in Menu Bar' (Located at the very bottom). This option will enable the Develop tab in Safari top menu

  • Close the preferences window by selecting the red circle on the top left corner
  • Go back to Safari Menu and select > Clear History

  • Then go to Safari Menu and select the Develop Tab > Empty Caches

  • Close All safari windows after this. Make sure no Safari Windows are left open.
  • Test using Safari 12 and browse to Storefront’s receiver for website URL.

CLIENT DETECTION BEHAVIOR ON SAFARI 12
  • Go to https://StorefrontURL/Citrix/StoreNameWeb (Added your storefront IP or hostname)
  • The first thing a user should see when testing going internally to Storefront’s Website is to detect Receiver/Workspace App. Please select “Detect Receiver/Workspace App”. Image below shows test using receiver.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS

Citrix Receiver App For Mac

Problem Cause

Citrix UPD requires the use of the PostScript data format to support client printing on Mac and Linux clients. To achieve this, Citrix leverages PostScript driver developed by HP. The version of this HP driver, that Microsoft had previously built into the Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 operating systems, is no longer included with Windows 10, Server 2012 R2. Because of this missing driver, client-printers on Mac and Linux endpoints fail to be created in the XenApp and XenDesktop session.
