Cannot run more than one instance of a remote app in remote desktop services Server 2012

All,
I installed "Remote Desktop Services (RDS) Quick Start Deployment for RemoteApp, Windows Server 2012 Style" using the instructions here http://blogs.technet.com/b/yungchou/archive/2013/02/07/remote-desktop-services-rds-quick-start-deployment-for-remoteapp-windows-server-2012-style.aspx
I need to set up an image viewing program (Olyvia) to allow students using Macs and iPads access to this windows only application in order for them to get their work done.  We may have 12 or more students accessing and trying to run the Olyvia application
at any one time.
All works good, except that I cannot run the Olyvia application (setup as a remoteapp program) more than one instance at a time.  That is, when I start up "olyvia" on a Mac, it works great.  If I leave it up and running, and then try
and start up "olyvia" on an iPad (using different accounts), I get the following error message:
"Cannot run more than one instance of this program simultaneously.  Either the program is already running, or it has not been terminated completely."
I need to understand the root issue.
1.  Is this a licensing issue?  So, I need to add some CALs to the RDS server?
2.  Is this a application issue with "olyvia"?  So, no matter what I do, it is not going to be able to be used by more than one person at a time when configured as a remoteapp?
3.  Did I not "publish" the application correctly?
4.  Is this happening because I followed the "quick start" guide?
Appreciate any help I can get on this.  We have no problem getting CALs, I just need some help with the root issue.
Thanks,

Hi Geoff,
Each application uses different techniques for determining if multiple instances are running.  If you can determine what method it is using then perhaps you could use App-V or other virtualization software.
In the best case you really should direct your question to the maker of Olyvia.  The reason I said that is they specifically designed their software to prevent multiple instances, so the first question is, why?  Is it related to Licensing? 
Compatibility?  If you knew the specific reason(s) why they are doing it and the technique used then at the point using a virtualization technique may be the best option.

  • Using the the multiple profiles and running more than one instance of Fire fox at atim

    I use F/F in a gaming situation I needed to be able to run more than one session at a time and read about a feature called multiple profiles. Then I read iin another forum that I could have multiple instances with the following bat file :
    @echo off
    set MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1
    start "" "C:\Documents and Settings\Hilton Wiggins\My Documents\Fire Fox non Beta\firefox.exe" -p-no-remote
    set MOZ_NO_REMOTE=0
    I also have the Beta 4.06 on my machine and even though the batch file directs it to wither the Beat or the Non Beta they both seem to track the profiles and can be used in either version.
    However It's not working as I described running two browsers with grease monkey it will start to mis handle data and they both lock up

    There is no need to set MOZ_NO_REMOTE, remove that part of the bat file. Change the start line to:
    start "" "C:\Documents and Settings\Hilton Wiggins\My Documents\Fire Fox non Beta\firefox.exe" -no-remote -p "profile name"

  • Running more than one instance of the database on oracle 9i

    I have a oracle 9i database on linux 8 . I had created a database db1 . Its working fine
    then i created another database db2 on the same server.
    When i am trying to start the database with the command

    How can i resolve it. My other database is running fine at startup also.

    Hi
    the SID is an environment variable, so try:

  • Possible to run more than one iDVD at one time?

    Hiya, I'm currently running a nice shiny QuadG5 and when running iDVD6 I've noticed it doesn't use all the resources my machine has to offer (it usually hovers at around 130% out of 400%). Does anyone know if it's possible to run more than one instance of iDVD06 at once? I was thinking about creating a copy of the whole iDVD app and seeing but it's running a render right now so i can't disturb it. Seems a shame to have those yummy G5's sitting there doing naff all.
    cheers, Dave

    on my other hp scanner and copier i could set the no of copies i wanted. on this one i cannnot find that option.
    thanks for the reply

  • Running Air in More than One Instance of an Application

    Is there a work around to allow more than one instances of an Air Application to run?
    Currently our client uses dual monitors  they will spin up two applications.  One is to Inquiry data the other is to enter data.  I know I can create another project and deploy it under another name but that seems clunky.
    We are using  AIR  with Flex/Blaze/FlexMdi.
    Any information would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Steve

    Hi,
    I'm not too sure if the workaround proposed below will work or not. But it seems worth a shot:
    Create a new window when you get the invoke event. Find your desired screen's bounds by going through the static array Screen.screens. Assign that bounds to your newly created window.

  • Can I open more than one instance of CC5.2?

    In my experience, I have not been able to find a way to open more than one instance of CC5.2.  If I want to run an SOD user analysis and an SOD role analysis, for example, I have to run one and wait for the results to return before I can run the next analysis.  
    If I open a new instance of Internet Explorer and type in the url for CC5.2 while CC5.2 is already running in a separate instance, it overwrites whatever is running and reopens CC5.2 all over again.
    In CC4.0 I was able to open multiple SAP sessions and run multiple SOD reports.  I understand 5.2 is a web app, but it seems the code should be smart enough to allow me to open multiple IE instances to run multiple analyses. 
    Am I missing something?
    Thanks,
    Sandy

    Hi Sandy,
      What about option to run your analysis jobs on the background ?
      You can still be in your IE session, but schedule several analysis to run on the background. On completion of the jobs, you'll be able to check output results for each of them.
      Advantage of this is that it also doesn't depend on your link between your machine and CC server which could be an issue for the foreground jobs.
    Best regards,

  • WebLogic Error : Registered more than one instance with the same objectName

    HI there, I'm facing a big problem. I have two environments installed on the same physical machine.
    I have ALSB and WLI servers running out there.
    Environment 1 - WLI port running at 7011 domain name : stp_wli_domain and ALSB port running at 8011 domain name: stp_alsb_homo1 - folders- stp_wli_domain / stp_bea_alsb_homo
    Environmnet 2 - WLI port running at 7211 domain name : stp_wli_domain2 and ALSB port tunning at 8211 domain name : stp-alsb_homo2 - folders - stp_wli_domain2 / stp_bea-alsb_homo2
    Everything was working fine, but these days I had install new deployments on both environment and I got this error :
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Registered more than one instance with the same objectName : stp_wli_domain:ServerRuntime=wli_wls01,Name=stp_wli_domain,Location=wli_wls01,Type=AIRuntime new:com.bea.wlai.management.AIRuntimeMBeanImpl@bcf22dc existing com.bea.wlai.management.AIRuntimeMBeanImpl@de02e6c
    The weird is : There is no same object name, as you can see, domains are different, folders are different and ports are diferrent, including multicast addresses.
    Have you guys seen this before ?
    I'm under pressure here, 'cause some projects had stopped to work.
    Please I would appreciate any help.
    Tks.

    HI there, thanks for attention..
    See ...
    There's a lot of confusion with these env's .
    I did not built this, so... I'm cleaning my hands.... anyway... :)
    I must fix....
    Well basically if we have two env's, so we have different project each one right ?
    Ok, but I was told that if you have on the same network and same physical machine the name of AdminServer as "AdminServer" in all domains, so it goes with problems... I never heard about it... but is a good practice you put the names for example :
    WLI - WLIAdminServer
    ALSB - AlsbAdminServer
    WLI2 - WLiadminServer2
    ALSB2 - ALsbAdminServer2
    I would do it.. this way..
    But how it wasn't me...
    We got..
    WLI - WliAdminServer
    ALsb - AdminServer
    WLI2 - AdminServer
    ALsb2 - AdminServer
    Have you got it ?
    So... I was told that this could be a problem, almost all AdminServers with the same name... guess what ?Some Projects are back to work. but not at all.. only some.. so I 'm breathing better now... but I would like to know if you seen this before ?
    I would appreciate your help again.
    Unfortunately there's no detailed stack trace to track this
    Tks.

  • Can I launch more than one instance?

    Can I launch more than one instance of the same AIR
    application?

    Check out page 309 of the AIR Dev Guide "Only one instance of
    an AIR application is started. When an already running application
    is invoked again, AIR dispatches a new invoke event to the running
    instance. It is the responsibility of an AIR application to respond
    to an invoke event and take the appropriate action (such as opening
    a new document window)."
    It looks like we have to handle this InvokeEvent.INVOKE event
    and programatically create a new instance of the application.
    If anyone's done this already an example would be a big help
    as this will be a VERY common use case.

    You must have a class (code) to start each "application". To keep the environments clean from each other you can use a class loader.

  • Can i create more than one instance for single database?

    HI
    anybody can tell me how to create more than one instance for single database(without using RAC)?
    thanks
    Kalanidhi

    Anandji,
    I sometimes think differently. I also think like what this person is asking..(although I have installed and administering 5 different RAC databases)
    The main doubt of mine is that we create multiple instances accessing the same storage area.
    Anyway the controlfiles of all instances will have the same information except the instance_names and instance id's.
    Hence I always think , why can't it be possible to to create another instance in the same system and point it to a controlfile which is copied from the other instance.
    Why can't the same files be shared between the two instances in a same system ?
    I know I am thinking a little bit confusing...
    Anyway I need to test that also...

  • Can I create more than one instance of a native library?

    Hello all,
    I am using Java to access a Win32 DLL with JNI. Everything is working fine, but I have several threads using the same instance of the native library because it is loaded "statically" in the Java class which uses it, and I suspect I am getting a bottle-neck at the native library.
    Does anyone know if there is any way to load more than one "instance" of a native library?
    The use of System.loadLibrary() would indicate not, and my (limited) knowledge of the Windows environment would tell me that a "shared" library only has on instance. (confirm anyone?)
    I need to find a way around this bottle-neck issue... (and "no", before anyone suggests it, I can't ditch Windows!)
    Thanks.

    I am not sure about the behaviour of the dll as it's not mine. It's a COM DLL which I have "wrapped" in a standard windows DLL so I can expose the JNI methods. I assume because it's COM that it IS reentrant, but I am a bit of a novice when it comes to Windows and COM. I didn't install the COMponent either, it was installed as part of another application. (It's an antivirus COM dll that is part of an AV application)
    Thanks for your help though, I think I will just have to live with it.

  • Since downloading the iOS on my iPad, I cannot download more than one pdf from mail to iBooks.  I have to shut down y iPad and start again.  Any suggestions?

    Since downloading iOS on my new iPad, I cannot downlaod more than one pdf from mail into iBooks.  I have to shut down my iPad and restart it to save a second pdf. Wasn't a problem with the old operating system.  Any suggestions?

    It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
    Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.

  • How to install more than one instances on one machine

    Hi ALL,
    I want to install more than one instances on one machine, but i am a freshman on SAP field. How and where can i get the related infomation for that? thank you very much !!

    Hi tieyan,
    Glad the information was of some help.
    For Windows, there is an older note <a href="http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/28392">28392</a> that has some more information. It is important also that the SAP parameter PHYS_MEMSIZE is sized correctly according to note <a href="http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/88416">88416</a> (the bottom of the note gives some examples). For example, if there were two central instances and the two Oracle database instances on one host, PHYS_MEMSIZE for both instance profiles (of the central instances) would be 35% of the RAM (1/2 of 70%). In the case of MSSQLSRV 2000, for PHYS_MEMSIZE you would refer to the scenarios of note <a href="http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/327494">327494</a>.
    If you ever want to thank somebody else for helping in answering a question, the <a href="https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/HOME/RulesofEngagement">Rules of Engagement</a> has a section 'Thank Others by Giving Points' that explains this further.

    If i need to implement clustering and load balancing for tomcat server then do we need to go for 2 different servers for production environment?
    Yes, you would need two, or more, servers.
    Also please guide me on how to implement clustering and load balancing for tomcat server by running 2 instances on 2 different machine? I'm a newbie to it..
    It should have no (or at least minimal) impact on the code (as long as you are using beans, sessions, and the other components properly). It is handled by the web container (by the tomcat in this case). The tomcat documentation should show how to set it up (if it supports it all, I don't know, we don't have Tomcat at work, and at home I use only a single).
