External Email - Exercise Caution

I have three guesses to explore -

Can you ping the SQL port on the SQL server from your Terminal server session?

2nd - I would open ever firewall on the terminal server Windows desktop - note: not recommended, but for testing does this solve anything?

Can you install the client on a desktop (non terminal server) and does it work there?  Again, ports and firewalls open to your SQL server would be needed, but it's a test.

I mention the above because I don't know your TS environment, how new, etc.  Firewalls and ports are typically the grief from my point of view.

Happy to chat if the above doesn't make sense, etc. [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>

Subject: Odd problem with TMS 2021r2 client - quits right after log-on

External Email - Exercise Caution
I'm working with GS support on this, but they say they've never heard of the problem before and we're having a hard time figuring out what's wrong. I wondered if anyone else has seen this problem or has any ideas about solving it.

We have installed and used some prior versions of the TMS client successfully on our "remote access "server (similar to Citrix, but just using MS Terminal Server).

The 2021r2 client was difficult to install, because of problems with installing the required dotnet frameworks, but that seems to be resolved. But now that the 2021r2 client is installed, it quits after login. The sequence is that it displays the login screen, and we successfully log in, because the Gallery Systems "splash screen" is displayed next. But after a couple seconds, the app just quits with no error message. There is an error shown on the Windows Application log, but neither GS nor our own IT staff seem to understand why the app is failing.

Just curious to see if any of you have seen this behavior, and if so, what you did to solve it. Thanks!
