Error description

• Customer would like to know if Provisioning Application Tool for
  Lotus Notes 8.5.1 FP1 is supported under Citrix Presentation
  Server 4.5.
  He wants to deliver features and plugins using Provisioning
  Application Tool for Lotus Notes 8.5.1 (FP1) and he is using the
  tool as described below:
  
  http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/ledoc/v6r2/topic/com.ib
  m.rcp.tools.doc.admin/provisioningappusingProvisioninginterfaces
  _usingProapp.html
  
  To deliver the feature to local installed Lotus Notes Client
  8.5.1 FixPack 1 the customer is using this command-line:
  
  rcplauncher -application
  
  com.ibm.rcp.provisioning.application.ProvisioningApplication  -
  
  provisioningOperation provision Installation_pass2.xml
  
  -provisioningStatusLog provisioningresult.log
  
  
  
  Obvious Result is:
  
  Lotus Notes 8.5.1 starts bringing up the Splash Screen, executes
  (obviously) the script and shuts down again
  
  The result in the LogFile (provisioningresult.log) is as
  follows:
  1267444007151;0;0;0;0;0;Preparing to install features;

  The Problem:
  
  ==========
  
  Using this deployment on a Lotus Notes 8.5.1 (FP1) Client
  installed on
  Citrix Presentation Server does not work properly
  
  for Endusers using Notes under Citrix.
  
  Current analysis:
  
  ============
  
  - Using this same deployment steps on a Lotus Notes 8.5.1 (FP1)
  Client
  installed on a local PC works properly
  
  - Under Citrix we checked and observed this
  
   - [Notes-ProgramDirectory]\framework\rcp\rcplauncher.properties
  
  contains:  install.configuration=multiuser
  
   - [Notes-DataDirectory]\workspace\.config\rcpinstall.properties
  
  contains:  install.configuration=multiuser
  
   - Features and Plugins are transfered to directory
  framework\shared
  (common installation directory) properly
  
   - installed feature seems NOT TO BE INSTALLED, when Enduser
  uses Notes
  
  
  Currently observed difference between Citrix-Installation and
  (properly
  working) local installation:
  
  ================================================================
  ======
  Under local installation the file
  framework\rcp\deploy\install.xml
  reflects last administrative installation:
  
  - <installfeature description="None" id="Admin.added.requests"
  name="
  None" required="false" show="false" version="1.0.0">
  
  - <requirements>
  
    <feature action="install" id="a.domino.test.jigloo.feature"
  shared="
  true" url="http://xxx/notes8test/site.xml" version="1.0.11" />
  
    </requirements>
  
    </installfeature>
  
  Under Citrix this file DOES NOT REFLECT this last administrative
  installation (there is no installfeature with
  id="Admin.added.requests")
