What kind of error do you have in your eventlog? Normally it's AV related, ctxgfx.exe not excluded
Exclusions for the VDA: %SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\CtxUvi.sys %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Temp\Citrix\HDXRTConnector\*\*.txt %ProgramFiles%\Citrix\User Profile Manager\UserProfileManager.exe %ProgramFiles%\Citrix\Virtual Desktop Agent\BrokerAgent.exe %ProgramFiles%\Citrix\HDX\bin\CtxSvcHost.exe %ProgramFiles%\Citrix\HDX\bin\ctxgfx.exe

thanks bud, i saw that too...they don't have trend micro
b
Happens with almost all AV Vendors. Same issue today at a customer with Defender
n
yes, they have all that blocked
b
%ProgramFiles%\Citrix\HDX\bin\ctxgfx.exe --> related to CVAD 2112 and your VDA with 2203 is newer
n
i mean they have all that unblocked
update: ctxgfx.exe is not in the list of exclusions so i am adding that now.
no luck
so i removed the graphic card and it works fine
not sure how that is causing the issue
#CK6TCV3JN - anyone have any other ideas for me to try?

Are they by chance modifying any ctxhooks with GPO? I now it may have worked before you upgraded. I'm just thinking what could be happening. @Jeremy Saunders has a beautiful write on a section here. https://www.jhouseconsulting.com/2019/07/18/citrix-virtual-delivery-agent-vda-post-install-script-2015 Another link https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX312452/grey-screen-when-launching-the-applications-or-desktops-ctxuvi-event-id-1005-and-1003

On your image check for the UviEnabled =1 value under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CtxUvi. After hitting the 2203 CU2 on Server 2022 update issue (https://discussions.citrix.com/topic/417832-cvad-connectionfailure-after-install-ltsr-2203-cu2-on-server-2022/page/3/) I had a grey screen issue after fixing it. Adding the missing reg key back into the image resolved it for me.

My post install script runs on every build I do, which sets UviEnabled to 1, so I would never pick this up. Great information @Aaron O'Reilly, and thanks for tagging me in @Ray Davis. I am beautiful 🙂
