Solution
u
Remove the proxy settings so that the device no longer uses a proxy.
Connecting to a Server in Workspace ONE Mode
If you cannot connect to a server directly through Horizon Client, or if your desktop and application
entitlements are not visible in Horizon Client, Workspace ONE mode might be enabled on the server.
Problem
n
When you try to connect to the server directly through Horizon Client, Horizon Client redirects you to
the Workspace ONE portal.
n
When you open a desktop or application through a URI or shortcut, or when you open a local file
through file association, the request redirects you to the Workspace ONE portal for authentication.
n
After you open a desktop or application through Workspace ONE and Horizon Client starts, you
cannot see or open other entitled remote desktops or applications in Horizon Client.
Cause
Beginning with Horizon 7 version 7.2, a Horizon administrator can enable Workspace ONE mode on a
Connection Server instance. This behavior is normal when Workspace ONE mode is enabled on a
Connection Server instance.
Solution
Use Workspace ONE to connect to a Workspace ONE enabled server and access your remote desktops
and applications.
