I have created a 2012 server and installed your HTML5Server and can connect to it ok. How do I install a packaged application so that it runs from my server. Basically I want to create a full working demo of an application that users can try by just clicking a link on my website page.
This is very good question. But, it seems that there is no that kind of functionality ... you still must be logged on Cameyo site with your credentials to run packaged applications ... even at your own server. I am trying to figure why they didn't provide capability to upload and run packaged applications at our servers, so we can share the link to our customer (even if we must pay for that kind of service reasonable amount of money) and that will be very professional service. Now you have to pay some cloud service (Windows 2012 VM) but no one except yourself cannot use it ... or am I missing something ?
There is another question: what about local printing ... is there any support for it ?
After uploading the packaged App, you play it yourself and then share the session from the menu at the bottom of the screen. This will give you the option to share for up to 7 days, and also you get the rdp code needed to allow anonymous users to play your application. Example "rdp.click/JpxQrDyM
Put that link on your website and when users click on it, they will get your application in the browser. If you are hosting your own HTML5 RDP server, then you have a possible 50 simultaneous remote session, each of these remote sessions has it's own virtualized setup.
I will work some more on this to see if anything else is interesting.
Everything is going good, I have had several sessions going all connecting to a different RemoteUser profile on my server.
** Not sure what is happening, but now every connection I make goes to RemoteUser2, so if I have several sessions going, they are all using RemoteUser2.

@Predrag The team has printing capabilities on its to-do list and expects to have it ready soon. If you received an email with the subject "Now you can host your own HTML5 server," then you will receive advice when printing is ready. Please register at online.cameyo.com if you are not on the mailing list.
@Setch, Thank you for posting your success. As long as you are connected as a RemoteUser, additional sessions from the same Cameyo account will connect as the same user. This is by design. Once a user disconnects from all sessions, the RemoteUser number may change the next time he connects.
My application uses CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA to get the storage location for some data.
If I play the application from MyAPPS it shows as c:\users\Remotuser1\AppData\Local which is correct,
If I play from Dropbox, then is shows as c:\users\administrator\appdata\local which is wrong and causes the app to fail.
When I edit my package there is an option on the General Tab for Datastorage. It defaults to /DropBox/USB, if I click the change option there is a Custom Location which would seem to be what I need, but the Package Editor does allow me to update, it always stays at the /Dropbox default
We discovered a bug, which we subsequently fixed. I don't know if your issue is related. Please try again. If it is not resolved, please upload your package somewhere and provide the url for it. If it is something you don't want to make available publicly, you can PM me the link. Thanks.

hi Mule,
I uploaded my package again to Dropbox and it now works as expected. The app is now seeing the correct Remoteuser appdata folder.
Another question. This works great if I run the rdp shared link from within my own network, but if I try from an outside source the connection terminates. Is that expected behaviour?

I am glad your package is reading the correct appdata location.
No, that is not expected behavior. I successfully ran a couple of shared sessions of different packages on a different network yesterday. Please try sharing a different package to see if you encounter the same problem.
