PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
The web configurator is not
connecting to the Vantage
Report server.
The Vantage Report server
does not start up automatically.
Make sure you are using the correct URL. Enter
http://a.b.c.d:xxxxx/
vrpt
, where
•
a.b.c.d is the IP address of the Vantage Report server. If you open the
web configurator on the same computer on which you installed Vantage
Report, enter localhost.
•
xxxxx is the port number you entered during installation. (See section 2.)
For example, you might enter http://localhost:8080/vrpt or http://
212.100.9.161:9090/vrpt.
Make sure packets on TCP port 3316, UDP port 514, and the port number you
specified during installation are forwarded to the Vantage Report server,
especially if the Vantage Report server runs behind a NAT or firewall.
Make sure the Vantage Report server is running.
• The Vantage Report server runs as a service. Follow the directions in section
1.4 to check it.
• Make sure the following system variables are defined.
PATH=C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;C:\WINNT\System32\W
bem
The drive letter and names of folders depend on your Vantage Report server.
To check these variables in Windows 2000, click Start > Settings > Control
Panel > System > Advanced > Environment Variables. In Windows XP,
click start > Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment Vari-
ables. Make sure the variables are in the System Variables box.
• Delete
vrpt\conf\lastLogTime.txt in the Vantage Report installa-
tion directory. Then, restart the server.
• The Vantage Report server does not start automatically if there is a port con-
flict on the port number you specified during installation. Click Start > Run,
and enter
netstat -a to find out if there is a port conflict.
If the problem continues, contact your local vendor.
The web configurator returns
to the Login screen when I try
to do something.
For security reasons, the web configurator times out in fifteen minutes. Log in
again.
