Hi All -
I have installed 4.1 vCenter Server on a brand spankin' new VM. All went well except I rec'd an error during the install "Warning 25205.Error loading licensekey to LDAP Server". The install continued and stated that it was successful.
I read on the forum that this is caused by the firewall being on and blocking port 389. Indeed our firewall was on, so I disabled it.
Do I need to re-install vCenter Server after I disable the firewall?
If I do need to re-install, it looks as though I have to uninstall and then re-install... What will that do to my database that was supposedly upgraded? Anything?
The reason I ask is because (1) vCenter Server will not start and (2) Configure Tomcat is in my start menu and when I try to launch it, it gives me access denied error.
As an FYI.. I do still have the old 32bit vCenter Server available, but vCenter Server is disabled on it. I can start the service on the old 4.0 32bit vCenter Server and everything works fine. From what I have read, this should not be the case since 32bit is not compatible with the 64bit database, so something did not update the database like it should have or am I mistaken? --> UPDATE, I was incorrect, I cannot start the service back up on the old vCenter Server, so disregard this info.
The only error I am seeing on the database server side is the following:
Login failed for user 'Domain\VMGR01_64$'. Reason: Token-based server access validation failed with an infrastructure error. Check for previous errors. [CLIENT: 10.10.2.108]
No previous errors.
Thank you for your help.
see if this helps
yeah, I saw that article but I have no errors on the SQL side.. :smileyconfused:
I think I will just uninstall and then re-install
if this is a start from scratch build, I too would rebuild. No harm, no foul.
Rock n roll.. All is well. Uninstalled vCenter Server and re-installed and everything is working excellent now. Thanks for your help, Troy!
Have a good one!
