Appendix A - Troubleshooting

If the post-installation validation failed, this often is due to some simple configuration issues that can be fairly easily resolved. This appendix lists some of the common configuration issues. If the issue cannot be resolved by following the steps in this section, contact the Customer Care Group. Be sure to include the log files that were generated during the installation process.

Verify the Data Collector Configuration

The Data Collector configuration file contains key information captured during the installation process. If the information was entered incorrectly, this may be the cause of the failure.

Check the Configuration File

1.Edit the configuration file.

Windows:

edit “C:\Program Files\Aptare\mbs\conf\wrapper.conf”

UNIX:

edit “/opt/aptare/mbs/bin/startup.sh” and "/opt/aptare/mbs/bin/updateconfig.sh"

2.Verify the values of the following parameters and update them, if necessary.

wrapper.app.parameter.2

Should match the Collector Name you specified in

 

“Configuring Data Collector Policies in the Portal” on

 

page 11.

wrapper.app.parameter.3

Should match the Passcode you specified in “Configuring

 

Data Collector Policies in the Portal” on page 11.

wrapper.app.parameter.4

For IN-HOUSE installations:

 

http://aptareagent.yourdomain.com

 

where: yourdomain.com has the appropriate value.

 

For APTARE HOSTED installations:

 

http://agent.storageconsole.com

 

For third-party HOSTED installations:

 

http://aptareagent.domain.com

 

where: domain.com has the appropriate value.

 

 

3.If you changed any of the configuration file parameters, you’ll need to:

•Restart the Data Collector service, as described in “Data Collector Manual Startup” on page 33.

•Re-run the installation validation utility, as described in “Validating the Installation” on page 27.
