ERROR Login - Fabric Manager 3.3(1c)
We've installed fabric manager server 3.3(1c) onto a Windows 2003 server. I install the fabric manager client locally from the server using the web interface for fabric manager. When I try to connect to the fabric manager server (the fm server is surly.xxx.xxx.xxx) I get the following error.
Unable to login to server! Cannot connect with FMS on surly.xxx.xxx.xxx:1099
RootCause:Unknown host: SURLY; nested exception is:
java.net.UnknownHostException: SURLY.
Please verify that FMS is installed and running.
FMS is installed and running because I can RDP to the server and run it, I can login from other workstations and it works. I can install and run device manager from my workstation and that works. I've turned off my firewall. I've uninstalled all the versions of Java I have on the machine thinking it might be a java version issue and am now running 1.5.0_09 which is recommended by the FM Server when you install the client. There is a filter on the Vlan that the FM server is on but my workstation is allowed to any port in and out and the workstations that it does work on are not on the Vlan so I don't think the ACL is in the way. I can telnet to port 1099 on the server. I've tried just the ip address and not the dns name in the login dialog and that doesn't work. I'm out of ideas.

I had this in my C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\host file
192.168.xxx.xxx hostname.ourdomain.umn.edu
He had me change it to
same ipaddress hostname
and now it works. I only have to have the windows host name in the fmserver address window, no port number. Very odd but it works now. We do some strange things with cutting up vlans around here (MASSIVE ip network) so they thought that might have had something to do with it.

So I guess before it was working fine and after the dns / host file change the issue came up ?
Oh well, you're fine !
