Impossible to Log into iDrac 6 Enterprise
iDRAC Enterprise never works on login page which is a known issue all over the net. I can't log in via Firefox, IE11, Edge, nothing. It refreshes the login page or in IE11, logs me in and everything says "undefined". Yet, it works in Safari mobile. Worst platform ever.
Trying to update the firmware via mobile is impossible (just shows "progress" for over 15 minutes, not normal). I've already used the reset idrac tool numerous times. I even created a new ADMIN enabled via mobile browser, tried again via desktop. Nothing.
Why is their platform so useless and impossible to use? Seriously Dell, get a grip. Your download section is such a mess and overly confusing.
I'm guessing this is the correctly download page
and file, even though I cannot login to my idrac enterprise gui
ESM_Firmware_78M0V_WN32_1.98_A00.EXE
ESM_Firmware_78M0V_WN32_1.98_A00.EXE
I'm so fed up at this point and need help.
My local machine is Windows 10 64bit. I have java installed, latest version and I added all my
https://serverIP/login.html to the security whitelist in java too. Rebooted. Tried several browsers.
My server is running Centos 6.7 64bit Linux.
No Events found!

Try running this .bin directly on the server and not on your client system.

Hi,
Try adding the ip address as the exception to Java.

Please read my original post. " I have java installed, latest version and I added all my https://serverIP/login.html to the security whitelist in java too."

If you have Windows run ESM_Firmware_0F12K_WN32_1.99_A00.EXE from the Windows OS
Otherwise download iDRAC6_1.99_A00_FW_IMG.exe and upload the .d6 file in the iDRAC.
For Linux download http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=0F12K

I downloaded ESM_Firmware_78M0V_WN32_1.98_A00.EXE and it tells me it's not compatible with this system.
I'm running Windows 10 64bit locally.
All I want to do is update DRAC firmware/BIOS and be able to login normally.
Please keep in mind in my OP, I stated the server itself is running Centos 6.7

Hello,
Where's that file? Are you referring to windows, as in my local PC I'm running? I've never done this so it's all Greek to me at this point.

The update is 32 bit and there is not a 64 bit update, so you should just need to install the dependencies.

Does the account that you are using have root privileges?

Nevermind, please disregard last reply (with pastebin link). I installed the 32 bit dependencies.
I'll follow up in a bit with my results..
Thanks again
