Problems with initial web page et al
hello,
I just downloaded Foglight and created a VM from the .ova file.
Logging into the Foglight server worked from the console - I needed to manually change the ipaddress.
I can ping the Foglight server from a workstation on another subnet.
Following the instructions, I am then to connect with a web browser.
This fails as if the server is not up.
Port 80 appears to not be open, but tomcat is running. Netstat -ano says tomcat has no open ports.
On a probablly related note, when I attempt to use putty (ssh) to this guest VM, I am challenged for a password, and
enter the default one from the install doc, but this fails with access denied.
When i use ssh from a linux box on the subnet, it registers the machine, then drops the connection. Subsequent connections from this host fail with a 'man in the middle' warning.
Ideas?
Thanks -
Rob

Hi Rob,
When you changed the IP address, did you use the script /usr/local/vkernel/scripts/changeIp.sh? If you tried setting it manually using other methods, Tomcat's configuration files will not be updated, and so the web server will not respond.
The default login/password for SSH use is vkernel/vkernel. Some people type it as "vkernal" but it is "vkernel". Root will not function over SSH. You will need to "su" to root once you've connected as vkernel.

Hi Brad -
Thanks for responding.
Using the changeIp.sh script a second time seems to have solved my problems - I'm able to log into tomcat, and ssh as vkernel works as well.
Thanks for your time!
