Login fails after any change in the server IP address

Description

Login from WebUI fails after any change in the NetVault Server IP address.

Symptom

When you try to log in, the NetVault WebUI displays a message that the server is not accessible.

Solution

After any change in the IP address of the NetVault Server (for example, due to reassignment at reboot by DHCP), you must clear the browser cache before logging in to the NetVault WebUI. Otherwise, the login may fail with a message that the server is not accessible. Alternatively, you can assign a static IP address to the NetVault Server.

Unexpected behavior of NetVault WebUI

Description

NetVault WebUI displays improper strings or names and other object-related issues on any browser.

Symptom

NetVault WebUI behaves unexpectedly displaying various improper names, strings, incorrect button labels, and so on.

Solution

To resolve the issue, clear the browser cache and history and then login again to the NetVault WebUI. Perform this activity after you upgrade your NetVault system.

WebUI does not run in Compatibility View in Internet Explorer

Description

The NetVault WebUI does not run in Compatibility View in Internet Explorer.

Symptom

If Compatibility View is enabled for the site in Internet Explorer, the following error message is displayed when you try to access NetVault: “Compatibility view is not supported. Use a different browser or remove this site from the list of websites using Compatibility View to properly view the application.”

Solution

Remove the site from the list of websites using Compatibility View or use a different browser.

NetVault installer fails during push installation

Description

Push installation fails for a target client.

Symptom

The following error message appears in the task log:

NetVault installer for the core package failed with error 1.

Solution

There are several reasons why an installation can fail. The information in the installation log file can help you diagnose and troubleshoot the issue. You can find the log file in the system temporary directory. (The TEMP environment variable for system account determines the location of this directory; this path is typically set to %windir%\Temp.)

Depending on the stage at which the installation process fails, the installer may create a file named netvault_{GUID}_install.log or bitrock_installer.log (or bitrock_installer_nnn.log).

If you are unable to resolve the issue, contact Quest Technical Support.
