problem installing latest Smart Storage Administator

cesarpegado — Tue, 21 Mar 2017 15:14:04 GMT

I have a dl380 G7 which When i install the latest Smart storage administrator (2.60.18.0) it installs fine, but when i try to run it get the following error

"The Smart Storage Administrator (SSA) cannot execute in this browser environment.

Possible reasons include:

•The installed version of your web browser is not supported. Supported browsers include:
◦Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.0 and later.

•The current settings of the browser are preventing scripts from being run. Required settings include:
◦Native XMLHTTP support must be enabled."

So I am still running i.e. 8 on this server, so i tried to install 9, but the only offline installer i can find keeps saying its not the correct o/s and i'm running windows 2008 r2 (64) whic the microsoft link takes me to a vista / 2008 installer but fails.

I've tried installing chrome and firefox neother of them seems to make this load different. Anyone know a way i can change the startin line so it forces this to run in chrome or firefox, as when i sttart this program i don't know if its still trying to use i.e. 8

You can boot the offline version of HPE SSA

The problem isn't the installing part, i've tried getting the online installer, i've also run the installer through the SPP to install it.

The installer completes fine with no errrors. But when i try to run the installed program i get the following error in the error.jpg i've attached to this post

My suggestion was to use the offline version which does not rely on the host OS. You boot from the offline media

So i've managed to get it working only be associating it with system management homepage, not ideal but it does work.

Would be nice to have it working without having to go through the system management homepage

Finally is there a solutionto fix this or force SSA use IE8 or Chrome?

Installing Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 2008 R2 is a mess... earlier versions unavailable... Windows 2008 R2 have IE8 by default... why making things unnecessarely complicated?

Hello,

The only workaround for this is: run Chrome and open page:
