Version Control - Error Retreiving Repository

Shawn Leblanc — Mon, 06 Nov 2006 16:23:41 GMT

I can't seem to access the VCRM in HP SIM. This is the error I get.

Error retrieving repository. Be sure a trust relationship is established with the repository device.

Any thoughts?

Shawn

Do you have a Trust established between HPSIM and the Server? What happens if you launch from the HW Icon for that server, do you go straight to the SMH?

Thanks Rob,

Funny you ask, I just tried that and I get.

An error occurred while formatting the page for display

I've never seen this before mind you this is the first time we have really wanted to use HP Sim fully and the VCRM.

That's a new one on me, what versions etc.
The VCA / VCRM also uses an account / password that needs to be configured as part of the VCA.
I've had most success using a local account on the VCRM Server rather than a Domain Account.

I will try changing the credentials and see if that fixes it. We downloaded the latest version of HP Sim a few days ago.

On one of our servers when accessing the VCA I got an error formatting the display.
Interestingly the LOG tab displayed correctly, and showed various XML Errors.
I restarted the VCA and the error went away.
I've only seen this on one Server so far and it was a W2K Server. Not sure if that's relevant.
