Cannot view SIM at address other than localhost

Chuck Hellige — Wed, 01 Sep 2004 17:22:47 GMT

I upgraded from Insight Manager 7 to SIM 4.1. I can start the SIM console at https://localhost:50000/login.jsp but if I change "localhost" to the "servername" then the login process does not work. After entering username/password/domain I get "The page cannot be found". My goal is to be able to accesss the web-console remotly from a browser but so far I can't even get to it locally unless I use localhost. I have searched for articles on how to set this up and can find none. Please help

Sounds like a DNS problem. What happens if you use the IP address? The SIM box listens on port 280 so you should be able to get to http://"serverip":280 Then it will automatically redirect to https and port 50000.

Thanks so much. That was the issue. (Also I did not realize the I was going to port 280, I thought it was 50000.

Thanks again
