Running SPP Version 2014.02.0 on Server Core

DoJu · ‎03-18-2014

Hi Everyone,

I try to run hpsum.bat on SPP 2014.02.0 but receive the following error:

C:\Admin\SPPMDSLWIN2014020.2014_0129.3\hp\swpackages>hpsum
Launching default web browser to HP SUM login URL:
http://localhost:63001/index.html?session_id=s1931402221404&lang=en
Recommended minimum browsers: Internet Explorer 9, Firefox 18, Chrome 24
Waiting for engine to be shutdown...

HPsum used to be a 7MB executable and would execute on Server Core.

Now it's .bat file and I cannot run given the above.

Please advise.

You must run hpsum.exe not .bat

hpsum.exe is no longer an option on this new version

For server core installations, you have to rely on another server/laptop, temporary disable the firewall or create rule expcetions for hpsum and access viw browser ....

It is kind of a PITA .. Go to this thread and click me too (maybe someone at HP puts someone on this) ...
