HP SIM doesn't start up
don't know if you can help, having problems setting up HP SIM.
SIM has been previously installed on the network but i've decided to move the manager from one server to another.
But having installed it on this server i'm now unable to configure it.
I've still as yet been unable to run the first time wizard. When i double-click on the SIM icon, the 'checking http service'splash comes up, but does not advance from here regardless of how long i leave it.
Looking at task manager, cpu is maxed out, mostly on mxpassword.exe and mxdomainmgr.exe.
mxinventory.exe is also creating multiple instances and expanding to several GB of memory if left.
I saw that there was another thread relating to this, but that seemed due to a changed password. I haven't even go into SIM once since install when passwords were accepted. No passwords have changed.
Please help, it's driving me mad..
thanks
Stuart

Re: HP SIM doesn't start up

Re: HP SIM doesn't start up
one thing it may be, the splash screen will sit there timing out if its unable to open the database.
Make sure that the database is running.
Also, check the ODBC system DSN for SIM and run the test. If that fails SIM wont run.
Sorry I haven't got more!

Re: HP SIM doesn't start up
i agree it looks like a database issue.
i've reinstalled about 5 times now, pointing to a different SQL database each time..getting confused..
i've also tried creating a new database for it and pointing it to this..
is there any means of reconfiguring that anyone can think of, other than a reinstall?

Re: HP SIM doesn't start up
The reason I ask is that by default IIS listens on all IP addresses (even if you explicitly set 1 within IIS console!!) you need to disable socket pooling to stop this behaviour. But as a test, stop IIS
This "feature" gets in the way if you run a second web engine on the same box.
(Ive never tried IIS and SIM together, but Ive seen this in other cases)

Re: HP SIM doesn't start up
I have IIS and SIM running on the same box. I does work, but I would agree to not recommend it. I do it out of necessity, but not the best arrangement.
