Recently the activation prompt diplayed when i started Microstation, which typically indicates I hadn't transmitted logs in the last 30 days. Typically, I can just access the admin site page and take care if this slight issue with little effort. However, this time i receive the error message "an error has occurred while attempting to verify the server and activation key" when I attempted to activate and when I couldn't access the admin site page either.
Nothing has changed lately, so this was surprising.
We have a Deployed (local) selectserver Version 08.11.08.25 and i can't acces the admin site page.
Please help, thanks.
The error indicates that your deployed SELECTserver cannot be reached. This can happen if a network error is preventing the server name from resolving or if SELECTserver is not responding to requests. What happens when you attempt to open the SELECTserver administration site?
When i try to access the administration site I receive an error that it's doesn't exist. i have a connection to the server though, because I can ping it.
The exact message I get when I try to access the admin site is as follows:
"HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly"
Sounds like an IIS problem. Check that the SELECTserver App pool and web site that you have SELECTserver in is running. You can see this in the IIS Manager. Also check the permissions on the SS directory, make sure it is open so that the system account and read it or whatever account is running the app pool. Maybe it locked down.
Also ensure that Internet Information Services (IIS) is functioning properly by navigating to http://YourServerName/, replacing YourServerName with the name of the machine running SELECTserver. If IIS is functioning, a web page with an IIS logo should display.
Nope, it's not functioning properly...I get the "error 404.0-not found" This seems to be the key, just need to fix it somehow.
