Problem with syslog configuration

I have two servers ESXi 4, and both are configured for syslog in the same way under Configuration/advanced/Syslog.  A single server works well, however, the other is not.  They are both reporting to my server syslog on port 514, but on a single server, I see the OLD log files (back when I put in place I think) at the Syslog.Local.Datastorepath location of:

[] / vmfs/volumes/4c12e308-3647efed-7e2c-78e7d193adfa/log/messages

When I get a command line and look at these files, I see that they are not current:

~ # cd/vmfs/volumes/4c12e308-3647efed-7e2c-78e7d193adfa/log
/ vmfs/volumes/4c12e308-3647efed-7e2c-78e7d193adfa/log # ls - la

/ vmfs/volumes/4c12e308-3647efed-7e2c-78e7d193adfa/log #.
Where should I start troubleshooting?  My server itself today cut without reason and I need determine why.  Of course, it is too late for now, but if/when it happens again, I want it on my syslog server.

syslogd could have stopped on this host. Check syslogd and start if its stopped.

  • There might be a problem with the configuration of your DOMAIN NAME SERVER

    Last week one, I noticed some problems with my internet connection. I have a BSNL broadband connection. I am connected to the internet, and after some time all of a sudden, I'm not able to connect. My modem lights are all on and on my laptop, I see the symbol of 2 computers with a note on it, which means that I'm connected. But still the pages not displayed. When I run Network Diagnostics (I Windown Vista) I get the error message saying: "there could be a problem with the configuration of your DOMAIN NAME server. I turned off the computer and the modem and switch it on after a long time... He would return but loses the connection with the same error message again. What can I do? I tried to reset the modem, also tried the system restore. What can I do? Please help me. I have laptop Dell Insipiron with Windows Vista and I connect wireless.

    We do not know how your system should be set up - including the DNS configuration and settings.  I recommend you contact your ISP's technical support group and get help from them in the configuration of your computer (and test lines and modem - the problem could be the modem and not on the computer or it could even be the service provider itself).  It can be something as simple as a typo or a box checked or not checked - I do not know because I do not know their settings (different for each access provider).  Give them a call.  I do so often when I have connection problems, and they are almost always useful, or schedule a service call if they cannot help.  I think it's your best chance to solve this problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • SE "There are problems with the configuration of static files in your environment" after the APEX 5 install using Oracle HTTP Server

    There is not much information in the doc around the new configuration of static file.  Someone at - it an example of this dads.conf he file should look similar to static files?  Everything else seems to work fine - it's my only hang up now.

    Thank you!

    Exact pop-up message:

    There are problems with the configuration of static files in your environment.  Please see the section "Configuration static file Support" in the Guide of the Installation Application Express

    I figured it out on my own - the doc has a section "6.5.4 configuration Support for static file" which basically said yes, it is now supported for static files, then a "see also:" link to the dads.conf section, that I'm not good enough to see there are now 2 new parameters in your dads config file...  All is ready!  It works!  YAY!

  • Problems with the configuration of the Essbase Server

    Hi all

    -J' have a simple environment with a single Foundation Server with only the Foundation services running on it (only the basic components installed). On the same Essbase server, I installed (by default) foundation and Essbase components.
    -I am facing a problem with the configuration of the Essbase server. All steps complete with the exception of the last step: deploying web applications (APS and EAS) to the WebLogic Server.
    -FYI, I am deploying the web application to the existing domain created on the server of the Foundation. As all products must be on the same domain.


    During deployment, the WebLogic administration server reports the following error:

    BEA-149003
    Cannot access source application information in /opt/shared/apps/hyperion/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/products/Essbase/eas/server/AppServer/InstallableApps/Common/aps.ear for application "APS".
    The specified error is: there is no file of the application.


    Now the path and the above files exist on the Essbase server, but not on the server of the Foundation. So after playing with the WL administration console and reading of Sandeep post [1], I came to the conclusion that:
    1. the Essabase components must be installed on the Essbase server, but not configured.
    Now, this means that I need to install all the components on the server of the Foundation, even though I only will use to deploy the services of the Foundation which seems a little ridiculous?
    2. create a new domain on the Essbase server, so the EAS/APS will be deployed on the Essbase server - but will not be on the same domain as the other products.

    Well, I am a newbie with WebLogic and so would welcome your valuable contributions!


    Thanks in advance...


    References:
    [1]. http://sandeepseshan.blogspot.in/2009/02/weblogic-server-10-deployment-error.html

    The configuration documentation.
    "On the computer on which you will administer the WebLogic Server, you must install all of the Web applications for all applications that you plan to deploy on any machine in the environment. (The Administration WebLogic Server is installed and deployed on computer Services Foundation) »

    You should should not create a new domain for deployment on other servers and can use the existing and only to deploy web applications on the servers that you want running on.

    I don't know what version you install, but if it's 11.1.2.1 then consider the OS is similar on both machines
    "All Web applications in a deployment of EPM system must be deployed on windows computers or on all UNIX machines."

    There do not appear to be there in 11.1.2.2 so I guess it isn't the rule more.

    See you soon
