Cannot start a server with start/stop (WLS 7.0 Linux)

Question

Hi:
I have node manager running in a machine with RedHat Linux and WLS
7.0.1. In the Start/Stop tab of the Control tab of any server it
doesn't appear the Start Server option. Of course, administrator
server and node manager are running and I can obtain the node manager
status from the console.
Any ideas?
Cheers, Miguel

I found the solution.  Here it is:
Take backup of below registry key.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\MachineGuid This key should ideally have the GUID of the machine without curly braces, so {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx} becomes xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
Then delete the braces.
Try to reboot and start the SQL service . If service don’t start then Uninstall and reinstall SQL.
The MachineGuid had curly braces so I removed them and rebooted my laptop.  Now both instances of SQL Server start.  It is the last post of this thread:

He states that he got it from Microsoft but did not give the url.
Thanks for all your help.
