Empty host name

Hi
To save money I'm shutting down my virtual machines over night. Now I have two machines without host names that i can't reach. I've seen other threads with the same problem but no good answers. Has anybody been able to fix this?

Hi,
I just a did trial on my azure portal before starting the VM - I could not find the host name of my VM. Later, when I started the VM, I found the host name present by selecting the VM-going to the dashboard pane.
Please check if that is the issue in your case.
Hope it helps you.

Entry for host name is missing or empty (Secure Store key: admin/host/).

Hi All,
I am in the process of installing EP7 on SLES9 and MaxDB 7.6 on a clustered HA environment where the SCS, DB and JC components are installed under and referenced by their virtual hostname (eg. sapinst SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME <virt name>).
The SCS instance is installed, the Database Instance is installed and I'm currently in the process of Installing the JC and Deploying the EP packages.
During the installation, SDM is put into standalone mode and sapinst tries to deploy the package EPBC06_0.SCA where it fails and the sdm_server.err shows :

The same problem occurs if I try to deploy this package or any other package using SDM in standalone or integrated mode.
configtool -> Secure Store -> admin/host/<SID> is the virtual hostname of the JC instance.
I've tried the following to no avail:
- Changed configtool -> Secure Store -> admin/host/<SID> to be the physical hostname of the box.
- Changed configtool -> Server -> Dispatcher -> Service -> P4 -> bindhost (from 0.0.0.0 to JC virt IP).
- Changed the <Host> entry in sdmrepository.sdc from <phys hostname> to <jc virt hostname>.
The SAPLOCALHOST, SAPGLOBALHOST all seem to be set correctly in the SAP profiles.
Has anyone had this issue? If so, what do I need to check/change? Any ideas?
Notice the message does not reference the <SID> in "admin/host", could this be related to the issue? If so, what can cause this?
TIA

Hi All,
Just an update, I was able to get around my problems by patching the 2004s media from sp6 to sp8, uninstalling my scs, and database and re-installing from the patched media.

Fully-Qualified Host Name empty in SMSY

Hello,
I am facing a problem in the SMSY of Solution Manager.
I've got some servers listed in the "servers" tree of the landscape components. Fine. But for all of them, the field Fully-Qualified Host Name is empty.
I need this entry for generating RFC with full host name....
If I put the full host name manually in this field, the RFC are right generated with the full host name in the technical data. But I would like to know how to retrieve it automatically (from SLD I presume...).
Anyone could help me ?
Thanks a lot.
Regards

Hi
Please have a look on the SAP note [Note 1368267 - Transfer fully-qualified host name|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1368267]

out to fix this issue
note : version of ipivr is 4.5 and i am facing this issue when i execute on the client machine and i have attached a screen shot along with this

Thanks for the response.
1 . I am able to ping the crs server from the client machine by host anme as well as it's ip address.
2. yes i am able to ping the client from the server
3. i get the same error message when using IP address to log into the CRS Editor.
note :
1. i face the same issue when i try it out on another client on the same network
2. since i was facing this issue i tried to install the SR2 and check it out but still i am facing the same issue
3. there is no firewall in the CRS server or in the client machine where the CRS editor is installed

Host name not derived as FQDN (TH_GET_PLUGIN_INFO )

Hello,
we've got a problem in the CRM web UI, however, I assume it is more related to general BSP settings.
When testing a CRM component ICCMP_HEADER which is a BSP application in the component workbench
(tcode BSP_WD_CMPWB). The browser tells that an exception
CX_BSP_WD_HTTP_RESPONSE_ERROR is thrown in class
CL_BSP_WD_STREAM_LOADER, method LOAD_FROM_URL.
I did some debugging and found out that in this method in line 20,
function module TH_PLUGINS_ACTIVE is called. It returns that both HTTP
and HTTPS are active. Due to this, in line 31 the system calls method
CL_HTTP_CLIENT=>CREATE_BY_DESTINATION. In this method function module
TH_GET_PLUGIN_INFO is called. It returns the host name (uxsapl07)
without FQDN (.mobilkom.at). I tested the function module on our
development system (MSD) and it returns the full hostname
(vssapk08.mobilkom.at).
I've checked the host name buffer in tcode SMICM and it shows only the
hostname (no FQDN). If refreshing the buffer, it gets filled again with
only the hostname.
I've compared settings on productive system MSP with development system
MSD:
parameter: SAPLOCALHOSTFULL
MSP: uxsapl07.mobilkom.at
MSD: vssapk08.mobilkom.at
parameter: icm/host_name_full
MSP: empty
MSD: empty
However, in tcode SMICM --> paramters, both systems show the FQDN for
parameter icm/host_name_full.
I don't know why it works then on MSD and not on MSP.
Many thanks & regards
Wolfgang

parameter: icm/host_name_full
MSP: empty
MSD: empty
try setting the above parameter with the FQDN (RZ10) and restart the ICM
after restart run program RSPARAM to check whether the changes had taken effect

SSO installation host name problem

Hi all,
I am trying to install OCS single box on my server. I have successfully installed oracle storage and infra. When it came to SSO it asks for valid host name and port number. My system is in workgroup. I am trying to give my server name but it is not accepting. Is it compulsory that my system need to be in a valid domain.
Pls guide me

Create mailsystem
Follow the installation instructions, and run umconfig (located under $ORACLE_HOME/oes/bin on Linux) to configure your mailserver. Make sure you remember the usernames/passords, as you will need them later on. This will start a Java program, and you should make sure you run both menu selections, starting with the MailStore database configuration, and then run the Middle Tier configuration.
Create user login
Now you want to create users in OID (Oracle Internet Directory) by accessing the URL http://<hostname>:<portnumber>/oiddas and log in as orcladmin. Create accounts and make sure you grant rights as Collaboration suite users.
Create mail account
Create an E-mail account for these users from this URL: <midtier hostname>:<port>/um/admin/UMAdminLogin.uix and log in as orcladmin. You will now be presentet with another login, where you should log in as UMADMIN. Create your mail users, and create a mail super-user that may be used to create and administer mail later on.
Create calendar account
To create a calendar account for your users, go to <midtier hostname>:<port>/ocad-bin/ocad.cgi?object=nodeadm
To log in as calendar administrator, leave the username empty, and enter the calendar SYSOP password. Choose Calendar management, push the "Go"button to list all users, and push the "Provision Calendar service to user" button.
Create a Files domain
From <midtier hostname>:<port>/files/app/AdminLogin, create a files domain (you only do this once). Files accounts are automatically provisioned for all users registered in OID. The Files superuser you created during installation, must also have an OID account. Log in to files as this user to restore deleted files from backup, administer users and control quotas.
Enjoy your excellent new mail and files server :-)

PI 7.0 - SMICM - Host Name - Conflict with other places

Hi Friends,
We have host name conflict in SMICM and in other places.
For example, in SMICM it shows the host name 'A' for HTTP protocol and it is green, where as in other places like in RZ10 (Profiles in ABAP), Exchange Profiles (Connection Parameters, Host name), in SLD and in Visual Admin the host name is mentioned as 'B'.
At present, the messages are failing in SXMB_MONI with the error "CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED 402 ICM_HTTP_TIMEOUT ".
When we checked the paramter "icm/host_name_full" in RZ11,it shows the empty value.
This problem comes in our quality PI system, ABAP stack.
Could you kindly clarify in SMICM for the HTTP service from where the host name is taken and displays here?
Kind regards,
Jegathees P.

Connect to the operating system. Check this file (replace xxx with your SID and, if applicable, 00 with the correct instance):
C:\usr\sap\xxx\SYS\profile\xxx_DVEBMGS00_ILBNKxxx
Find this line:
icm/host_name_full = hostname.company.corp
Is this maybe empty / incorrect / incomplete?
After changing this the server needs to be restarted.
Sometimes we had strange behaviors after host name changes, which went away after going to sicf -> execute -> right-click on default host -> deactivate -> right-click again -> activate -> in the pop-up click the second activate button, which is for activating the system and all dependent entries.

Whats wrong with my code?
Please help!!!!

You're using the "imaps" protocol, but you've set properties for the "imap" protocol. Change all the property names from mail.imap.* to mail.imaps.*.
Also, get rid of all the socket factory properties.
If you still can't connect, see these connection debugging tips.
Most likely you're using the wrong host name or port number. In almost all cases, it's better to just let JavaMail choose the correct port number.

Change my Host Name in Solais 10

Please, when I run smc(Solaris Management Console) I can see in System Information, that my Host Name is unknown. How can I change that?

It's strange that you don't have etc/nodename, it must be in etc/. May be you'll try to create it? Besides, I think this article can help you:
Setting Up a Solaris DHCP Client
One of the problems that can arise when trying to use a Solaris box as a DHCP
client is that by default, the server is expected to supply a hostname, in
addition to all the other stuff (like IP address, DNS servers, etc.). Most cable
modems and home routers don't supply a (usable) hostname, so it gets set to "unknown".
This page describes how to get around that. (Where this page says "cable modem",
"DSL modem" can be substituted.)
This page assumes that le0 is the interface you using for your DHCP connection.
Substitute hme0 or whatever interface you're actually using in the examples
below.
Setting up DHCP
There are two ways of using DHCP:
DHCP has limited control
DHCP has full control
The first case may be where you want to use your own /etc/resolv.conf and so on,
with a minimum of hassle.
The second case would be the normal situation, especially if your cable modem
provider has a habit of changing DNS name server IP addresses on you (like mine
does!), so I'll concentrate on that here. I have a script to automate the first
method, should you want to use it. You'll need to change the DEFAULT_ADDR and
INTERFACE variables as required.
The first thing to do is to create an empty /etc/hostname.le0, like this:
/etc/hostname.le0Creating this file ensures that the interface gets plumbed, ready for the DHCP
software to do its stuff.
Next, you create /etc/dhcp.le0. This file can be empty if you want to accept the
defaults, but may also contain one or both of these directives:
wait time, and
primary
By default, ifconfig will wait 30 seconds for the DHCP server to respond (after
which time, the boot will continue, while the interface gets configured in the
background). Specifying the wait directive tells ifconfig not to return until
the DHCP has responded. time can be set to the special value of forever, with
obvious meaning. I use a time value of 300, which seems to be long enough for my
cable provider.
The primary directive indicates to ifconfig that the current interface is the
primary one, if you have more than one interface under DHCP control. If you only
have one interface under DHCP control, then it is automatically the primary one,
so primary is redundant (although it's permissible).
With these files in place, subsequent reboots will place le0 under DHCP control:
you're ready to go!
Unknown hostname
Actually, there's one snag: most (if not all) cable modem DHCP servers don't
provide you with a hostname (even if they did, odds are it won't be one you want
anyway!). This wouldn't be a problem, except that the boot scripts (/etc/init.d/rootusr
in particular) try to be clever, and set your hostname to "unknown" in this case,
which is not at all useful!
The trick is to change your hostname back to the right one, preferably without
changing any of the supplied start-up scripts, which are liable to be being
stomped on when you upgrade or install a patch. You've also got to do it early
enough in the boot process, so that rpcbind, sendmail and friends don't get
confused by using the wrong hostname. To solve this problem, put this little
script in to /etc/init.d/set_hostname, with a symbolic link to it from /etc/rc2.d/S70set_hostname.
Starting with Solaris 10, the preceding paragraph can be ignored. Instead, just
make sure that the hostname you want to use is in /etc/nodename; the contents of
that file will then be used to set the hostname. (Note that it is essential that
the hostname you put into /etc/nodename is terminated with a carriage return.
Breakage will happen if this is not the case.) Also, from Solaris 8 it is
possible to tell the DHCP software not to request a hostname from the DHCP
server. To do this, remove the token 12 from the PARAM_REQUEST_LIST line in /etc/default/dhcpagent.
(/etc/default/dhcpagent describes what the default tokens are; 12 is the
hostname, 3 is the default router, 6 is the DNS server, and so on.)
With these modifications in place, reboot, and you'll be using your cable modem
in no time!
If you've got more than one machine, and you want to access the Internet from
all of them, you might also find my Solaris NAT page useful.
If this page has been useful to you, please consider buying a copy of my book,
Solaris Systems Programming.

DHCP Client does not send host name to DHCP Server

Hello,
I installed Solaris 10 on VirtualBox and I cannot ping/ssh/telnet the virtual machine by its host name (even from the host computer) but only by it's ip.
I tried everything I could find on internet with no success (I don't want to add the hostname in every hosts file on every computer because it's not really professionnal)
I followed what said here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26505_01/html/E27061/eyhuv.html#scrolltoc
Can someone has an idea of what I can do or why this does not work.
I installed a virtual Windows7 and an Ubuntu, and it worked perfectly.
Any help would be grantly appreciated.
Thank you

During the Solaris installation process, you told it what the hostname was going to be and that you wanted that environment to exist with a dynamic IP address instead of a specific address that you desired.
When Solaris boots it broadcasts that hostname and waits for a DHCP server to be quasi-intelligent enough to award an IP address based upon a pre-configured list inside that DHCP server.   Hostname ABC would always get IP address 123 on subnet rst, hostname DEF would always get IP address 456 on subnet xyz, and so on and so on.
That's the fundamental process for proper (and thus secure) DHCP.
All your other environments (Windows, Debian, Ubuntu) are what might be thought of as "hacked for convenience" to get around that sort of network configuration. They take the lazy way to exist. That partial networking setup is good enough for a home network but would be miserably insecure in a corporate environment. Those choices are operating environments that are nice for end-user desktops but aren't Enterprise Class.
My suggestion?
Review the IP address range in your Netgear router's setup.
It is likely something like 192.169.0.1 through 192.168.0.50 and can be customized.
You probably don't have 50 devices on your network and probably will never have 50 simultaneous devices on your network.
... just do a reconfigure reboot and set your Solaris to use a static IP of 192.068.0.45
Then reboot and I predict your issue that prompted this forum thread will be gone.
That's how I've done it at home for many years, even when installing Solaris to bare metal (no virtualization).

How can I get the host name from Email address?

hi
When I using socket to develope an email-sending servlet,I don't know how to get the host name from emial address.can you help me,thanks

Stripping off the user name will give you the domain of from field in the message. This is not the same as the host. Take a look at:
http://www.stopspam.org/email/headers/headers.html
Theres a pretty good discussion about email headers and how to use the information. You probably want to check the information here against the RFC.

Hello All,
we have created shared folder on multiple client machine in domain environment on different 2 OS like-XP,Vista, etc.
from some day's When we facing problem when we are access from host name that shared folder is accessible but same time same computer when we are trying to access the share folder with IP it asking for credentials i have type again and again
correct credential but unable to access that. If i re-share the folder then we are access it but when we are restarted the system then same problem is occurring.
I have checked IP,DNS,Gateway and more each & everything is well.
Pls suggest us.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the same shared folder can be accessed by name, but can’t be accessed be IP address and asks for credentials.
Please try to enable the option below on the device which has shared folder:
Besides, check the Advanced Shring settings of shared folder and confrim that if there is any limitation settings.
Best Regards,
Eve Wang

How can I create a host name site collection when I have a 443 web application already created for App model?

Hi all,
I have a 2013 farm set up with the App model
1 web application for path based site collection using host name
1 web application with SSL (no host name)
1 web application for mysite
My business request is that I need to migrate SSL enabled 2007 content to this farm and use host name site collections. I tried to create one more web application for this without any luck (the 443 IIS folder is already used by another web application).
I thought I bind the previous 443 web application with another IP address should be fine. Seems like the IIS site is taken (https://server name:443) so it will not let me create one more. How can I solve this problem so I can create the web application
to host those host name site collections? Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Sally

Hi Trevor,
Thanks again for your quick reply. I try the option 2 right after your post. I use my front end server name for public URL (https://WFEName:443) and it fails again. The error message is:
The directory C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\443 is already being used by another IIS Web Site. Choose a different root directory for your new Web application.
After reading more, I saw mix Hosted Name Site collection and Path-based site collection aren't recommended. Unfortunately I already have Path-based site collection created with App model web application
(the web application without host name) in my farm. In my Option 2, that web application without host name is used for App routing. This takes the root folder 443 which will not allow any other web application to use the same name again.
Does that mean we can't create Host Named Site collection in the same farm? Is there any configuration I need to check?
Thanks again.

HOW TO DEFINE VIRTUAL HOST NAME IN HPIA64 + SAP R/3 ENTERPRISES 4.7

Hi all,
I am trying to install sap r/3 enterprises 4.7 with OS as HP-UX and Database as Oracle in a cluster environment.
In cluster environment sap installation should be done on virtual hostname ( package id ). I'm using the env variable SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=<VIRTUAL HOSTNAME>.
My cluster is running and I'm able to ping it from network, but at the time of SAP Installation my sapinst starts with the physical host name not with the virtual host name.
What can be the solution ..?
Thanks,
Chandresh Pranami.

Hi Chandresh,
Try executing sapinst with virtual hostname.
eg. ./sapinst SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=<VIRTUAL HOSTNAME>.
This should work.

Domain name/"primary DNS" name/mail host name/mail server name/mx name

Hi,
I have registered my domain name (N.com) with an external dns server and created an MX record (mail.N.com) for it as well. My server sits behind a router and internet traffic is port(80)-forwarded to my server's fixed internal ip address (I can access my webpages from the internet just fine). When I initially setup the server I was asked to give it a "primary DNS name." I naturally assumed that N.com was supposed to be entered here, but that just caused all kinds of problems (though I still do not understand why). So I reinstalled and currently have server.N.com as the primary DNS name of the server (although it shows up in Server Admin and Workgroup Manager as server.local--why is that?)
I have had no luck getting any email from the internet with the default settings in mail services (domain name of N.com and host name of server.N.com). Having no luck with the defaults, I assumed that maybe I needed to change the host name to "mail.N.com" so that it matched the MX record. I also changed the user preferences in Workgroup Manager to receive mail from mail.N.com--but still no luck. Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong and how come none of the Mail Service literature mentions anything about what a mail "host name" is supposed to be? Is it supposed to be the same as the "Mail Server" name that Workgroup Manager asks each user for? and is it the same as the MX record name?
I am just needing some help to connect all these variously named, but undefined, dots.
Also, how come I can access webmail from the internet using www.N.com/webmail but can't do it from any computers within my physical network (I have to use IPaddress/webmail or server.local/webmail)?
Also, should my user email addresses be [email protected] or [email protected] (which is the current default)?
Thanks in advance and good luck!
John

I had been told by a friend that ... regular email coming in from the internet would go through port 80
Unfortunately you were misinformed.
My MX record needs the extra subname (such as "mail") in front of the domain name, right?
Not at all. A MX record for 'N.com' is entirely valid (expected, in fact).
An MX record tells remote mail servers where to send mail for any domain/subdomain. If you think about it, let's say you worked for Apple and you wanted people to be able to send email to [email protected], well then you need an MX record for 'apple.com'.
You can see if you dig MX apple.com that they actually have 9 MX records, but the point still stands.
Now, you might also have MX records for subdomains so that you can have [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], etc. Each of these subdomains would need a separate MX record.
So, in general, for any set of email addresses @[anything.]domain.com you have a MX record telling remote mail servers where to send that mail.
Of course the MX record name is mail.N.com, but I think you are implying that the in the Mail settings of Server Admin where it asks for domain name all I need to put there is the N.com, right?
What I mean is that you need to set the domain name to whatever domain name you expect to receive mail at.
If you want users to have email addresses in the form of [email protected], then you enter 'N.com'.
If you want users to have email addresses in the form of [email protected] then you enter 'mail.N.com'.
If you want both forms, enter one in the main domain and add the other(s) in the Advanced -> Hosting -> Local Host Aliases section.
Is there anything in the Mail settings that needs to have the full MX record name (mail.N.com)?
Yes. Either the 'domain name' or the 'Local Host Aliases' needs to contain the same thing as your MX record. That's because the MX record tells remote servers to send mail to this machine, but the machine won't accept the mail unless it is configured to do so.
What is the "host name" supposed to be?
This should be the name that remote servers see when this machine tries to send outgoing mail.
Ideally this should match the reverse DNS of your IP address, that way when it connects to a remote server it says "Hi, I'm $hostname" and the remote server can lookup the machine's IP address and see the same result. This will reduce the problem of remote servers thinking you're sending them spam.
If you only have a single IP address then this probably needs to be something like 'N.com'. If you don't have control over your reverse DNS then you're going to run into a problem.
Also in the user accounts (in Workgroup Manager) what should the "mail server name" be? Is it the host name or the domain name?
Off hand, I don't know.
Also, why are all the default user email addresses [email protected] (the name I gave the server at setup)? Why doesn't the user accounts create [email protected] as the default address?
Presumably because the mail server says it is 'server.N.com' and therefore any accounts on that machine would be [email protected]. Changing the domain name (as above) should fix that.
