Weblogic 6.1 trial not running on win2k

Question

I installed WL 6.1 trial on my windows 2000 machine. When I run the default server it starts up but I cannot successfully access the "localhost:7001".
The server is running but it doesn't seem to be listening for any requests.
I've verified the port number. On netscape I get "connection reset by peer".
Any ideas? Others on my team have installed the same version on the same OS without any problems.

Answer 1

I have resolved the problem. It turns out that I have VPN (virtual private network) software on my machine that
was causing the conflict. I have Aventail Connect 3.23 installed on my machine.
I was experiencing the problem with Weblogic even when I did not have the software running.
A colleague of mine mentioned that this software modifies the tcpip stack so it could have an effect
even if its not running. I don't understand all the details but the important thing is that the server is now
serving my requests.
What I did to get it working was to go into the configuration for the software and java.exe and javaw.exe to the list of
programs that should be not be "secured" by this software.
The strange thing is that another person on my team does not experience the problem althoug he has the same software (same version) as I do. He did not need to
make the change which I made.

Hi.
Strange.
Ok, one last thing to try. Try using the IP address of your win2k machine instead of localhost. If you don't know what that is you can run 'java utils.myip'
after running setEnv.cmd to get it.
If that works then there is some sort of network setup problem on your win2k box. If that doesn't work then please open a case with support.
Thanks,
Michael

Michael,
thanks for your interest. I don't see any exceptions in the log files. The server is listening on port 7001 and port 7002 (secure). I have tried both
netscape and
internet explorer.
Another test I tried resulted in the following:
After starting the default server, I started the managed server (startManagedWebLogic.cmd). I entered the following command
"startManagedWebLogic ms http://localhost:7001" at the command prompt.
This is the exception that was thrown:
Exception raised: weblogic.management.configuration.ConfigurationException:

Hi.
Are there any exceptions or errors in your log file? Does the log file show the server listening on port 7001 with a message something like:
####<Jan 25, 2002 1:49:14 PM CST> <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <jefferson> <myserver> <ListenThread> <system> <> <000202> <ListenThread listening on port
7001>
If your browser is set to go through a proxy try setting it to connect directly.
Try another browser (ie) - do you get the same behavior?
