FMS 3.5 - Can't start admin server

Hi,

I am using remote Win Server 2003 R2 via rdesktop.  As an "administrator", I installed FMS 3.5 - Developer version using default options.  Media Server starts, runs, and appears to work.  Admin Server is not running.  When I attempt to start it (from Win admin services tools),  I get error 1067 (Error registering class: name mismatch (%1$S, %2$S)).  Everything done remotely as an administrator.  Any ideas what is causing this problem?

Thanks,

Petr

    Hi,

    If you have installed FMS with default installation options the FMSAdmin service will bind to port 1111. In your case you need to check if that port is blocked by any other service or is somehow blocked. Also check the master.00.log or admin.00.log to see if it has some message that helps you.

    Thanks,

    Abhishek

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply.  I found out there is another server listening on port 1111.

    Is there a _prefered_ alternative port number for the admin server?

    Hi,

    You can choose another port and specify the same in SERVER.ADMINSERVER_HOSTPORT = :<port number> in fms.ini and restarting the server. There is no preferred port as such, however for security purposes, it is advisable that the port on which FMSAdmin is listening it behind a firewall so that it can be accessed from limited domains.

    Thanks,

    Abhishek
