Have you ever replaced any h/w on this sensor? Have you looked for any related errors in the /usr/cids/idsRoot/log/main.log (from service account)?

Hi,

Logon to your sensor to CLI. Run show users all to see your users. If there is one with a Privilege of Service, logoff and login again with that user account. If a service account does not exist (only one allowed), create one with the following:

configure terminal

username service privilege service

Best of Luck.

You may also want to run "show version" from the cisco account, and verify that it showing the sensor as an IDS-4235 sensor.

There are also older IDS-4230 sensors that are Not supported by version 5.0.

If your sensor is an IDS-4230 and not an IDS-4235 then you will not be able to upgrade to 5.0.
