Problems with MXE

[CTSSMERCAV]

Yesterday I logged into one of our MXE 3500 and was greated with the following error.Unable to communicate with the ECS on [localhost:3501] To my knowledge nothing has been done to the server as I was the last person that it shows logged in and I did not make any changes.  Does anyone have any suggestions or should I escalate this to the TAC?Thanks,David

David,

This system is typically related to either

two things:

* License expiration

  Check the license file via Notepad to see if there is an expiration date and

   if the license has expired.

* Misconfiguration of the HOST settings in the MXE Web UI Administration section.

  Verify that the configuration for the defined HOST is correct.

If it is a license issue, you may need to open a case with the TAC to get a new

license file.

I hope this helps!

Hi,

had also a problem with host-Settings!!

Look at

CSCtn03766            Bug Details

"ecs.host" setting in web.config is mis-configured.

Symptom: In SnS / MXE integration scenario, SnS can't submit job to MXE with the following error messages: Unable to communicate with the ECS on  [localhost5:3501] Location: Anystream.AgilityAPI.ECS.Submit(:0) Exception: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException:  No such host is known at  System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient..ctor(String hostname, Int32  port) at Anystream.AgilityAPI.ECS.Submit(String command,  Boolean hasResponse) REST API  Exception Location: Anystream.RestAPI.RestPage.WriteExceptionResponse(:0) Exception: System.Exception:   Unable to communicate with the ECS on [localhost5:3501] --->   System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No such host is known at  System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient..ctor(String hostname, Int32  port) at Anystream.AgilityAPI.ECS.Submit(String command,  Boolean hasResponse) --- End of inner exception stack trace  --- at Anystream.AgilityAPI.ECS.Submit(String command, Boolean  hasResponse) at  Anystream.AgilityAPI.ECS.GetLicenseList() at  Anystream.RestAPI.Licenses.OnPageLoad() at  Anystream.RestAPI.RestPage.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs  e) Conditions: the "ecs.host" setting in web.config file is set to "localhost5", the proper setting should be "localhost". maybe this will help!
