Scalix Forums

I've just installed a new server with 11.0.3 on RHEL3 (I know it's old Hat but that's what we have at present). I could not connect to the mobile client so started looking around. There was nothing in the scalix-mobile.log in /var/opt/scalix/??/tomcat/logs directory. There was something in the scalix-api.log

and I did an omstat -a only to see the event server was aborted

So what is this "event server" and how do I fix it... omsolve was less than helpful as usual :-(.

What address should I be looking at?

Getting these errors when trying to connect.

Have checked the httpd access_log and error_log but nothing much in there, although error was reporting the favicon.ico file missing in /var/www/httpd so I copied the file from under ~/??/tomcat/webapps/ROOT in the other directory and that error went away.

There was a bug raised for the Event SErver abort and a consequence of that was the mobile client wouldn't work.

The resolution was to stop xinetd "killall -HUP xinetd" and stop restart scalix.

Although my problem presented itself different the resolution is the same WAHOO... thank you Stefan.
