Scalix Forums

Scalix installation is getter tougher
I have successfully installed 11.3, but not 11.4. I checked with nslookup and all network settings already.

Here is the installation log:

Network check failed -- Hosts file is not configured with fully qualified domain name (FQDN)
Network check failed -- Could not find a host name in DNS that matches an IP address
Network check failed -- IP address '220.232.214.X' associated with host name 'myhost.mydomain.com' in DNS cannot be confirmed as this host's IP address


Here is the /etc/hosts/

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
220.232.214.X myhost.mydomain.com
#::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6


What's wrong???

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

Shouldn't that be:


also, check in DNS that myhost.mydomain.com is 220.232.214.X... if it's conflicting with another IP, that could cause interesting behaviour.

Ya, that's working! Thanks!

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
192.168.10.104 myhost.mydomain.com myhost

It seems that it must be in the same order

How can i have sure the dns service is working in my computer? In the Administrative Tools - Services is up and running but how can i see if my computer is responding? i don't find any command to see if is actually running, because i think Kaspersky anti-virus disable the service....

Run nslookup, forcing it to use your computer as the DNS server.
For the sake of example, your computer is dns.belainex.com

nslookup ftp.x.org dns.belainex.com

See if your server resolves the name "ftp.x.org".
