OCS on Windows server 2012 and Windows 8.1

Question

I have try this on hyper-v guest os use the windows server 2012 as DC and Windows 8.1 join it domain.

I name a hostname of server as lab-dc01

I have install OCS Server on Windows server 2012 succesfully and apache service run successfully as well as mysql service.

During installation page of Windows agent on Windows 8.1. It ask for the name of server so I put lab-dc01\ocsinventory

for credential I put mydomainname\administrator and it password.

I have turn off the firewall also.

I go to administer setup on ocs management page and add new subnet already

However the agent don't send it inventory to server.

 

How to solve this ?

Answer 1

can you give us the log of your agent ?

Comments

Finally after have a look on a log I found it show as

 

"Service encounter error <OCS Inventory NG Agent encounter an error (exit code is 4 => Failed to talk with Communication Server)>."

 

I try to look for the solution by myself and fix this issues already.

 

For my issues it is the credential for root account of mysql is not match in dbconfig.inc so I update it and restart apache, agent so it's working.
