Agent does not report to the server computers.

Question

I have the server installed on a CentOS IP 192.168.2.19, I access it by http://192.168.2.19:81/ocsreports

I use port 81 because I have external NAT and another application on port 80

I installed the agent on Windows computers but when running the computer is not added on the server.

Could you help me? I may have missed some configuration on the server...I do no..

Below .ini and .log

Answer 1

You are not sending the inventory to the server.

The URL for the server will be Server=http://192.168.2.19:81/ocsinventory

In the browser this URL does not access, it should access? May I have missed something in my setup 

Answer 3

Hi,

Your OCS server is installed on which OS? linux, windows?

Error 404 means: 

1. url ocsinventory not available => module mod_perl not installed and not activated on apache 
2. a firewall is started on the server or on the client and port 81 is not open

Regards

Frank
