VMWare Server Wont Start
Jun 2, 2008
I'm having issues after changing my system time and rebooting for whatever reason it didn't take effect but now my VMWare servers wont boot. I get this error when trying to run a vmware-cmd
[root@plexus ~]# /usr/bin/vmware-cmd -l
/usr/bin/vmware-cmd: Could not connect to vmware-authd
(VMControl error -14: Unexpected response from vmware-authd: 511 Error connecting to /usr/sbin/vmware-serverd process.)
[root@plexus ~]#
also when i try logging into the web interface same error.

Does anyone here use VMware server on a dedicated server to run Windows or other OS? And in terms of IP address how would this work? Do you need to set the VM as being NATed, or does it have it's own external IP? In terms of performance on a typical 100$-200$/mo dedicated server, how good is it? All these factors depend on a lot of things and I realize that, though. (what apps run, etc)
And do server providers even allow to install something like this? I've never leased a dedicated server before but I'm thinking of getting a linux one, but also running a windows VM for a RunUO server, and unfortunately that only runs in windows. I want a linux server as I prefer LAMP for hosting, and I'd try to get a few clients on the server just so I can pay it off monthly. Also Linux servers are generally cheaper monthly and I like the idea of using SSH tunnels rather then straight RDP, which gives me chills just thinking of, from a security perspective.

Recently, I installed VMWare Server 1.0.4 on my dedicated server.
When I tried to install my private IP on my VMWare, I had no clue how to do that. I used NAT networking to share my main OS with my private VPS, but when I try to run a service that needs the port XXXX to be open, it wouldent let me use it.
For an example, my main OS IP is 82.00.000.000. My VPS is sharing the same IP address with the main OS. I tried to run an Apache service on my VPS, but when I try to access it by the IP 82.00.000.000 it gives me a connection reset page.
This also happens on other services like FTP and stuff.
My VPS is running Windows XP Professional SP2 with a legal retail license and my main OS on the server is CentOS 4.5

I am just trying the water with VMware as a virtual platform to give some friends some freedom in hosting and cut down on the cpanel cost with vps
I installed vmware on my centos5 distribution, and used the default values vmnet0 is bridged to eth0.
I have multiple ips to the host server eth0 to eth0:7 i think, how do i create a bridge or assign an ip only for that one vps to use.
create another bridge for eth0:7? then manually enter the ip info in the guest and bam?

Has anyone every done this before? There are so many better bargains out there for *nix based machines. We'd like to use some of these to host VMWare Server and then run one of our windows images on it.

Anybody are using VMware server (free product) for hosting in production environment?
I would like to use it for virtualize a medium web/email/dns hosting.
Is vmware server suitable for medium production environment?
Someone can tell us some successful history with vmware server?
Is more stable than Xen/OpenVPS ? I know than is not faster but is more stable?

I have configured and install VMWare Server on my server and currently trying to install Plesk. I have gotten the network working so I can download.
I want to give the VMWare Virtual Machine it's own IP so I can connect via PuTTY instead of the console, which e.g. does not let me paste url's (plesk download url is long).
I am planning to host a few websites on the Plesk Virtual Machine. I have added the IP my network provider given me using 'setup' in CentOS and it's listed in /sbin/ifconfig, but does not work yet.
Do I first need to add the ip to the host server self? Or can a VPS directly use an ip?
(PS: Do I use too many hard breaks in my texts?)

The newer Pentium 4 3.0 GHz processors had so called 'VT'-support. That's something every regular processor has nowadays.
I currently run a Pentium 4 3.0 GHz server without VT. Will there be a drastic performance boost if I use a Pentium 4 3.0 GHz with VT?
What is VT anyways? I only know that Xen requires it if you wish to host a Windows Virtual Machine on a Xen Linux Server.

I have Windows Server storage server. However I need to run some Linux scripts. Is it possible to run possibly VMWARE to have Linux so I can install the scripts use the Windows which has content to be used.
Kinda tricky I know but worth a shot.
Windows - Has all the content , but can't run scripts such as file hosting , streaming server (WMV wont do) , HTML/PHP server scripts.

I installed VMWare Server 1.0.4 on my dedicated server, and set-up a new Windows XP Professional VM.
I have 3 more IP's that are not used.
When installing the VM, I used NAT networking to share my main OS network with my private VPS, but basically no one can access the VM from the outside world. I can surf the net while being on NAT status in the VM, but if I try to run any service like Apache, no one can enter to the service besides the localhost.
My VPS is running Windows XP Professional SP2 with a legal retail license and my main OS on the server is CentOS 4.5 (detailed hardware is mentioned below)
Do you have any idea how can I configure my network so anyone can enter the VPS?
And please, if you can explain me step by step because I'm a real newbie hehe

I yesterday installed VMware Server under Windows Server 2003 x64, Enterprise Edition, and have this morning noticed the message 'Service unavailable' when browsing to a website hosted on the server under IIS. I have briefly looked into the problem and found the DefaultAppPool stopped, but after restarting it, it resets back to the stopped state when I once again browse to a hosted website.
Does anyone have any experience of this problem and a workaround?

Many people have some problems with vmware server on some 64bit operation systems.
If your server's ram is more than 6GB, you have to have a 64bit OS but I have tried to install vmware server on a 64bit server, it seems to be crashing my vmware server every 5 min and I cant use it more until I reset this service.
CPU : Intel Xeon Nehalem 3440 2.53Ghz Quad Core w/ HyperThreading (8 virtual cores)
Ram : 4 GB DDR2
Os : CentOS 64bit
I have had an another server and i have solved this problem whit Debian. but on CentOS I usually have problem, and I cant use vmware server.
Have you any idea how i solve this problem on CentOS 64bit?

Our company website runs on a Win 2003 server with ASP.
Now we also want to run some new PHP applications (e.g. MediaWiki). I think of running them in a (Linux) virtual machine on the Win 2003 server, to keep everything separated.
Does anybody else use VMware to split his dedicated server in several parts? It sounds like a good idea to me, but can not find much information about it. Or are there better alternatives?

I just ordered a server from VD. I got an email said that my server was online from 5 hours ago. However, I do not know how to connect my server. They gave me 2 IPs but when I clicked those, I got an error like this:
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at *.*.*.*.
and they said that my Directadmin control panel will be installed shortly, but after 5 hours, I did not get any more information update from them.
Can the guys tell me what should I do? Those information is enough for me to run a server?
This is the first time I run dedicate server, so it made me a little bit confused.

I am using Wamp server 2.2.
I recently made some changes to the Apache configuration to allow me to make a virtual host for the Zendframework. the change i made were as follows:
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
ServerName zendy
DocumentRoot "C:workspacezendypublic"
SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV "development"
<Directory "C:workspacezendypublic">
DirectoryIndex index.php
AllowOverride All
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Since these changes were made, my wamp server will not start up. the wamp bar remain red.

I am having some server issues.
A part of my sshd_config:
Port 2255
Protocol 2
ListenAddress 8x.xx.xx.46
PermitRootLogin no
Recently, when I want to connect to my server using putty, I get "Connection Refused" using the above IP address and port.
When I enter the above IP address (or any other IP address that is stored/set on the server) and port 22, I get "Server refused to start shell/command".
It did work before, using 8x.xx.xx.46:2255 and when I enter 8x.xx.xx.46:22 it will block. But now... not anymore.
I am using "Direct Admin" to do a "System Backup". I do see the right port and IP address in the sshd_config file.
How can I fix this? I can not login the server anymore, however I am going to the datacenter tomorrow.
OS: CentOS
Installed firewall / protection: APF + BFD

A lot of people start off with a dedicated server when they first start their website because they feel they will eventually need it anyway. They also don't want to go through the trouble of transferring their website in the future. Do you think it's wise for a new website to do this or do you feel they should start off with shared hosting and then transfer their website after it already has a lot of traffic?

I'm running Apache 2.2 on Windows 7. I'm a casual user of the Apache server, and the server I'm running is only used to develop a Silverlight application on the local machine, nothing more. The following problem is apparently a non-systematic error (sometimes the server can startup, sometimes it cannot. If it cannot, it sometimes can after a reboot (a service startup race condition?))
I get error when starting the server: "The requested operation has failed!"
When I run "http.exe" from a command prompt I get:
Quote:
httpd.exe: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 10.0.0.100 for ServerName
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted. :
make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
No listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
It does not write anything in the "error.log". It cannot? why? rights? but it could yesterday! anything changed from yesterday, no nothing!
I have tried to start the server many times today, and it has not written anything in error.log. Looking in the log there are many entries from yesterday, when the server probably worked!?
Okay there most be something using port 80 then!
Output from "netstat -o -n -a | findstr :80" is nothing! netstat says there is nothing listening on port 80.
I'm running SQL Server 2008 Express, and "Reporting Service" would be a prime candidate for listening on port 80, but netstat says it is not!
I'm using the ZoneAlarm firewall (the Apache server has been given full trust and permissions), and it has worked previously, I belive it cannot be the problem.
I'm using Avast anti-virus, but everything is disabled in it, and I'm only using it to run a virus check from time to time.
(I don't think it has anything to do with the "fully qualified domain name", because the setting it is complaining about has always been the same, also when the server is actually working, from time to time)
