At the end of the installation, the Manager service may not start. During the OnStart phase, the service attempts to bind a socket listener to the defined Manager host:port. If this fails the server immediately stops.
The configuration file includes this node for the Manager:
<MANAGER USE_HTTPS="False"
SSL_CERTIFICATE_FILE="cert.linkarsuite.com.pfx" SSL_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD=""
STATISTICS_ENABLED="True"
CHECK_UPDATES="True"
LISTENER_IP="localhost"
LISTENER_PORT="11200"
LISTENER_HTTP_PORT="11201"/>
We strongly discourage the use of "localhost" and "127.0.0.1". This can lead to a condition noted in Network Issues.
We do recommend using the system's hostname. The URL used by the MANAGER will be http://thishostname:11201.
The hostname must resolve to localhost for the server being installed. A service cannot be started in another system.
The hostname must also resolve through DNS if using the Manager from another workstation.
Edit the configuration file and change the LISTENER_IP value to the local host name.
Save the file, then click the Linkar MANAGER icon on the desktop to attempt a restart of the service.
If that does not work, re-edit the file and change the value to "127.0.0.1", save, and retry.
