Good day, 

 

I am having a problem with Validating some servers after the config. We deployed Lev1 on our server and I'm following the instruction.html for the post config. It tells me that i need to validate the Logical Pooled Workspace Server but when I do it I get this error.

[8/30/18 1:25 PM] INFO: Starting extended validation for Pooled Workspace server (level 1) - Making a connection
[8/30/18 1:25 PM] SEVERE: Connection refused
[8/30/18 1:25 PM] SEVERE: The application could not log on to the server "Server:8701". No server is available at that port on that machine.

 

I did a grep command and I cant even find that port. We do have a few older deployments of this server though all the services are stopped, but once I go on the new deployment and do a server status check on the Pooled Workspace Server it just come back blank and cant start or stop it. How can I check what is using this port to I can stop those servers or what? 

 

I'm also trying to use the Schedule Manager but is it saying the "Unable to connect to the scheduling server 'SAS Distributed In-Process Services Scheduling Server'."

 

I don't know if this has something to do will the Validation as well i'm just asking 

 

We are running version 9.4M5. 

Thank you very much.

Pooled and non-pooled workspace servers, as well as stored process servers are started by the object spawner. The object spawner is the process that needs to listen on the relevant ports, and it reads the ports from metadata; that's why you won't find them in any configuration file.

So you need to check if the object spawner is up and running, if the servers have been configured into the object spawner, and the object spawner log to see if it experienced a problem when setting up a specific server. If you have more pooled servers (pooled WS and stored process) defined than default, you may have to increase the available PortBank connections for the workspace server.

The Object Spawner is started, I took a look at the logs and this is what I am receiving.
