[SOLVED] Screenconnect - Stopped Working

JaredBusch

Keep in mind he's a full time Windows engineer that doesn't use Linux.

irrelevant though to reporting back the definition of "on occasion" as it pertains to the controller in question.

[root@screenconnect ~]# cd /var/logs/messages
-bash: cd: /var/logs/messages: No such file or directory
[root@screenconnect ~]# cd /var/logs
-bash: cd: /var/logs: No such file or directory

CentOS logs are in /var/logs/messages

At least most logs are. /var/logs is the logging directory. Nearly everything goes into the "messages" catch all. But there are specific logs too for NginX, Apache (HTTPD), ScreenConnect, etc.

Both Directorys are missing? WTF?

That's EXTREMELY odd. There is no /var/log at all?

Sorry, I typod. /var/log not logs

Output:

Alex Sage

This maybe?
/etc/rc.d/init.d/screenconnect-1227cf7eaca84600: line 109: java: command not found

scottalanmiller

So you have messages for most things and screenconnect for specific stuff. I'd start with those two.

That could do it. Do this...

find / -name java

Alex Sage

[root@screenconnect log]# find / -name java
/etc/pki/java
/etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/java
[root@screenconnect log]#

scottalanmiller

Looks like Java is missing. No idea how that happened.

dafyre

@scottalanmiller Security update? lol.

scottalanmiller

Well you can't argue that Java isn't a lot more secure now!

scottalanmiller

I would start here and see if this works...

yum -y install java

Let's experiment. This will install the open source Java replacement that Red Hat ships natively.

Alex Sage

WTF. The server was working fine the whole time!

DNS was updated by mistake.....

Boy do I feel silly.

scottalanmiller

LOL. It's generally the simplest things that get us

Alex Sage

I went to the IP, and working fine.... So I was like hmmmmmmmmm.

Alex Sage

So should I remove Java now?

scottalanmiller

Yes, you should remove it.

Sadly, renaming the thread after the title has been posted breaks links to the threads. That is something that we wish NodeBB would address.

Alex Sage

@scottalanmiller And reboot? or is that the windows admin in me? =P

There is a new Q&A module that we are considering to allow the site to designated questions versus discussions and a way to mark them as answered.
