remove localhost from the line starting with your machines ip address in /etc/hosts and add a new line

127.0.0.1       localhost

to /etc/hosts

server could not be registered:
Error: Connection refused to host: localhost; nested exception is:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused

I allso got alot of these messages, on my CentOS52 system it looks like not all the open-xchange processes are not terminated if I execute the init.d scripts or I just takes time to terminate. then a kill -9 comes handy

RMI authentication is enabled

Hi friends, i dont speak deutsch,neither english, but this seems quite similar to my case,because i can not register the server, could it be rmi related?

This is the message:

com.openexchange.admin.rmi.exceptions.PoolExceptio n: DBP-0001 Category=5 Message=Cannot get connection to config DB. exceptionID=383039001-1

i'm using spanish translation of debian etchand the sun java sdk, becuse i use my pc to make sales presentations of the open source advantage and so on

this is the history:

my apologies in advance if this is not the correct thread

The answer is most likely in the logs (/var/opt/open-xchange/open-xchange-admin.log.0)
