I've been tasked with setting up some VMs. I've been given some admin details but no further guidance. The server is a fresh install.
My problem is that I'm on Linux/OSX and don't want to run Windows aside from setting up after which I hope to be able to manage things through the web client.
I think there is an ESXi installation. This would be Version 6. How do I set up the web client?
I've installed vSphere Client on a local Windows VM.. not sure what to do with it though.
The documentation is pretty awful and there hasn't been much useful info on the net. I'm really stuck as I didn't set these up and haven't used servers like this before, so I have no context or understanding of the VMWare ecosystem beyond using a virtual machine locally! (even then I've preferred Virtualbox)
Any advice would be amazing
p.s accessing https://[ipaddress]/vsphere-client does not work. Produces a blank browser page... with no html served as an error
If you have the name of the server on which the VMs are stored, type this into the URL of a web browser then it gives you management options or alternatively use this login screen:

I've been installing our very own ArcGIS Enterprise instance on AWS.
The instance I chose is ArcGIS Enterprise on Ubuntu.
It is important to mention that this installation was conducted without using Cloudbuilder. I know it is a tool that automates the process but I was introduced to it only after I have already started to attack my current instance problems head-on. So, please don't advise me to restart the whole process from scratch using it.
The current status of my instance is that my ArcGIS Server is working. I can access it, upload services and we have already started using it in out Staging environment.
I have authorized all of the software on the server and verified it is licensed. The Portal for ArcGIS is my main problem.
Whenever I try to access it externally(from my office computer) it seems to redirect to the internal IP for some reason, and then times out on that request.
for example typing(from my browser):
https://[dns address]:7443/arcgis/home
redirects to:
https://[internal IP]:7443/arcgis/home
and this times out. (...took too long to respond error)
The funny thing is I can access the portaladmin area.
it's only the portal itself which doesn't work.
Also, another curious thing is that if I type without using the ports, I can access a window but exceptions are thrown in the browser.
For example:
https://[dns address]/arcgis
This will lead to a window where the ArcGIS world icon can be seen but nothing else loads and there are exceptions for "resource not found" 404 on some of the components of this page.
Any ideas? What further information should I include to answer this question?
I've looked everywhere but Esri's documentation is not very forthcoming with examples and information to understand what it is I did wrong.
Also, I don't think this is a ArcGIS software issue. It looks like this might be a proxy issue. Anyone else experienced something like this?
Thanks!
I found the solution.
It was a combination of two problems:
Tomcat that was running the web adaptor service was crashing because of an entirely different and unrelated issue.
The Portal was missing a web adaptor configuration and therefore did not have the WebContext property set with the web adaptor URL.
After fixing both of these problems, I was able to access the portal correctly.
I have bought a VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server) that Windows Server 2008 is installed on it. I needed to use server because I have developed a C# console application that can read data by TCP socket and write them in the MySQL database.
Now I need to start a website on this server. I think WAMP server is so easy for me.
Maybe in future a lot of people visit my website.
Is it a good idea to use WAMP server as a web server?
In principal there is nothing wrong with using WAMPServer as a LIVE webserver.
However, not the out of the box version.
Out of the box WAMPServer and XAMPP for that matter expect to be used as a single seat developer tool and while that is great for a click and go solution to get a developer up and running on Apache/MySQL and PHP in a few minutes it is not secure enough to be considered as a LIVE web facing webserver.
Now if you have the knowledge and experience to create an user account on Windows Server that has access to only what Apache needs to do its work, and can get Apache to run in that account instead of its default account (which has way to many privilages for a live server) and are prepared to explore all the Apache security features/modules that would be required for a web facing server then it is possible. However this is not a trivial task, and any mistakes or ommissions will leave your server open to the simplest of hacks.
In short, unless you really know what you are doing with Windows Server and Apache, you would be far better to pay for a professionally configured and managed web server environment.
Im interested in doing some development from my iPad, and one idea I had would be to code from the safari browser. Does anyone know of a way to set up eclipse on a cloud-based server, so that it can be accessed from a browser?
I believe, you will need the following parts to make it work
The cloud server must be based on one of the supported Eclipse Target Environments.
The cloud server provider must support UI based on some sort of remote desktop - e.g. VNC. Be aware that many cloud providers does not allow UI.
iPad must support the same remote desktop technology. There seem to be many VNC implementations for iPad...
I guess the difficult part is to find a cloud server to use. Though you, as an alternative, could use any PC with an VNC server where you have Internet access...
I've got SQL Server 2008 with SSIS/SSRS installed on my development box. I followed through the installation notes and everything appeared to install just fine - no errors or anything. I've got it configured using all the defaults for now until I figure out what is what. So the server can be accessed via http://localhost:80/ReportServer and the reports via http://locahost:80/Reports.
I've created a dummy report against the AdventureWorks database to test report creation and deployment and after some initial headaches which were resolved by running BIDS as an administrator, I'm having problems accessing the reports via the web interface and indeed, I'm having the same issue accessing the report server via the web interface.
When I open the URLs in any browser - IE/Firefox/Chrome they all prompt me for credentials. My dev box isn't part of a domain and the credentials I use to log into the machine don't appear to be what it is after as they don't connect successfully. I don't really understand why it's asking for credentials at all due to the fact that the address is an intranet address. In either case, IE is configured to pass through my Windows credentials when logging into machines on the intranet.
Did I configure something incorrectly when I set it up? Does anyone have any decent tutorials for not only installing SSRS, but configuration for development machines.
Try opening your browser with elevated (Administrator) privelages. Did that help?

I have a problem where, on some developer machines, everything resolves correctly and the start page is as expected (/Home/Index), but on other developer machines, it will just render a directory listing of the website root. When creating a virtual directory, it works, but we would prefer to use the development server initially if possible.
It's worth mentioning the OS we are working with is XP.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Are you talking about running your website through IIS or through Visual Studio's built in web server (Cassini)?
It sounds like you are using IIS and it is not configured for running MVC properly but without further information it's hard to say.
I would compare the IIS configuration between a working machine and one that doesn't
