Failing to Delete a Package During Uninstallation
If you try to remove Campus Manager 4.0.6 but the uninstallation program fails to delete a package, try running the uninstallation program again. There may be several reasons why a package could not uninstall successfully. Running the uninstallation program again will usually remove it.
Accessing the CiscoWorks Server
The CiscoWorks server uses port 1741 by default (443 if SSL is enabled). This port is normally used by web servers. If you see an error message that an existing web server is already configured to run on port 1741, and the alternative port 1744 is used instead, verify that you entered the correct URL for the server:
where server_name is the name of the machine on which CiscoWorks was installed and 1744 is the alternative port on which CiscoWorks is installed if port 1741 is in use.
If you still cannot access the server, enter the following command to make sure your server is running:
If you get a message that the server is alive, and get a proxy error when you try to connect to the server, make sure the proxy is set up correctly. If your server is configured to use a proxy server outside the firewall, you will get proxy errors if you have configured the proxy to ignore requests to a certain machine, set of machines, or domain.
You can specify a proxy server in Netscape Navigator under Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Proxies and in Internet Explorer under Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings.
Your proxy is set up incorrectly if:
•You receive an error message informing you that you are using a proxy outside the firewall.
•The proxy server recognizes www-int as an internal server, so it does not send proxy requests to that server.
•You set up a new internal server, www-nms, but when you make a request to the proxy server, it does not recognize www-nms as an internal server and proxies the request.
•The proxy server outside the firewall tries to request data from a server inside the firewall, and the request is blocked.
•You get a Connection Refused error from the proxy server.
