Connection to Licence Server Failed

[Former Member]

Hi There,

I installed SAP B1 2005A SP01 PL22 on a vista machine succesfully but I am now unable to connect to the License Server. When I switch off the Firewall on the License Server I can connect succesfully, but unfortunately I am not allowed to switch off the firewall for other security reasons. My question now is; What do I need to add to the exeptions in Firewall settings to allow the connection to the License server? I have added the port 300000 but that doesnt do the trick. SAP B1 is in the exeptions and so is Server Manager. Does anyone know if there is a specific exeption I need to add for this? Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Wynand Cilliers.

Hi,

As far as I know, there is actually no influence of firewall settings.

I suggest you to try to run SQL server browser that can be started from SQL server configuration manager.

Actually the port is 30000. you typed 300000.

Anyway, I've heard that SAP B1 is not suitable in the windows vista.

Hi There,

The Firewall definately has an effect with this issue, because when I switch it off it works but when its on it doesnt. The port I added is in fact 30000. But doesnt work. Also, it doesnt have anything to do with Vista, because when I connect my XP machine I have exactly the same problem when connecting. What does SQL Browser have to do with this issue? It is started though, but doesnt have any affect.

Hi Wynand,

licence server also needs port 30001 open.

Hi Sandra,

My appologies for the delay in respone.

I have to thank you though, adding port 30001 works, I can now succesfully access the B1 server from my Vista Machine.

Wynand.
