17.2.11 Troubleshooting problems related to linking with other programs

Organization of this subsection

(1) JP1 events are not reported when linking with JP1/IM

Possible causes and solutions:

(2) Monitored PFM - Agent or PFM - RM is not displayed in the monitoring tree window when linking with a monitored object function of JP1/IM

Possible causes and solutions:

(3) The display color of the monitored object does not change when linking with a monitored object function of JP1/IM

Possible causes and solutions:

(4) Startup of the JP1 system event monitor fails

If the [Monitoring Console Https] setting does not match the current encrypted communication setting when a JP1 system event is issued, startup of the JP1 system event monitor will fail. If this occurs, you must change temporarily the encrypted communication setting to match the [Monitoring Console Https] setting when JP1 system events are issued. To determine the [Monitoring Console Https] setting when a JP1 system event is issued, check the URL in the web browser at the time of monitor startup.

    Unable to connect

The PFM - Web Console service is not running on the PFM - Web Console host specified in the <search-WebConsole> tag in config.xml.

Make sure that the PFM - Web Console service is running on the host indicated by host-name. If the service has stopped, start it.

  • Internet Explorer:

    Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

  • Firefox:

    Server Not Found

The host parameter is specified incorrectly for PFM - Web Console specified in the <search-WebConsole> tag in config.xml.

The value specified for the host parameter must be a host name that can be resolved from the host running the browser. Change the settings so that name resolution is possible, or specify a host name that can be resolved to an IP address.

  • Internet Explorer:

    Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

  • Firefox:

    Secure Connection Failed or The connection was reset

The https parameter is specified incorrectly for PFM - Web Console specified in the <search-WebConsole> tag in config.xml.

Change the value of the https parameter as follows according to the encrypted communication setting of PFM - Web Console installed on the host indicated by host-name:

  • If encrypted communication is enabled: on

  • If encrypted communication is disabled: off

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Encrypted communication is enabled for PFM - Web Console specified in the <search-WebConsole> tag in config.xml, but the Web browser (Internet Explorer) is not configured to use TLS.

Enable TLS communication in the Web browser settings.

For details, see the section explaining how to configure a Web browser to use the monitoring console in the JP1/Performance Management Planning and Configuration Guide.

500 Internal Server Error

The version of PFM - Web Console specified in the <search-WebConsole> tag in config.xml is earlier than 11-10.

Check the version of PFM - Web Console installed on the host indicated by host-name.

Security warning message shown below#

  • Internet Explorer:

    Content was blocked because it was not signed by a valid security certificate.

  • Firefox:

    Your connection is not secure

For PFM - Web Console running on the host indicated by host-name, the host name (Common Name) specified in the server certificate does not match the host name specified for the host parameter in the <search-WebConsole> tag in config.xml.

Make sure that the host name (Common Name) specified in the server certificate matches the host name specified for the host parameter in the config.xml. If a host name in FQDN format is specified in Common Name, you need to specify the value in the format host-name + domain-name for the host parameter in config.xml.

You can use the jpcwtool https output certtext command to check the value specified for Common Name. For details about this command, see the chapter that describes the command in the manual JP1/Performance Management Reference.

From a browser, access the PFM - Web Console instance that is displayed as the host name.

When you access PFM - Web Console, the following security message appears:

- Internet Explorer:

The security certificate on this Web site was issued for the address of another Web site.

- Firefox:

This certificate is valid only for the host name (Common Name) that is configured in the server certificate.

For details about the actions to be taken if any other security warning message appears, see 17.2.4(4) A security warning window is displayed in the web browser.
