Not listening on port 3260

At this point maybe a remote viewing might help. Can you send me an email via the forum and I will tell what to do next.

Thanks Todd for your assistance.

I will make one last attempt before calling for your help: I will shutdown the ESX, reboot the DSS machine so it runs the latest updates and no connections are running and try to connect.

If the cert issue (weird: removing the root from the trusted authorities in my personal store gets me to the login, but no further?) has been fixed, I will download some logs.

Will get back to you soon...

Make sure after rebooting the ESX server to use the reset function for the iSCSI Targets in Location
MAINTENANCE -> connections -> Function: iSCSI connection reset.

Hi Todd

This is clearly not my best day: I was able to fix the certificate issue by clearing the cache and downloading the SSLcert from the webinterface.

I did a reset of all iSCSI connections and tried again: no luck, still Authentication error.

I then rebooted the server to run with the latest updates, but now it only returns a blank page! No errors on the console and I can see the webserver is running by trying any non-existing path.
I tried on 3 machines, so I guess something is wrong with the update (85).
Let's reboot back into previous state...

Sounds for sure something is acting up. Any chance you can do a fresh install of the DSS V6 on another USB flash stick w/ the previous version like your doing now?

I recreated a certificate, but a reboot with version 85 gave me a "selftest OK" again, but still a blank screen.

Rebooted into version 80 and I'm back in...

While the ESX was still off, I removed the IP restrictions on all targets, so they were set to "ALL" on "Allowed" and disabled the CHAP authentication for all of them.

But still, no luck with adding the target portal to any MS iSCSI initiator...

Can you post the logs for us to see or to support.
