2.6.1 Engine Won't Start

Can't seem get the engine to start after a fresh install. I'm guessing it has something to do with the license, but the line "Credentials "***Windows***" are not valid due to a missing account name, salt value or rights group." seems suspect as well. Saw some other posts that received replies suggesting there were some bugs relating to getting the engine to start and I've emailed filereporter@novell.com but haven't heard back yet. It's possible I'm being impatient, but I figured I'd post on here too in case it's not the same issue.

Here's my log:

    I had the same issue and went back through the Engine configuration and in the section that asks for eDir Default Server Address I changed from a DNS hostname to IP address and that fixed it. I could ping the hostname from the NFR server but apparently the engine still did not like the DNS name.

    File Reporter Support emailed me back with this:

    Here's the relevant excerpt of your log file:

    01 2015-11-20 15:27:26 -28800 5 8003 3240 4072 CCSecurityContextPoolService - Successfully authenticated all of the credentials and filled the security context pool with 1 entries.
    01 2015-11-20 15:27:26 -28800 5 0001 3240 3528 ML: The license's tree "KFCS" is an eDir tree, and it will be verified against this server's Primary eDir Tree "".
    01 2015-11-20 15:27:26 -28800 3 0001 3240 3528 ML: Failed to verify the license file, License Status = 14.

    Essentially, the Engine server can't reach the eDir tree to authenticate the license. This is probably simply a case of SLP configuration information missing from the Novell Client's SLP properties; please make sure SLP scopes and DAs are correct in the Novell Client, restart the server, and try again. Thanks.

    That did it! Amazing, thank-you for your help. File Reporter Support had me going down this terrible SLP rabbit's hole. THANKS

    Cancel that. Now I'm getting this error: "Value does not fall within the expected range." It pops up when I attempt to start the web site.

    Fixed this. URL bindings were all screwy.
