Foglight NMS unable to connect to platform solution







Recently My client request me to setup the Network Management System(NMS) server to generate report, the NMS i choose is Quest Foglight NMS ( don't ask me why, is the order from boss and request from client). After i install and want to connect platform, it give me a "unable to connect to platform". I had go through the web to search for solution, and this is all of the problem and solution i can found:


1) Something block the Fodlight NMS port
Check the port 5053 and/or 5054
Open CMD and type "Netstat –anop tcp" . This will display all of the TCP connections. The far right column will identify the Process ID. You can correlate these numbers in Task Manager.Make sure that ports 5053 and 5054 are open and listening. If those ports are occupied by another process or application please stop this application.



2) The main service is not started
Make sure the ptserverservice.exe is started and not blocked by any firewall. If the service is started ,  try open https://localhost:5053/Admin/version.pt through browser and it will be connected.
3) Version is not compatible

That is the cause of my problem, it because i'm using window server2008 R2, the older version of Foglight doesn't support, after i install the latest version, problem solved!
If non of that work, i can tell you save your time, use the other NMS, there are many open source NMS available ( free and user friendly). link: http://download.cnet.com/windows/network-management-software/

Hope this will help, if you have any question, kindly comment below.

How to make sure your antivirus is working

Do you even wonder your AV installed is functioning as it should be?For your information, the cyber world is not safe, some experts can disable your AV. It looks function, but actually not. So it's good to check your AV sometime.

Here's a coding which is great for checking to make sure your anti-virus is working (Real time scanning, spyware protection etc),

Note : if you are only after checking the quality of the AV then this is pointless for you.






1) Open notepad and paste the following code:
X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

2) Save it to .txt file
If your antivirus detects the text document without scanning, then the detection level of your antivirus is excellent. If the AV does not detect the file, then try manually scanning the file with your AV.

If the AV still does not detect the file then change the extension from .txt to .exe

If the AV still does not detect the file , then there is 2 possibility
1) Your AV is suck
2) Someone "did" something to your AV

The best solution is change to the better antivirus

Top 5 free antivirus tool Recommended

antivirus, free antivirus
As a common computer user, which antivirus is suitable for you? some are free and some can even priced hundreds. For myself using computers for ordinary purpose( not for server administrative ), i'm always choose the free version, because all of my important files( software, coding , documentation) is backed up in my personal hard drive, with a free but good antivirus, it's enough to protect your computers from potential harm,

In case when the infected virus is strong enough, and the free 1 are unable to handle, i will always choose to remove manually ( see How to remove dangerous virus manually ). If the problem still exist, i'm will just simply format it ( see how to format your computer) . With all essential software and driver installer backed up, you can get a healthy and fast computer again in matter of hours.

all the antivirus will only tell you their product are the best, so the review from experienced user( i suppose is me) if considered sincere                                                            and trustworthy.

Here's my personal recommendation of antivirus( only free) you can have after i tested all of it and get a positive result.


1) Avira Free antivirus
My personal first choice. First it's free, second is it affect less on your computer's performance compare with other antivirus( AVX or BUTDEFENDER ) . It also have fascinating real time protection ( although many false positive). if you are an ordinary computer user for only social media and mailing purpose, i suggest you use this antivirus.

2) ComboFix
For me it's not quite consider antivirus, cause it doesn't have real time protection, and it can only remove spyware and malware manually. But it's still my best recommendation so far due to its effectiveness . I had
experience that my computer facing a serious infection, my computer getting slow and my file started become corrupted. When i almost choose to format my computer, i tried the ComboFix and surprise, problem solved!

way to use:
a) Disable your antivirus real time protection
b) Start ComboFix.exe with administrative privilege( right click and click run as administrator)
c) It will come out a command prompt, wait for it, don't shutdown,close or anything, just wait.
d) Your computer will restart and problem should be solved

3) Anti malwarebyte
Not my first choice , but still good for me if you are using a low performance computer, because it is really the most light weighted antivirus so far i had used.

4) AVAST free
So far i known Avast is top ranking antivirus in the world, it's good, but i personally think this AV consume many computer resources.

Download link : from CNET


5) Microsoft Security Essential
So far in Win8 PC user give very good review on it, may be you can try on it.
