Web Interface not starting on Linux

Hello,

I've got a problem with getting the Web Interface for the ESET File Security package I've installed running.

I'm running Fedora 11, and have followed the instructions HERE. But at step 8, after restarting the eset_daemon service the wwwi module doesn't start up.

Here's the output of the command to check service:

Code:

[root@fileserver esets]# ps -e | grep esets
25435 ?        00:00:00 esets_daemon
25436 ?        00:00:05 esets_daemon

No wwwi process

Here's the wwwi portion of the eset.cfg file:

Code:

[wwwi]
# Settings for ESETS Web Interface configuration module

# agent_enabled = yes/no
# Enables operation of the esets_wwwi.
agent_enabled = yes

# listen_addr = "address"
# Address (IP or name) where esets_wwwi listens for HTTPS client connections.
# If set to 0.0.0.0 then esets_wwwi listens on all available network interfaces.
listen_addr = "0.0.0.0"

# listen_port = port
# TCP port where esets_wwwi listens for HTTPS client connections.
# You may have to open this port in your firewall.
listen_port = 9999

# username and password needed for accessing the interface (required)
username = "test"
password = "test"

Any ideas on why the wwwi process isn't starting?

Thanks

 

Hello,

I'm wondering if perhaps another service (non-eset related) is listening on the port. Try running this from the terminal and see if that lends any clues:

netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep 9999

Thanks,

Matt

 

Thanks for reply MattJN.

I ran that command but it didn't return any results.

Is there a way to start the process manually (ie not via the eset deamon)?
Any logs I should be looking in? (sorry I've only intermediate linux knowledge)

 

Any further ideas on what might be wrong or how to investigate this issue?
