RE: v7r1 my admin server is not coming up in any web browser -- MIDRANGE-L

I did try the https// and it is saying " This site can't provide a secure connection"

Someone mentioned an older version on IE. I will try that.

thanks

I suspect your issue is http:. Try https: instead.
Newer versions of the OS have reverted to http: since many people don't get around to disposing of self signed certificates and newer browsers give you no end of grief if you use self signed certificates.
Since you're using 7.1 it probably is still using https

Any reason the server is not running if I ran STRTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(*ADMIN) and it shows up on wrkactjob

ADMIN QTMHHTTP BCH .0 PGM-QZHBMAIN SIGW
ADMIN QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QZSRLOG SIGW
ADMIN QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QZSRHTTP SIGW

Can't find anything in the logs.

Like I said I've done this for years and was always able to get in the browser. Problem was always installing the cert.

Hello Dean,

I am trying to update my web site certificate. Have been doing this for many years now.
When trying to access after starting admin server I am getting "This
site can't be reached" Refused to connect

http://10.x.x.x:2001

This means the server itself isn't running.

I am in Chrome, but doesn't seem to matter what browser.

Of course not. :-)

I do this once every two years so maybe doing something dumb or not doing something smart.

Any spooled files/Job logs? Messages in QTMHHTTP?

:wq! PoC
