Hi All,

Any advice please?

Waiting for IP Address...

Submitted by godber on Sun, 10/25/2009 - 7:54am.

What virtualization platform are you using? The one included with Win7?

Generally problems getting an IP come from one of two places ....

  • Being on a network that lacks a DHCP server or not being connected to a network at all
  • Not configuring the network to be in bridged mode

The JumpBox uses DHCP by default, but if you are in a situation where you do not have a DHCP server available to you, you can manually set the network settings on the JumpBox console.

Unable to configure Manual IP address

Submitted by errol on Fri, 12/04/2009 - 8:55am.

I am trying to run vtigercrm jumpbox on a standalone (non-networked) vista 64 laptop via Vmware player, but cannot get past the 'waiting for IP address' on the JumpBox console page.

Can someone explain how to manually configure the IP address?

Thanks!

Unable to configure Manual IP address - resolved

Submitted by errol on Fri, 12/04/2009 - 10:59am.

I created an IP Address based of the address of the VMware Network Adapter (don't know if this is necessary). Once the Static IP Address was assigned I navigated to Devices - Network Adapter on the VMware menu bar and changed the setting from 'Bridged' to 'Host-only'. I was then able to bring up the JumpBox configuration console.
