Virtualization



title: "Retrospect Virtual - Error: Cannot connect to listening IP address" created_at: 2019.09.14 updated_at: 2019.09.14 category: Virtualization --- If you have configured a specific listening IP address for your Retrospect Virtual Management Console and can no longer connect to it, try the following:

  1. On the machine where Retrospect Virtual Management Console is installed, go to services.msc and check if Retrospect Virtual Management Console is started. If not, start it, and try connecting to the Retrospect Virtual Management Console again.

  2. If the Retrospect Virtual Management Console is started, right click on it and choose Stop.

  3. Go to C:\Program Files\RetrospectVMC\conf and make a copy of server.xml as a backup.

  4. Edit server.xml and locate the two lines with the parameter "address=" (without quotations).

  5. This will have the currently configured listening IP address. Change both to address="0.0.0.0".

  6. Save the xml file and start the Retrospect Virtual Management Console service back up.

  7. Wait about 5 minutes then try connecting to the Retrospect Virtual Management Console through the loopback address (127.0.0.1).
