Hi,

   I had installed OBIEE 12c and it was up and running in one of my VM. Due to some reason, I restarted that VM and started all OBIEE 12C services using start.cmd. Now, I can see all components status are RUNNING. But, when I'm trying to access EM, Console or Analytics, then I'm getting following error on the browser:

This site can't be reached.

Hostname refused to connect.

Could anyone help me to solve this issue ?

PS : Firewall was disabled and it's a VM.

    May be an DNS problem, can you direct use ip address? 

    Can you access EM on your VM's browser?

    I replaced localhost to ipaddress. But, I'm still getting same error.

    I can't access EM/console/Analytics from my VM's browser.

    Hello,

    1. Do you have an dynamic IP in your HOST, check if this is that?

    2. Do you use Windows OS? If the answer its yes, do you use a loopback adapter?

    Kind Regards,

    Hi,

    1. It seems to be dynamic IP, even I'm not 100% sure, but from network configuration, I can see "Obtain an IP address automatically" was checked.

    2. Yes, It is Windows OS. Not sure, how to confirm loopback adapter. If I'm not wrong, you are asking about Ethernet Adapter. If yes, then it is Virtual Ethernet Adapter. 

    Thanks,

    Hello,

    1. If you have have this option checked, possibly your IP Address was changed, go to the CMD of you windows,

       apply your IP Addres

     

       > ipconfig

       > Check the number of your IP, check if these IP is the same of your HOST file, if this is different change your IP

    2. There is some steps to create your lookback adapter

    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc708341(v=ws.10).aspx

    How do you go to -> Control Pane-> Internet and Networking -> Network Connection

    Here you have to have the loopback adapter.

    1. I didn't see any entries in hosts file (All are commented).

    2. I can see only one ethernet adapter i.e. Local Area Connection (Oracle VM Virtual Ethernet Adapter)

    1. OK edit your HOST yout file, and ADD the IP ADDRESS that you GET in your CMD command ( ipconfig )

      in your HOST FILE, check this sample:

        <your_ip_address>    <your-hostname.domain> <your-hostname>

        192.168.1.101             YOURPC.DOMAIN        YOURPC

    2. Create your loopback adapter, check this link, with step by step images

    3. When you try to connect go the path of URL, in your browser:


    You default URL:


    http://YOURPC.DOMAIN:9704/analytics

    1. I have made an entry with current ip address and pc.domain

    2. I couldn't find that application in Windows 2008 R2 OS. Does it have any impact on other applications, which are running on the same server ?
