Cause
The beacon is designed to work with Basic Authentication. If this is not configured this error may occur.Resolution
Configure the ManageSoftRL node in IIS on the FNMP server to only use ?Basic Authentication?:
Once this has been done, run iisreset to restart the iis services.
Additional Information
On FNMS 2015 ONLY once you have set basic authentication, if you still get 409 errors you may be experiencing a known issue where the resolvers have difficulty processing discovery files into the database.A patch was created to improve the way discovery files (and others) are resolved into the database, to apply it follow the instructions below:
- Stop IIS while carrying out these steps and then start it back up again afterwards.
- Take a backup of all Flexera..dll and ManageSoft..dll files in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexera Software\FlexNet Manager Platform\Importers\bin location into a new folder outside the bin folder
- Copy the DLLs from the attached "http_409.zip" into the above location
- Make this further change in Importers\web.config
- <add key="WorkloadMaxLimit-discovery" value="25" />
- Update the "InventoryDatabaseConnectionString" registry key to have a "Max Pool Size" of a 1000, the key is located in the following hive with an example below:
- Hive: Managesoft Corp > Managesoft >Reporter >CurrentVersion.
- Example Key: Driver={SQL Server};Server=<ServerName>;database=<DatabaseName>;Trusted_Connection;Max Pool Size=1000
This issue has been permantly resolved in FNMS 2015 R2 SP1, it is recommended to upgrade to this version or higher.
