GroupWise WebAccess outages continue 2009-02-01

As if it heard that it is going to be replaced and is now throwing a tantrum, the GroupWise WebAccess server continues to freeze up and become unresponsive to queries. I am rebooting the server on a regular basis to minimize disruption, but the time in between incidents varies.

A Novell consultant has been contacted to resolve the problem, though he may not be available until Monday.

Regular client access appears to still work. Ironically, or perhaps as a demonstration of why we are moving this way, Google Apps Gmail continues to work- users are able to log in, send and receive mail.

Further updates as events warrant.

2008-12-12 Problem solved: Slow logins, LDAP errors, and Groupwise crashes

This week has been busy trying to fix slow login issues which appear to have been caused by problems with our LDAP server and a Groupwise server that crashed every day.

These seem to be fixed now.

We installed a patch on Monday on Groupwise, and it has stayed up ever since. The LDAP issue has been fixed, so the authentication service no longer hangs. This should fix the login problems that people have experienced. If you are still having those issues, please contact the helpdesk.

Good news for Brooklyn: the drive imaging service now works at Brooklyn again, so we won't have to bring computers back to the DSO to image them.
