What's going on, guys? It is Bernardo. And today is all about I can't log into my Kiwi
system log server, my web access portal, and I'm going to show you guys how to fix it.
So let's get right into that. All right. So if you have been following me and my little kind
of I don't know if this is a mini series dealing with the Kiwi system log, we did the installation.
I show you guys how to get the web, you know, the Web portal up and running when it was not
loading up and also show you guys how to configure a Windows server or a Windows Machine to forward
its event logs to the system server. Right. Kiwi version. Right. So for some reason,
when I loaded up my Web access, it was running and I entered the administrative password.
It wasn't allowing me to load up. I did a little research. It looks like you need to have
SSL enabled on to your Kiwi system log web access server
for it to allow you to log in, which is weird, right? So I'm going to show
you guys how I did it. So on the desktop, I'm going to click on Start within start.
We are going to locate the Utilities Dev Web App Explorer. It's going to load up.
And the first thing that we need to do is click on Eco System
SSL certificate and et cetera. So click on that and we want to create a new certificate.
So click on create a new certificate and we are going to click on Create Self Signed
Test Certificate and we are going to pick your IP address or host for me.
I picked my host, right? So I clicked on OK, it's going to prompt you this. So just click OK.
And underneath where say certificate eligible for SSL, you're going to see your new self
signed certificate, which is a good thing. Now next thing that we need to do is click on this
button that says Click to register new site for applications with the utility dev web server.
So click on that. You're going to get this. We are going to leave it as the default option,
which is the first one. Click next here. The next tab is going to be this. I left it as the default,
which was ASP.net 4.0. Click next here on this tab, I pick one as a 32 bit on this 64 bit system.
Click next for your host process. I pick local system,
click next here and for your documentation we are going to click on Browse for Default doc.
And the location that we are going to go is inside the C Drive programs and files x 64.
We're going to locate SolarWinds. We're going to click on Kiwi System Log Web Access.
We're going to go inside the HTML folder and within the HTML folder,
we're going to locate the Gateway.aspx file so select it and then click on Open. From here,
we're going to go inside the application name. It says HTML. So we're going to
remove it and we're going to add system log D or sys log D, right?
Just the way you see it. And then we're going to click on next for the network location tab your
virtual directory. We're going to select that and we're going to remove it now for your listening
addresses by default is going to listen for 80
we don't want that. We want it to listen for four, four, three, which is to, you know, https.
So we're going to select that and we're going to remove it. It's optional. You
don't really need to do that, but if you want your services to listen to Port 80 go for it,
from here the next thing that we need to go is within the section where it says https forward
slash SSL Listen addresses. We are going to click on that Add button and we're going to
pick our certificate and we're going to click on next here you are able to find a free port.
I left it as a default, which is four, four, three, and we are going to just click OK and
then click next here for authentication. We are going to leave it as the default as
anonymous click next from here, we're going to leave everything as the default
and just click on finish and then bam, you're good to go.
Now, our next thing that we need to do is open up a browser. We need to test it out. So we need
to type in HTTPS colon, forward slash, forward slash. I gave it the full qualified domain name of
my system log server, and once I hit enter I got I received this, which was a good thing, right?
Good sign. So I clicked on Advanced and I clicked on proceed to,
you know, the name of my server I clicked on it. It took me here. Once I got this, I entered
my administrative username and my password and I clicked on log in and, and let me logged in,
which was a good thing before it basically said, no, you wasn't authorized to go in and I was
entering the correct username and password, but it wasn't allowing me to get into the web access.
Hopefully guys enjoy this video and I catch you guys in the next one peace out.
