If you encounter problems during or after installation, refer to the common issues and resolutions below. For issues not covered here, check the application logs first before contacting support.
Cannot access from remote machines The server was likely configured using 127.0.0.1 (localhost) as the IP address during installation. This restricts access to the local machine only. Reconfigure the server using its actual IP address or domain name.
SMTP not working Email/alert delivery settings can be reconfigured after installation by editing the configuration files in the installation directory. You do not need to reinstall.
Port conflicts If a required port is already in use by another application, the service will fail to start. Confirm all required ports are free before installation. Use the following to check for port conflicts:
On Linux:
sudo ss -tulnp | grep <port>
On Windows:
netstat -ano | findstr <port>
Service errors on startup Check the application logs for error details:
On Linux:
cd /opt/bluelance/lcollector/logs/general/
cd /opt/bluelance/web/server/logs/
On Windows:
\Program Files\Blue Lance 2-0\Web\Apps\Logs\
\Program Files\Blue Lance 2-0\Collector\Logs\General\
Services not starting automatically on reboot (Linux) If services do not restart after a system reboot, ensure they are enabled:
sudo systemctl enable lta-web
sudo systemctl enable lta-collector
PowerShell execution policy error (Windows) If the installation script fails to run, confirm the execution policy is set correctly before running the installer:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
Remember to reset it after installation completes:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Restricted
