[OpenSER-Users] Strange OpenXCAP behaviour in virtualizedenvironment

Dear all
 
I finally found the mistake: My VMWare ESX server for virtualization is
not connected to the internet, my local PC was. It didn't come to my
mind ever before.
 
Although - I never saw it documented anywhere, that OpenXCAP needs
internet access for downloading the namespace files.
 
I would _really_ recommend to add this to the installations instructions
on openxcap.org. 
 
Have a nice weekend!
 
Sebastian

virtualizedenvironment
	
	
	Dear all
	 
	This week, I tried again to bring up finally the OpenXCAP
server. I tried it first acc. the instruction on OpenXCAP.org on my
local virtual VMWare Server 1.0 (before, I always used virtualized ESX
server). It worked without major issues, meaning I could install lenny,
all required files even via apt-get and the OpenXCAP was running.
Surprising for me though, because it never worked yet.
	 
	Now, when I take _the same_ virtual disk and export it to VMWare
ESX server, I get the previously discussed errors:
	Sep 25 17:01:21 openxcap openxcap[11876]: [-] Log opened.

	Sep 25 17:01:27 openxcap openxcap[11876]: [-]
etree.XMLSchemaParseError: Document is not valid XML Schema

	 

	How can this be possible? I tried three times with three
different machines. They work in VMware Server but not in ESX server. I
don't find any answer at all neither can I imagine anyhow, how an
application error like this occurs running the program on the very same,
identical virtualized system with just two different virtualization
platforms around.

	 

	Anybody else has experiences in that, encountered somehow same
strange behaviour with the application or has any other advice? I would
really welcome every hint in somehow a direction to solve this. I didn't
plan to extend my virtual OpenSER testing platform with a local PC, but
it seems I have no other possibility so far...

	 

	Thanks for your help! A nice weekend to all of you.

	 

	Best regards

	Sebastian
