SharePoint thinks new Server is offline?
- by emalamisura
I added an index server to the topology, and tried to switch it from the front end to the index server but for some reason I get an exception every time in Central Admin saying the server is offline. I checked everything...
IIS is running and is serving out correctly
The App Pool Identity is valid
I restarted IIS
I restarted the Indexing server
I had a wierd problem when installing SP2 for SharePoint, (WSS sp2 installed fine) where it got stuck and "Upgrading SharePoint Products and Technologies" and I had to run the following command to get it to continue:
psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait -force
After that it said it succeeded with no errors...
The only thing I haven't done is reboot the Primary server cause I have to do it in off hours, but I want to make sure I have covered all my other bases first...Any ideas?
