Troubleshooting if the Browser Interface Does Not Load

If using a Windows operating system and the web browser cannot load the

browser interface using one of the methods above. Refer to Network

Requirements on page 156.

Viewing System Information

After the Kaleidescape server is installed, powered on, and has an active

network link, use the following procedure to check server status and change

settings for the installation site.

1. Open the installer pages of the browser interface.

a. With a single Kaleidescape System on the network, open a web

browser and enter http://my-kaleidescape/installer (Windows) or

http://my-kaleidescape.local/installer (Mac).

Note: The System URL has the name my-kaleidescape but that name can be

changed on the

PREFERENCES

tab. If the System URL has been changed,

use the new address.

b. If setting up separate (non-grouped) systems, each with a dedicated

server on the same subnet, and System URLs have not been

changed, use an address beginning with ks- followed by all twelve

digits of the server serial number.

Example:

http://ks-00001000040b/installer (Windows) or

http://ks-00001000040b.local/installer (Mac)

2. If a login page appears, enter the installer password if necessary and

click

Note: This step is not necessary if no password was set.

The installer

HOME

page appears, displaying basic system status

information. See Figure 4-1. (If a different installer page appears, select

the

HOME

tab.)

The left side of the page lists all Kaleidescape components in the

system.

3. Verify that the connection is to the correct server by checking the serial

number listed.

The

HOME

page also shows software version, number of movies and

albums on the server, as well as storage capacity and usage.
