dannycorker Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Hi all, hoping I've missed something stupid here, not sure what to do unfortunately. I have just finished moving my Microserver from my family home to my flat. At home it was working fine, and I could power down and reboot no problems. I've got it connected up here, but going to 'http://tower' didn't work. So I tried typing the IP address it used to be, which also didn't work, either in the browser or through putty. So, I plugged in a VGA cable to run ifconfig and get the IP address, but there was no login prompt like I expected to see. I could see that packages had finished installing, and then there is a message sitting at the bottom of the screen saying: 'warning: commands will be executed using /bin/sh' And no commands seem to do anything at all. I can't even work out a way to power it down, CTRL-ALT-DELETE does work to reboot it though. So does anyone have a suggestion for what to do when there isn't even a login prompt? The troubleshooting page doesn't seem to mention that possibility, and a quick search on here came up with nothing EDIT: Sorry, forgot to mention I'm running 4.7. And I'm still using the same Switch, which is connected to the same computers as before, just a new internet connection feeding it all. I would attach a syslog but without being able to log in I don't know how Quote Link to comment

Joe L. Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 put flash drive on window's box. edit config/go script to contain only "emhttp" command (comment out all the other lines for now) reboot. Might be an incompatible add-on. Quote Link to comment

dannycorker Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 OK it has now booted Unfortunately I can't seem to connect to it though, even by using its IP address Quote Link to comment

dannycorker Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 All seems good now, there were some high level server problems with the provider that weren't helping! Thanks for all the help Quote Link to comment
