    Posted Jan 06, 2012 07:03 AM

    Hi when I am having a problem when trying to open my endpoint manager. I get the logon screen and put the username and password in then it opens up as I would expect then 1 second later it goes back to the logon screen.

    It doesnt matter how many times I try to logon it does the same thing.

    Im running the latest version of Endpoint as was only downloaded about 2 weeks ago.

    Any help would be great.

    Thanks

    Check for errors relating to the problem in the catalina.out and scm-server-0.log files.

    Hello,

    What version of SEP are you carrying??

    Did you check these Articles - 

    After the login on the console the admin is logged out from the console quickly

     
    The Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager console, begins login but immediately logs out to the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager login window without any error message
     
     
    Hope this helps!!!

    Solution 1:

    1. Go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\php\temp
    2. Right click on the temp folder and go to security tab, check if the IUSR account has full permission\
      1. If not, then apply the same and try to login into the Endpoint Manager. (Valid for Version 11.0)

     Solution 2:

    1. Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
    2. Open the host file with notepad
    3. Towards the end of the file, it should have only these lines

    127.0.0.1       localhost  (Default IP)

    1. If any other IP address is mentioned remove the same and save the file and try to login to the Endpoint Manager.

    You should be able to login into the manager successfully.
