Keep losing service after a day
Each morning that i come in and check my sun ray server that i installed on a 4200, it seems to have dropped the service somehow. A utrestart doesn't work and trying the restart (both warm and cold) from the web administration page just give errors. I am running the v4 beta( sun-ray 3.1 with the latest patch, and the sunray connector). One thing that did seem odd to me is that i attempted to add the t-patch that was in the 3.1 zipped file. I got errors saying it was already installed, however when I did a showrev -p there was no 120880 patch. Everything seems to work just fine after a system reboot, but that is the only hting I can do to get the service back. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Tony

Tony,I had a similar problem with a 4200. I re-seated the memory and the problems cleared up. That may or may not be your problem, but it's worth a try.-David Palmer

What does "has dropped the service" mean? What do the Sun Rays show at that point?
Are the Sun Ray daemons -- utauthd, utessiond -- still running on the server? (utauthd is actually a Java process so look for 'java ... utauthd'.) If you run utgstatus at that point what does it show?
What do the last few messages in the logfiles in /var/opt/SUNWutt/log say?
When you try utrestart, what happens?
When you try to restart from the GUI, what happens? What messages get written to the admin_log file in /var/opt/SUNWut/log?
SRSS keeps a lot of state in /tmp/SUNWut. Do you run an overnight cron job that tries to "tidy up" /tmp? If something is deleting the SRSS files in there that can certainly be enough to break Sun Ray.

All of the daemons are still running, but the sunrays don't find the connection. The dhcp server is still running and they get an ip, but they can't connect to the sunray server. they do show the server ip in the connection box but never connect. When I run a utrestart it runs like it would if the server was running. doesn't throw any errors. When I do it from the gui, it comes back and says it had an error issuing the restart command. The big problem is I wont have the box for a week or so, so I can't test any of this stuff. Thanks for all of the info and I will post again when I have more information.
