In case your Python is giving your problems on EnsimX server and you get  “500 Internal error” errors then thig guide can help you. I found it on ensim forums and it helped me so I saved it for future reference. Read the rest of this entry »

After upgrading to EnsimX 10.3.0 or in clean  EnsimX 10.3.0 installation there is issue having high MailScanner load.

Take a look at this knowledge base article  for a solution.

 You just download files that belong to your OS and then run

Despite all efforts EnsimX Pro was still using old www.snakeoil.com certificate instead the one I generated/bought for use for apache ssl. I tried various ways how to fix this but epld service was refusing to start or the snakeoil certificate returned back after a few days.

During the time Ensim evolved it used to call its servrice either ‘webppliance’ or ‘epld’ (newer). So the command you need to run as root via shell to restart Ensim is:

If you use version older than 10.x.x

 # service webppliance restart  

If you use version EnsimX for Linux 10.x and higher

# service epld restart

I hope this helps

I always hated to go to Ensim to find out the current version of it.  Finally I  somewhere found a command that writes this info in shell.

He it is: 

cat /usr/lib/opcenter/VERSION

Many times it happened to me - I forgot Ensim’s admin password for web interface or DC has just set some password and they “forgot” to inform me. I usually struggled via ssh how to change it. Not anymore..

 When you need to reset Ensim password do it by this:

/usr/sbin/passwd_appl_admin <username>

It will prompt for the password only once.
