Can't get server to connect to eth0

Recommended Posts

I followed the directions in setting up the CentOS VM exactly as were detailed.  However even after having set the IP and gateway for eth0 when I issue the "service network restart" command I get the following output:

Of course my eth0 IS present as I am able to access the internet as normal via Windows.  Here is the settings for my eth0 in VirtualBox:

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!  I'm stuck until I can get this part working!  Thanks in advance!

Command is incorrect, please use the exact command I sent you.

Ok I did it again using the -a.  Here are the results.  For some reason there is an eth2 and an eth3 but no eth0 or eth1.  Not sure why or which is the one for my ethernet adapter?

So, you have interfaces eth2 and eth3, probably during import you haven't selected option to include all network adapters

To fix this you have to adjust your network adapter configuration file in this case 

nano /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth2

or

nano /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth3

depending which interface is your main one (that you set to your bridged network adapter), probably eth2, set network settings there and proceed further with the installation along with the documentation https://unity.wiki.atavismonline.com/project/atavism-virtual-machine/

Perfect!  Thats the solution I was hoping to find!  I'll give that a try!  Thanks so so much!

Great, let me know if you will need further assistance.

Ok so I did what you suggested.  I set the settings that I had originally set in eth0 to eth2.  I issued "service network restart" after saving eth2 and this is the result:

I would appear while  "sudo ifconfig -a" shows there is eth2 and eth3 the service network restart doesn't see those configs  and / or devices??

BTW, I tried the setting up the Ubuntu VM as well.  It had no problem with setting up the ETH devices, HOWEVER, a the FTP part the connect to 192.168.254.102 simply times out and never connects.  I have no idea why or what needs to be done there.  I'm open to fixing either VM as long as I can get one working!

There is no FTP but SFTP which is FTP over SSH, so you should be able to use simple winscp with SFTP settings and SSH credentials: root/atavism.

You can try to type in the console

ifconfig eth2 up

and the same for eth3 accordingly. It should bring your interface with your settings up. If you don't have eth0 nor eth1, you can remove these two configuration files related to these interfaces.

Well I tried the "ifconfig eth2 up" command and it did absolutely nothing.  So that was a fail.  As for your response about using SFTP Yes I left it set on SFTP and used the proper creds.  All it does is sit there "searching for server...." which is never found and I eventually get a "timed out" message.  I'm wondering if these VM's can't handle new motherboards with the newer Intel 2.5G Ethernet adapters.  Both the CentOS and the Ubuntu VM's have problems initializing the interfaces to the point that neither works.  It's a show stopper for me and without this I will have hit a blocker that will keep me from using the product.  Is there a mac version of the server?  I could try installing that on one of my macbook pro's and see if it works.  Otherwise I'm at a total loss on how to continue.

ifconfig eth2 up

command won't return anything. It should just activate eth2 interface, which then should be visible using

ifconfig -a

Atavism can be installed in any environment. VM is just one of the installation method, but you can use any Linux or Mac to install it directly within the system using Custom Linux installation guide https://unity.wiki.atavismonline.com/project/installation/

Youi can also use any cloud solution, but of course, it will cause some additional expenses.

If you prefer to use VM, we can schedule a TeamViewer session during which we can help you to set your VM with Atavism.
