Plesk Firewall - Please Help!

[softpac2000]

I am getting this error when I click on the firewall icon in Plesk 7.5.3 for Windows:

winfwmng failed: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know how to fix this?...

Thanks in advance!

Try to go server>component managem,ent>firewall and choose None, then go back and choose firewall again.

I tried this and still getting errors. I tried a clean install and still does the same thing.

Another system error

Thank you all for your replies!...

I have found what the problem is!...

If you have a Firewire port (1394), go to Network Connections, in the Windows Control Panel, and disable the Firewire Adapter (1394).

I guess Plesk can't handle Firewire just yet!

That will do the trick!..

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info. Whats the best procedure or practice here? Windows 2003 Standard edition and Plesk 7.5.3.

Can sp1 be applied to the current build?

 

[softpac2000]

You should be able to apply Windows Server 2003 SP1 with no problem at all!

But then again! With Plesk you never know what can happen!

So make sure you do a full system backup before you do so!
