Unable to initialize the Policy Server connection...
Topic 50360 | Web Security Solutions | Updated 22-Oct-2013
Applies to:
Websense Web Filter, Web Security, Web Security Gateway, and Web Security Gateway Anywhere, v7.7, 7.8
Full error message
Unable to initialize the Policy Server connection. Websense Policy Server may be down or unreachable.
Explanation
The Websense Log Server service cannot run without a connection to Policy Server. Any time Policy Server is stopped, or communication between the Log Server and Policy Server machines is blocked, Log Server stops.
Restart Log Server after making sure:
*
Policy Server is running.
*
The Policy Server IP address and UID in the Websense.ini file in the Websense bin directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Websense\Web Security\bin, by default) on the Log Server machine are correct.
The UID in the Websense.ini file should match the one listed in the config.xml file on the Policy Server machine.
