8.4 Install

[bscal]

I am doing a separate install of 8.4 in a different directory than 8.3 on my production box.  The install goes fine but when I try to access the Admin tool I get the below error

DPR-ERR-2022

      No response generated. This may be due to an incorrect configuration, a damaged installation, or because the dispatcher did not finish initializing.

Can you install 8.4 with 8.3 running on the same machine.

Are you using an empty/new Content Store ? Or did you move the old content along to the new ? if so how did you do this ?
Did you copy over any system.xml files from the old install ? if so that might have corrupted you instance.

[bscal]

No this was brand new install.  And a new content database.  I was wondering if there are any ports that are associated to the cog admin tool.  My production environment will block ports.  I am using 9301 and a different log and shutdown port for this install.  An no system xml file have been copied

[kolonell]

the only one I am aware of is the dispatcher port (9301). A good way to test if it's the firewall is to access it on the server locally and type in http://localhost/cognos8 .
Speaking of Virtual Directories, You did create new virtual directories for 8.4 and they are pointing to the 8.4 folders ?   

[bscal]

Yes I did create new Virtual directories.

I can connect to cognos connection fine it is just the admin tool that gets the error

[ducthcogtechie]

has the cognos connection webadres been added in the trusted zone in IE?

[bscal]

Yes,

Just talked to Cognos and they said to increase the ports by 100 and not 1.

Thanks for your help,

It turns out that the install is bad
