fwm/cpm not starting after backup-restore - Waiting until NGM server is up

Hi,

 

This is on a Checkpoint R80.10 Management-only standalone Server (no MDM).

Problem: no smartcenter connection possible, cannot manage firewall.


Steps performed that led to the problem:

1. An attempted upgrade via GAIA-WebGUI failed.

2. To recover, installed R80.10 from DVD, + Jumbo Patch.

3. backup restore local -> no errors, but also no logfile.

4. After reboot, no smartconsole connection possible

5. fwm daemon is started/running, but does NOT listen on its port 19009.
    netstat -anp | grep 190
    (shows nothing)


There is an error message in:
/var/log/opt/CPsuite-R80/fw1/log/fwm.elg


 Waiting until NGM server is up




What is NGM?
How can i fix this problem?

R80.10 is End of Support, just FYI.

cpm is actually what listens on port 19009 (now fwm, which listens on port 18190).
On what precise hardware is this?
If this is Open Server or VM, please specify the number of cores and the amount of RAM installed/allocated.

Hi PhoneBoy,

 

it is a OpenServer, Dell PE R730, 10Core  CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz, 16GB RAM, 2TB Disk (about 1% used). 

I have no process named cpm and nothing is listening on TCP18190.

R80.10 being EOL was the reason for the (failed) update...

 

If i look into cpm.elg, i see truncated java crash traces. One line stands out:

 

Caused by: com.checkpoint.infrastructure.utils.runtime.CpAssertionError: failed to load SIC cert file

 

Which file is that? Do you thing this is the problems cause or just another symptom?

I agree with @PhoneBoy . Can you also run this and see what you get:

cd $FWDIR/scripts

./cpm_status.sh
