Installed membase server yesterday and configured on my dev laptop on my home network. A server 192.168.1.180 was created. I came into the office today and my memcacached caching doesn't work at all which i assume is because it shouldn't be able to connect to this address in my office! well i went into the membase console the delete server button is disabled so i tried to add a new server without luck -- just got a generic error message (Attention - Save request returned error.). i then tried to do it via the command line, here's what i got

C:\Program Files\Membase\Server\bin\cli>membase server-add --cluster=127.0.0.1:8
091 -u Administrator -p password --server-add=127.0.0.1:8091 --server-add-userna
me=Administrator --server-add-password=password
ERROR: unable to server-add 127.0.0.1:8091 (500) Internal Server Error
[u'Unexpected server error, request logged.']

however, checking status works fine

C:\Program Files\Membase\Server\bin\cli>membase server-list --cluster=127.0.0.1:
8091 -u Administrator -p password
ns_1@192.168.1.180 192.168.1.180:8091 healthy inactiveAdded

what's going on here?

The delete server button is disabled because you only have one server...you'll have to delete the config (C:\Program Files\Membase\Server\config\ns_1\config.dat) and restart the service.

You probably want to follow the directions from this forum post: http://techzone.couchbase.com/forums/thread/issues-dhcp-development-laptop to avoid that in the future.

I'll have to do some experiments, I suspect the server-list response is incorrect.

Hi,
I have encountered the same issue with MacOs. After I deleted the previous installed membase, I have tried to intall a new one, however, I have encoutered "Save request returned error." during Configuration. It seems like there is some previous config left on the machine. Would anybody know what should I next?

Thanks in advance.
yw
