Solution #2: Registry Hack
If solution #1 is not possible in your case, you can add a registry entry that disables port 80 redirection for PRTG.
Important: Please make proper backup before editing the registry!
In the registry editor, go to
32bit: HKLM\Software\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor\Server\Webserver 64bit: HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor\Server\Webserver
Note: For the deprecated PRTG versions 7 and 8, you might see the values in the additional sub-keyV7 or V8.
There, create a new DWORD value with the name
NoSSLRedirect
Set this value to 1 to disable port 80 redirection. Set it to 0 to enable port 80 redirection again.
Good morning, I found an easier way to do this under Windows Server 2008 R2 by using AH’s method 1.
Go to Registry, under Services, then for those two PRTG services, simply add vpxd vctomcat to DependOnService.
So the next time I restart the server, PRTG will always run after vpxd and vctomcat loaded.
Finally please make sure the service for both PRTG is set to “Delayed Start” as well as for both vpxd vctomcat services.
Hope this helps.
Which ports does PRTG use on my system?
Required ports for VMware vCenter Server 5.5 (2051575)
