#88 Scan Subnet with Microsoft IIS

[Jambonrange]

Hi !

I installed IPAM on IIS for Win2008 R2 but the scan subnet doesn't work.
I get the following error:

"Error executing scan! Error code - 255 - cmd : e:\WebSites\phpExecutables\php.exe E:\WebSites\IPAM\site\ipaddr\scan......\functions\scan\scanIPAddressesScript.php 'discovery' '10.1.1.0/24' '10'"

I try to change the:

$pathPing = $settings['scanPingPath'];

to:

$pathPing = "C:\Windows\System32\PING.EXE";

Here, the retval was 1000 and now it is 1.

and also the "functions-network.php" file for the pingHost function:
for the "if" corresponding to the WIN option:

$cmd = "$pathPing -n $count -I ".($timeout*1000)." $ip 1>null 2>&1";

to:

$cmd = "$pathPing -n $count -w ".($timeout*1000)." $ip 1>NUL 2>&1";

Here, the retval stays 1 for an existing host or not.

I was wondering if the return code for the windows ping isn't the same as the linux ping.
So I tried to ping a host and then check the retval (echo $?), the result is true or false:

Do you have an idea to make it work ?

Thank you !

For freebsd you have to change permissions on ping executable file. I run it on 2 servers without problems.

version 1.1 have same problem too

There was one thread where removing the timeout helped on windows.

Retval 1000 means ping file is not found.

Regarding return - this is possible that 1 is true and 0 false. Maybe try adding below lines to pingHost function:

//win true/false test
if(is_bool($retval)) { $retval = $retval===false ? 2 : 0; }
