KB1001: Error Codes
Error Code 1001: The License information you entered is incorrect, please try again (this error code means you have entered an invalid username or password)

Error Code 1002: The License Key you entered is incorrect, please try again (this error code means you have entered an invalid license key or that the key does not exist in our license server)

Error Code 1003: This License Key has already been activated, please try a different License Key (this error code usually means the license key you are trying to activate is currently activated on another server, please use the transfer option available inside your account)

Error Code 1004: This License Key has been disabled, please contact echoPANEL support department (this error code usually means there is an ownership conflict, please notify us through the support centre)

Error Code 1005: You have attempted to install a newer version than you are entitled to, please contact echoPANEL support department (this error code usually means the version you are attempting to install is newer than your license key permits, please use the upgrade option available on the purchase page)

KB1002: Transferring an echoPANEL License Key to a different server
Transferring an echoPANEL license key to a different server is both permitted and possible. To do this, simply log in to your account, click the transfer link beside the license key you wish to transfer, and follow the instructions on screen.
KB1003: Unique Microsoft FTP & Microsoft SMTP Identifiers
In order for echoPANEL to communicate with Microsoft FTP and Microsoft SMTP Service, it needs to know the unique Identifiers of these applications. By default, these Identifiers are 1, and no changes should be required, but if you experience errors on the Settings page, it may be necessary to edit the echoPANEL Identifier file.

To do this, open DRIVE:\Program Files\Sanamato\echoPANEL\App\Root\ Includes\identifiers.txt and follow the instructions at the top of the file.

KB1004: Configuring Serv-U to be compatible with echoPANEL
In order for echoPANEL to communicate with Serv-U, Serv-U must be installed as a service, and store its domain settings in the registry.

If you are experiencing problems, you can confirm Serv-U configuration parameters as follows;

  • To check if Serv-U is running as service, open Serv-U Administrator, highlight your server in the left pane, and in the right pane there should be a check in "Start automatically (system service)"
     
  • To check how Serv-U is storing its domain settings, open Serv-U Administrator, highlight your domain (below Domains) in the left pane, and in the right pane the Domain type should be "Store in computer registry"

If the above settings are correct but you are still having problems, it is very likely due to having more than one domain in Serv-U.

KB1005: Configuring SmarterMail to be compatible with echoPANEL
In order for echoPANEL to communicate with SmarterMail, SmarterMail must be running under IIS, and not using built-in SmarterMail web server.

There is a thorough help topic regarding this in the official SmarterMail Help documentation located here.

If SmarterMail is running under IIS but you are still having problems, check the following;

  • Ensure you have stopped and disabled the SmarterMail built-in web server
     
  • Ensure the IP Address shown in IIS is not 127.0.0.1
     
  • Ensure you have entered the correct information below the Basic Settings tab, on the echoPANEL Settings page
KB1006: Opening your firewall for echoPANEL
To use echoPANEL from a remote location, you must open Port 5555 in your firewall software.

Given the variety of firewalls on the market, we cannot explain how do that here, but it is generally a simple task and should be outlined in your firewall documentation.

KB1007: The WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) Service
If you are encountering numerous problems with echoPANEL, or echoPANEL simply doesn't run, the first thing you need to check is, is whether or not the WMI service is running.

To do this, click on Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools > Services and look for Windows Management Instrumentation, then confirm the service is Started and set to Automatic.

KB1008: Problems with MS FTP
If you are experiencing communication problems between echoPANEL and Microsoft FTP, please review these possible causes;
  • There is a unique Identifier mismatch, see article KB1003
     
  • You have more than one FTP Site (you only require Default FTP Site)
     
  • The FTP Site in IIS is stopped
KB1009: Problems with your FTP Client Software
If you are experiencing FTP User connection problems within your FTP Client software, please review these possible causes;
  • Passive Mode is interfering with the connection, and may need to be disabled
     
  • You are not using the correct IP Address, username or password
KB1010: Problems with a new installation
If you are experiencing problems after installing a newer version of echoPANEL (over top of a previous version) or simply want to revert back to the previous version, you have two options;
  • Uninstall echoPANEL from the Windows Start Menu, and re-install your previous version using the correct echoPANEL.exe file (recommended)
     
  • If for some reason, you cannot or do not wish to use the method above, you can perform a similar operation by replacing the new files manually. To do this, you will need to be logged into your server with administrator rights, where echoPANEL is installed
  1. Logout of echoPANEL, and close your browser
     
  2. Open C:\Program Files\Sanamato\echoPANEL (this only applies if you selected the default path during the installation)
     
  3. Look for a folder called Backup
     
  4. Inside the Backup folder, open the backup_date folder where "date" reflects the most recent date
     
  5. Copy everything below the backup_date folder
     
  6. Move back up to the C:\Program Files\Sanamato\echoPANEL folder and paste, overwriting the existing files

Use the second method described above only as a last resort. In most cases this will work fine, but could cause undesirable results. Use at your own risk.

Regardless of which method you choose, any Websites, Email Accounts or FTP Users created while the new version was installed will be not be visible in echoPANEL when you revert back to the previous version, and it may be necessary to manually delete them from IIS, your mail server, and your ftp server to prevent duplication problems.

KB1011: The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)
This error typically means that you do not have the .NET Framework installed (or enabled) on your server.

By default .NET 1.1 is installed with Windows Server 2003. If you are attempting to install echoPANEL on a different Operating System, it will not work properly.

If you are running Windows Server 2003, you can check the status of .NET, as follows;
  1. Open IIS, click on Web Service Extensions in the left pane, and confirm that ASP.NET v1.1.4322 is visible and Allowed, in the right pane view.
     
  2. Open Windows Explorer, and navigate to C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework and look for a folder called "v1.1.4322".

If the .NET Framework is not installed, the preferred method of installation is through Windows Update but if for some reason, you cannot use this method, it can be downloaded directly from;

.NET Framework 1.1
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=262d25e3-f589-4842-8157-034d1e7cf3a3&DisplayLang=en

And the latest service pack, after the above installation, can be found at;

.NET Framework 1.1 SP1
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a8f5654f-088e-40b2-bbdb-a83353618b38&DisplayLang=en

KB1012: Unable to load MailEnable API DLL "or" Unable to load DLL (MEAIPO.DLL)
If you see the "Unable to load MailEnable API DLL..." error on the echoPANEL Settings page, or receive a .NET script error similar to the following;

Server Error in '/' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unable to load DLL (MEAIPO.DLL).
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL (MEAIPO.DLL).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:1.1.4322.2407; ASP.NET Version:1.1.4322.2407

There has likely been an ASP.net 1.1 failure to copy the MailEnable DLL to the correct folder during the MailEnable and/or echoPANEL program installation.

There are two possible methods to fix this;

  1. The quickest and safest is reboot your server
     
  2. If the first option does not solve the problem, open IIS, and switch the .NET version of the echoPANEL website to .NET 2.0, save, then switch back to .NET 1.1, and save
