    Self Check not working: "Circulation system operation failure"

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 19.01

    Description:
    I'm trying to test one of our self check machines with v19 but I can't get it to connect.

    I get the following error from the self check machine:
    Circulation system operation failure - Unable to send a ILS request - check connection and SIP configuration - ERR_SIP_WAIT_FOR_THREAD_START

    And in the self check log (5332) there is only one line:
    Fri May 16 15:18:06 EDT 2008 *** start sip2_server ***

    It looks to me like everything is set up correctly so I haven't been able to find the problem.

    Resolution:
    [From site:]
    I found out that our local network ipf.conf changes did not get reloaded properly. This has been fixed and I have tested the self check with v19 and it is working fine.
