My Scripts and Tips » GNS3 http://www.tipsandscripts.net Various things I've found useful in my travels Mon, 09 Aug 2010 09:23:50 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 GNS3 and Vista 64bit http://www.tipsandscripts.net/archives/23 http://www.tipsandscripts.net/archives/23#comments Tue, 14 Oct 2008 05:19:08 +0000 admin http://www.tipsandscripts.net/?p=23 GNS3 installs on the 64 bit version of Windows Vista without any errors. However, when you try to test Dynamips you may get the error “Failed to start”. If you try to create a router you may get the error “Can’t start dynamips on port 7200″.

There are two things you may have to do:

  • By default, GNS installs in the directory C:\Program Files(x86)\GNS3 directory. GNS3 installs Dynamips below that in C:\Program Files(x86)\GNS3\Dynamips. However, GNS3 is configured by default to look for Dynamips under C:\Program Files\GNS3\Dynamips. You will need to update the path to the correct location (Under Edit, Preferences, Dynamips).
  • Check that you have the correct file system permissions to the above directories.
