Troubleshooting

This page provides an overview of common errors and mistakes that can occur during Insights installation, and potential methods to avoid or remedy them.

Important: Be sure that you have followed the Insights Installation instructions closely.

Installation Logs

The log file most helpful in debugging installation issues can be found in the %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp directory with the name UiPathInsightsInstaller_<xxxx>_CommandExecutor.log.
Enable verbose logging during installation by passing the /L*V parameter along with a target file where the logs are to be written. For example: /L*V log.txt.

Common Errors

Basic Validation Errors

  • Servers must be resolvable between Orchestrator > Insights and Orchestrator > Client > Insights. Ensure that you can:
    • Access Orchestrator from the Insights machine. For example: https://<orchestrator_server>:<port>/.
    • Access Insights from the Orchestrator machine. For example: https://insightsserver:port/app/account/login.
    • Access Insights from the Insights machine.
  • The Insights server must have at least 16GB RAM and 50GB free disk space.
  • The user installing Insights must have administrator rights.
  • For existing or failed installations, make sure there are no Sisense folders located in either the C:\Program Files and C:\ProgramData directories.

Certificate Errors

  • If using self-signed certificated, you must use the FQDN for your server (i.e. insights.corp.uipath.com not insights).
  • The Orchestrator certificate must be placed in the Local Computer Trusted Root store on the Insights machine.
  • If you are encountering errors when trying to change your Insights certificate, make sure to follow the instructions provided in Updating Your Insights Certificate.
  • The Insights certificate must be placed in the Local Computer Trusted Root store on the Orchestrator machine.
    Note: If you are generating a self-signed certificate for Insights manually, please make sure it is marked as exportable with the private key and imported into the Personal store.

  • When importing the certificate, ensure that you selected export the private key option.

Insights AdminTool Errors

  • Ensure you can access Insights and Orchestrator at their respective URLs, and are using valid credentials for the Orchestrator host tenant.

Exception while starting WarmStartCommand(s) : A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)

  • Ensure you are passing the correct tenant name.

Could not start connector

If you specified a custom port number for the Host Servername on the machine where the Insights database is located with a comma, such as sql.uipath.com,1733, this could cause the connector not to start.
  • On the Insights machine:
  1. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Sisense\DataConnectors\JVMContainer\Connectors\UiFrost and open the 'uipath_insights.properties' file.
  2. Find the 'insights.db.conn' property, and check to that the hostname and port are separated by a colon.

    Ex:

    insights.db.conn=jdbc:sqlserver://insightscore.database.windows.net:1433;Database=insights;user=uipathinsights.db.conn=jdbc:sqlserver://insightscore.database.windows.net:1433;Database=insights;user=uipath
If they are not, replace the separator with a ":".
