Troubleshooting

This section provides some troubleshooting tips for problems that prerequisite tests detect. Prerequisite tests can generate warnings or failure notices. If you receive a warning, you can correct the problem immediately or wait until the installation or upgrade software runs. You must correct a failure before you can continue. Most of the troubleshooting topics describe prerequisite failures.

Note: Prerequisite tests often rely on general indicators to identify problems. Passing a prerequisite test is not a guarantee that everything is configured properly. It is important to meet all of the requirements and complete the configuration tasks that are described in this guide.
