Comments on: Port Conflicts between PRTG Network Monitor and VMware vCenter http://www.modelcar.hk/?p=3060 My Die-Cast Collection & Interests Thu, 08 Jan 2026 15:35:11 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Houston http://www.modelcar.hk/?p=3060&cpage=1#comment-12305 Houston Mon, 06 Oct 2014 21:54:49 +0000 http://www.modelcar.hk/?p=3060#comment-12305 Thanks for this info. I knew it was PRTG but just couldn't fathom why. We had just moved PRTG to our physical Vcenter server and it appeared to work fine, then after a restart things began failing. Obviously due to the port conflict. I've done as suggested here, setting the service dependencies, that appears to be the way to go. Thanks! Thanks for this info.

Go to Registry, under Services, then for those two PRTG services, simply add vpxd vctomcat to DependOnService. So the next time I restart the server, PRTG will always run after vpxd and vctomcat loaded. Finally please make sure the service for both PRTG is set to "Delayed Start" as well as for both vpxd vctomcat services. Hope this helps.

Set the services to start manually as AH says, have them start in the proper order via the script. Another issue we had with PRTG is that after uninstall of the app it left the services on the server, we had to delete them manually. Use the local group policy to run a machine start-up script.

But I don't where to set. Method 2: Set the 2 services manually startup. Write a script to start this 2 services one after another. Place the script at startup which will auto run when server start up. Method 1:
