Error executing: UPDATEVERSIONPATCH
The administration server could not be contacted
Cause
Resolution
1. The error message itself may be enough to identify the issue
2. A log file showing a history of configtool commands may be reviewed; this log file is located at <INSTALLDIR>\log\configtoolhistory.log
3. Debugging may be enabled on configtool for expanded debugging. To enable debugging, modify the <INSTALLDIR>\bin\setenv.cmd file by finding the line (very near the end):
set LOG4J_CONFIG=file:%PROPERTIES_DIR%\DisableAuditLogConfig.properties
and replace it with the following:
set LOG4J_CONFIG=file:%PROPERTIES_DIR%\DebugAuditLogConfig.xml
This will now generate debug output in <INSTALLDIR>\log\debug.log
NOTE: Remember to change the setenv.cmd file back after you have finished debugging
