Incorrect Network Configuration when Importing exacqVision S-Series Settings

Importing settings from exacqVision Client to an exacqVision S-Series system can cause an incorrect network configuration. This can occur in the following situations:

  1. Exporting settings from exacqVision Client with network adapter bonding configuration (which is the default on S-Series systems).
  2. Importing settings on a system with no bonding, or a system with a bond name that is different from the name in the exported settings.

If this occurs, the following lines will be logged in the server’s log file:

{{{

StreamPI Warning Error enabling interface eth1 –
/etc/network/interfaces:21: interface eth0 declared allow-auto twice
/sbin/ifup: couldn’t read interfaces file “/etc/network/interfaces” .
StreamPI Warning Error enabling interface eth0 –
/etc/network/interfaces:21: interface eth0 declared allow-auto twice
/sbin/ifup: couldn’t read interfaces file “/etc/network/interfaces” .
}}}

Workaround

  1. After importing the settings, manually edit /etc/network/interfaces and remove duplicate adapter entries.
  2. Restart networking with sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart, or restart the system.
