Conflict with Autodesk Vault

Hello,
I’m checking in to see if there’s a known issue with running Zoo on the same server as is Vault (Autodesk Data management software)?

I have a Windows 7 PC running primarily as our local Vault server. I just installed Zoo to run on this box today. Everything runs well from the Rhino side of the fence.
However, running Zoo kicks us off the server for Vault.
If I Stop the Zoo service, Vault becomes instantly available.

I then set up the Port 80 rule, and still have the same issue.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I don’t know about Autodesk Vault but it sounds like maybe it’s trying to use port 80.

Here’s a link to the Zoo Diagnostic Utility.
It can help you test all of the details about communication with the Zoo.
Load up Vault and run the tool to see if it is using port 80.
If it is, you’ll need to use a different computer for Zoo or maybe Vault can be configured to use a different port.
Zoo 5 is hardcoded to port 80 and can not be changed.

Good luck

Hi John,
Thanks for quick reply!
I did as you said, I do not see that Vault is utilizing Port 80. Attached is the report.

I’m unsure about the last report - I assume that’s saying that Rhino is not open to handshake.

Maybe @dale will know what to try next.

Autodesk Vault uses TCP Port 80.

So does the Zoo. We suggest you find another system, that isn’t using TCP Port 80, to host the Zoo service.

OK thanks guys! Will do.
