NCache cannot add new local caches / existing local caches through NCache Explorer

Question

When I tried to add new local caches through NCache Explore in Visual Studio Pro 2013 / 2015, after I input IP address and cache name , the NCache Explore prompt a error message as below :

Error: Alachisoft.NCache.Runtime.Exceptions.ManagementException 
at Alachisoft.NCache.Management.RPC.RemoteCacheServer.ExecuteCommandOnCacehServer(ManagementCommand command)
at Alachisoft.NCache.Management.RPC.RemoteCacheServer.IsCacheRegistered(String cacheId)
at Alachisoft.IntegCommonMVC.Controllers.CommonControl.CommonController.CheckCacheAvailability(String serverNode, String cacheId, Int32 serverPort)

Does anyone know how to add the local cache in NCache Explore correctly ?

I don't think NCACHE Explorer is supported with the open source version. Use the commands from the installationfolder/bin/tools to manage your caches — Basit Anwer, Dec 29 '15 at 07:26

NCache Explore in Visual Studio Pro 2013 / 2015 is not supported Officially in the open source version.

You can manage it from console with the following steps.

Open CMD
cd to installation folder; mine is `C:\Program Files\NCache\
cd to bin\tools`
First check if service is up and running by executing listcaches.exe
If all is fine then simply do startcache.exe mycache
If not then check if your IP is correct or not in
- config/client.ncconf
- config/config.ncconf
- bin/service/Alachisoft.NCache.Service.exe.config

Thanks you very much. Could I using command line to control another machine's cache stop/ start ? – John Jin Dec 31 '15 at 07:10

Yes you can: `startcache.exe mycache /s 20.200.20.96` . For more information do `startcache.exe /? ` – Basit Anwer Dec 31 '15 at 07:14

When I try to execute iistcaches , I get an error which says MachineName value is invalid. Any ideas what is this about ? – The Mitra Boy May 18 '16 at 09:04
Try giving your IP `listcache.exe /s 192.168.1.100` – Basit Anwer May 19 '16 at 05:36
@TheMitraBoy Your machine name might be bounded to some other IP. If you do not provide an IP NCache picks the first one and tries to work with it. – Basit Anwer May 19 '16 at 05:37

@BasitAnwer Thanks a lot. I ended up doing it from NCache manager – The Mitra Boy May 26 '16 at 13:18
