=='''EXERCISE #1'''==
Issue: Web page won't load after setting up the ova file on VMware server.

Cause:

a) They didn't go through the GWAVA install? http://support.gwava.com/documentation/GWAVA/70/html/GWAVA_Installation.htm
* login as user: gwava
* run the following command: sudo /opt/gwavapreinstall.sh

b) If they have gone through the GWAVA install, check to see if there is a /opt/gwava directory that was installed. If there's not, then the install failed. This is usually because they can't get out to get the Ubuntu or Secure Gateway updates. 

#) Check the firewall, or a web filter they might be using, that might be blocking the connection. 
#) The DNS could be failing to resolve the hostnames for these updates as well, you could try using a public DNS server if that is the case.
#) Run the install script again by typing: sudo /opt/gwavapreinstall.sh.complete
Note: Use putty so that you can scroll up to view the errors, if there are any. Such as:
 "svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'https://gwava7updates.gwava.com/update/gwava7/release' 
 svn: E670002: Name or service not known"
#) If a different DNS is needed, while going through the install the second time, enter in a DNS that should resolve these, such as Google's 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.
