silverlight not installing web add-on

I have recently installed latest avast endpoint protection suite plus on a companies server (windows server 2008 R2 standard) - when trying to finish the installation I get a browser page telling me to click here to install MS silverlight - after succesful installation message and refresh browser page message says “an add-on for this website failed to run”…

Any ideas please ??

Hi & welcome,
wich browser are you using?
Remember you can use also firefox or Internet Explorer to access to SOA console.
I suggest to you also to remove from the add on the silverlight plugin, download here silverlight http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/, close the browser, install the package downloaded and the reopen the browser.

Hi, I have followed those steps but with no joy, using IE or firefox… still opens to “to view this content please install MS Silverlight” and still says an add-on for this website failed to run…

You’ve installed it with admin rights? Wich version of IE and Firefox are you running?
Check in add-on manager the status of silverlight plugin and enable it if necessary (see attached image)
Remember also you can connect from a client using a browser to SOA console using the correct adress

Giogio, thank you very much, completely forgot about updating my browser, firefox now working fine, IE not working still but no matter now…

once again thank you

You’re welcome
