      I am getting the error "This machiine cannot be uniquely identified" when browsing the BuildMaster web application. What can I do about this?

        This is caused when BuildMaster cannot determine the CPU ID or MAC address of the server it is installed on. Here is a detailed description: http://inedo.com/support/kb/1005/this-machine-cannot-be-uniquely-identified

        Typically, restarting the server fixes this problem.

        If that still doesn't work, you can also try the following steps to resolve:

        1. Stop the Windows Management Instrumentation service.
        2. Go to the %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem\Repository folder.
        3. Delete all of the files that are in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem\Repository folder.
        4. Restart the computer. The files that were deleted are recreated when the computer restarts. The Windows Management Instrumentation service will start automatically when you restart the computer.
