SN,
 
I don't think your problem here is related necessarily to the fact that you 
have Internet Scanner SP2 installed so much as your basic configuration between 
Internet Scanner and SiteProtector is altered.  I think the fact that when you 
went back to the previous version and the behavior was the same somewhat 
substantiates that.
 
When you did the upgrade from the previous version to SP2, did you leave the 
sensor registered in SiteProtector?  Although this *should* not be a big deal, 
the installation of SP2 states that all sensors managed by SP should be 
unregistered first.  I'm not sure if this is the crux of your problem yet, but 
it's good form.
 
The relationship between any Internet Scanner sensor and SiteProtector to the 
Event Collector hinges on the proper management of the authentication keys once 
the event collector is up.  If you made any changes to your logon account that 
would make the credentials you first used to hook up to SP change, there may be 
some problems there.  You may want to check those credentials and make sure 
that there is no domain/workgroup problems or other general problems with the 
authentication keys the Internet Scanner sensors are trying to now use to 
connect to the Event Collector.  That's why unmanaging (unregistering) before 
the upgrade can be a good way to avoid problems.
 
There may be something in general amiss with your event collector, as the 
sensor typically has nothing to do with whether that is online or not.  I would 
check on that if I were you and first figure out why the event collector is not 
coming up (independantly) and then tackle the attachment of sensors to it.
 
1.  Get the event collector online
2.  Make sure all Internet Scanner sensors are unmanaged
3.  Attempt to re-register to SiteProtector after upgrading the Internet 
Scanner sensor to SP2

Wth? I just installed Internet Scanner SP2, and now my
sensor shows "Event Collector Offline". I can't get it
back online! I even went back to 7.0, same error! Here
are some other errors:

"(Scanner_1) - OnError from 10.1.1.2(SiteProtector
server): The credentials (name, public key) announced
by the peer during session authentication conflict
with those configured for this session. 
[ID=0xc7200005]"

And on SiteProtector server: 
"(EventCollector_ISS) - Error trying to connect to
Scanner_1@10.1.1.1 event source: The session has been
closed by the peer. [ID=0x47200401]"

Anyone else rrecently upgrade scanner?

THX!

Cheese!
