[SOLVED]DHCP PROBLEM

[Ardobras]

Ok Guys, I´m 17 and from Germany, so please have mercy with my english

I have a E-Box Server (v2.0.5) and I can´t start my DHCP Server. It´s horrible, I already tried a lot of solutions from this forum but nothing worked... I have the same problem like already others had. My DHCP-Module is enabled but if I press start, it says "successfully restarted" but if I type
"sudo /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server status" it tells me, "the server is not running" and in the WebUI I can press again "Start" for the same effect.

I made a log, hope it helps:

First things first.
How many networks cards do you have?
Are all of them up and properly configured?
Can you ping them?

[Ardobras]

Ok,
I have two ethnernet cards (eth0 + eth1) eth1 has ha static ip and should be the dhcp server and eth0 is connectet to the fritz!box (router used as modem). Eth1 is working fine, i can ping it and can also use the webserver (the webui is also running over eth1). to eth0 i havent a direct connection....
hope it helps...

Have you defined a DHCP range?
The error about firmware is irrelevat. It is related to botp but is not causing dhcp to fail starting.

[Ardobras]

I haven´t define a range but it shows me that the current range is 192.168.52.1 - 192.168.52.254 (the static ip of eth1 is 192.168.52.11)

This is the available range acording to your netmask.
Press add and define your range.
DHCP shoult start then.
