just started getting this error message on 2600 router

I did a write erase then a reload and my router has started producing this message

*Mar 1 00:14:49.417: %SYS-4-CONFIG_RESOLVE_FAILURE: System config parse from (tftp://255.255.255.255/cisconet.cfg) failed

any ideas

try the boot system flash command. It looks as if it is trying to boot from a tftp. Also make sure your register is at 2102.

Try the no service config command. It looks like your router id trying to autoload the config.

tried the no service config (global) command, still getting the same error

is there a boot command I can use?

networker050184

Did you reload the router after issuing the no service config command???

aueddonline

problem solved

when i was copying the show ver I by mistake pated it back into the command line, and the problem has gone, not sure if those events are related but it's sorted it

aueddonline

I since reloaded the router and the problem has gone,

networker050184

Hmmmmm I don't think they are related, but at least your issue is fixed!

aueddonline

no i think your right, could have been that, must ahve been that command, cheers guys

no service config - what's the command do, stop all serivces the router is trying to access?

any ideas

that is because you tried to start autoconfiguration after write/erase initialization

just answer no when prompted.

HTH.

The service config command is used when you are auto loading the configuration from a remote server. You would also specify what the file name and location is.

type a command sh flash, and configure boot option with a command boot system flash:<ios>
