+= Archon cannot be contacted =
 One of the most common reasons for being unable to contact the Archon or register a USAM is the WebDAV Publishing module, which may be preinstalled on the IIS server. This module interferes with the requests sent by the Archon, preventing certain methods from executing correctly. You can verify whether WebDAV is installed by checking the Server Manager on the IIS machine.
