Connecting to SMD server failed

Hello folks,
We installed a java add-in on a machine running ECC 6.0. The installation went fine and we could log-in to the portal using the webbrowser. After that we tried to upgrade all components from SP14 to SP17. But when the JSPM tried to restart the J2EE-Engine, the SMD didn't come up again and stayed in status "Starting processes". We could fix this be reinstalling the SMD-Agent, but now our main instance tells us in the MMC that "J2EE status info unavailable". I can't reach the portal using the webbrowser as well as I can't login using visual administrator.
In the SMDSystem.x.log I just get following lines over and over again:
Mar 25, 2009 5:59:27 PM [Thread[SMDAgent connection thread,5,main]] Info       [p4://saphcx:59804] Waiting for connection ...

DMS-200 doesn't play uploaded videos: "Connection to video server failed"

Hello, everybody!
I have CISCO DMS-200 deployed. I have console and an http access, I can manage options, I can upload videos, but I can't play them in web-browser. The device was bought 6 months ago and deployment was done by 3rd party. But the video playing over browser didn't work ever.
There is no proxy between PC and DMS, I have all codecs installed on PC, I've checked FireFox, IE, Chrome...
When I try to start video playing, the following message appears: "Connection to video server failed". (See screenshot).
I have some ideas about the reasons.
First, may be I need an additional license for Player at DMS-200 side? Because in Digital Media Players section I have "This feature is not licensed".
(See screenshot).
Second, may be there are problems with File Hosting Locations? I have several error messages like "URL test failed" in the appropriate section (Please, see screenshots).
So, please, share you ideas about the issue! There is a few information about the problem, I can't find anything. Are there any ways to turn on debug at DMS-200 side?
I've added seller's specification and pics.
Please, help!
Many thanks in advance!!!

I've added licenses are currently at DMM.

I am having a problem accessing my Yahoo email account. It keeps saying, cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed. Then I put my email in settings and it works but this happens constantly. Anyone having this problem?

My Yahoo email asks me daily for my email password or says the connection to the server failed. Is anyone having this problem currently? I noticed old messages in chat mentioned the same problem. I get into my Yahoo email fine on my desktop computer for several weeks without re entering a password. But the IPad does not seem to be connecting daily with Yahoo without putting a password in again.

So, I didn't change anything and now it is working better. I still get the odd error though.
I have a feeling this has something to do with the SSL update Apple released and it was their server side.

I keep getting an error pop-up when I try to access my email. The pop-up says Cannot Get Mail The connection to the server failed. I get this pop-up on both my iPhone 5 and my iPad. I can still access my email, but the pop-up is real annoying.

Hi StuNYC,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices? Take a look at the article below, it provides suggestions that will resolve most issues that cause an alert like that to appear in when starting the Mail app.

I have been receiving the message ' Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed' but I am connected to WIFI

I have been receiving the message ' Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed' but I am connected to WIFI. I have also been receiving 'Cannot send mail, an error occurred while delivering this message.

Hmm, that's odd JeanEB. The error message referts to the connection to your email server not to cellular data or connection to wi-fi. Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Select your account and type in your password again. If this doesn't resolve it, delete/re-add the email account.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Connection with license server failed

Hi, I am having problem connecting with my license server when I am using the DI Server (webservice).
Error encountered:
Error env:Receiver 100000001 Connection with license server failed.
Does anyone know what is the best practice for this configuration? Thanks.
Regards,
Rodmann

Hi Alvin,
I am having the same problem on one of my development machine. I have installed DI Server and Server Tools on it.
The license manager is working fine.
But when I try to connect to the company object in a web application it just throws the same exception
Error:Receiver 100000001 Connection with license server failed.
To test the port 30000 i changed it to any thing like 1234 and it gave me message "Failed to connect to license server", changing it back to 30000 and connect brings in all the hardware/license keys etc.
Kindly help what you did in your case to get rid of this problem.
Experts you support in this regard will be highly appreciated.

RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION: Connect to message server failed

Hi,
I think this is the most common error that one can face and have seen quite a few threads in the forum. Still, i couldn't resolve my problem.
I am getting the following error when i tried to connect to SAP using SAP JCO connector with load balancing.
(102) RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION: Connect to message server failed
Connect_PM MSHOST=sapserver, R3NAME=D11, GROUP=Group1
LOCATION    CPIC (TCP/IP) on local host
ERROR       partner not reached (host sapserver, service sapmsD11)
TIME        Wed Jun 24 16:05:49 2009
I added the service sapmsD11 in the services file of my client as well as in R/3 server.
I got the above error when i tried to connect using load balancing. Without load balancing, i was able to connect to R/3 server successfully. Can any one tell how to figure out the message server host name ?
Can the application server host name and message server host name be same ?
PS: I am able to ping my R/3 server from my client.
Thanks,
Prasad.

Hi,
Check that you have configured properly using the below document. And check the message server of R/3 is configured properly in the SLD.

Connect to B1i server failed - HTTP/1.1 404 not found

Hi All,
I currently have B1 8.8 PL14 installed and in the process of installing B1i when I get to Step 3/5: Configure B1i Parameters and select Test Connection I get the error message 'Connect to B1i server failed - HTTP/1.1 404 not found'. I have followed. I have undertaken the installation as per the recorded session by Benno Eberte and regrettably I cannot set a successful connection.
Can anyone assist?
Best regards
Earl

Hello,
personally I think that in step 3/5 the connection via JCO is tested. Please, check the following
Can you connect to your B1i System and have a look for the SLD, there should be a system that points to your company database. If there is a system definition that points to B1if then go further. Check the B1if connection, please take the B1DI connection test, is there a message like
com.sap.b1i.adapter.dia.exception.ConnectionFailedException: Connect to Business One failed.
(-8012) Company version mismatch
{b1Server=..., company=B1if, licenseServer=..., dbType=..., dbUser=..., userName=...}
In case this message comes up and you see B1if then the JCO configuration went wrong and that part is defined in the beginning of the installation.
Hope it helps
Kind Regards

HT2480 Ipad mini - exchange email stopped working randomly Error: "Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed."

I got an iPad mini over Christmas and have had no issues setting up/managing my email until yesterday. I've had my Exchange email working for almost a month, and yesterday I stopped getting emails and getting the error: "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed."
I tried resetting the device (multiple times) and deleting and recreating the Exchange account (multiple times). This is getting annoying because it worked fine up until yesterday. I'm not aware of any updates to the device, or any changes that have occurred since yesterday.

Due to a screen issue, I had my iPhone 5 replaced two days ago. I repeated deleted the mail account and kept adding it but this did not make any difference. When I attempted to setup the new phone with my Google (Gmail via exchange active sync) accounts I was receiving this same "Cannot Get Mail" error. From what I was able to gather, this problem should be affecting Gmail accounts set up via Exchange. When originally purchasing the phone I was assisted and directed to set up my Gmail account through Exchange because it had the ability to use "ActiveSync" and push not only mail and calendars, but all of my contacts as well. I found this article regarding the subject.
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2413283,00.asp
What it came down to was having to delete my Gmail via Exchange account and separate it into two different accounts, a regular gmail account for my mail and a CardDAV account for my contacts.
Here is what I did. Google is changing their system and for new registrars Exchange ActiveSync will not work so you will be unable to register your account via Exchange and have your mail, calenders, and contacts all pushed together. I find this change really annoying. If you are having problems accessing your contacts after deleting the mail account, like I was, here is the work around.
To circumvent this issue go to Setting > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDAV Account: Under server ender google.com, then your email user name and password, then click next to verify the information.
I hope this helps.

Roundcube: connection to storage server failed

I have done a clean install of my server (10.8.2 and 2.2.1) and have reinstalled Rouncube that was working fine on the old server (10.8.2 and 2.1.1).
However when I connect to the website I get the error "Connection to storage server failed"
I think it is failing to connect to the IMAP server but I cannot find anything in the Console or Server logs when this happens. Any ideas on how to debug?
I am pretty sure I have followed the identical installation path as before - and have checked and rechecked but there are no obvious differences in the config files.

Exchange Server Error - The connection to the server failed

Since two days ago, one of my GMAIL accounts on my iPhone stopped receiving emails. I use Exchange Server, and have been getting the following message: Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed.
I have tried multiple things as stated over the forum(s) but nothing seems to be working. This is only affecting one account (the most important one!), while the remaining two GMAIL accounts on the same device are working fine.
Can someone tell me how to fix this problem and continue to receive emails using exchange server?
Thanks

OK - 5 of us at work, all with iPhone 5's, all 32Gb. 2 of us can sign into Gmail using the Exchange Server with no problems, the other 3 (including me) cannot get emails to push. When set to push it comes up with "cannot get mail the connection to the server failed". (If set to Fetch then it does work) So we deleted all our accounts and the two that could connect with push tried it on our phones that wouldn't to see if it was a Gmail thing but they couldn't connect either - same message. I tried on on of the other phones and hey presto, it works! We are all running the same OS (iOS6.1.2) So it has to be device specific - what is going on here???? !!! Really, really hacking me off now - wish I'd never bought the bloody thing. Rapidly going off Apple...
