Messages - "A Network Error Occurred" on Google accounts, requires restart

Since upgrading to Yosemite, my iMac has been randomly disconnecting from my Google Jabber accounts (I use two - one for my personal GMail and another for work). In Messages, my status changes to "Offline" for both, and I get the little lightning-bolt icon. Other accounts (AIM, etc.) aren't affected. Clicking that icon on either account gets me the following error:
The weird thing is that while quitting/restarting Messages does nothing (neither does trashing the .plist), restarting the computer fixes it - for a while. This wasn't a problem when running Mavericks or any previous OS.
Thoughts?

Hi,
In Messages > Preferences > Accounts > Google Accounts > Server Setting tab what is the server name listed ?
Mine is talk.google.com
It is using SSL and port 443 (it may read 5223 on yours)
At Google I do not use 2 step Verification but I do have Allow Less Secure apps.
The second is needed as Google have deemed SSL not that secure.
This is accessed on the Google Account Login drop down top right where your name Appear and is then in the Security section.

  • Trying to update to iTunes 10.4.1 and I get a message "A network error occured while attempting to read from the file C:|Windows|Installer|iTunes.msi"  Running WIndows 7 with all updates done.  I  have never had an issue with iTunes updating before.  Anyo

    iTunes has tried to update itself and runs into an error and tells me to manually install.  When I d/l and run the iTunesSetup.exe file I always encounter the following error message...
    "A network error occured while attempting to read from the file C;|Windows|Installer|iTunes.msi" and iTunes does not update to iTunes 10.4.1.
    Anyone know what is creating this error message?  Thanks for the help...

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page): 
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • A network error occured blah, blah, blah

    Itunes prompted me to update to the latest version which, after downloading, failed with the eror message "An network error occured while attempting to read from the file C:\Windows\Installer\QuickTime.msi". I tried again with the same results. I decided to remove Itunes/Quicktime and start afresh but an error occured when trying to do this and the application remained.
    I then ran "msicuu2.exe" as recommended by Apple but that didn't seem to do much either. Decided then to manually delete all Itunes/Quicktime programs/files and cleaned the registry of all evidence of these applications, also deleted temp folder.
    Downloaded latest vers. of ITunes but got the same error message when I tried to install it as I had in the begining. Does anyone have an idea what may be wrong?
    Message was edited by: wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

    No, in fact nothing seemed to appear i.e. nothing was listed, which I thought rather odd at the time as I, like most people, have dozens of applications installed. I did try running it again but the result was the same.
    That's a bit odd ... so the Windows Installer CleanUp window was completely blank?
    There's a screenshot of how it normally appears in the following document (in step 2). (Don't apply the measures in the document at this stage ... the link here is just in order to show you what the CleanUp interface is supposed to look like.)

  • Homepage  - A Network Error Occured While Completing

    IPhoto 5.0.4 (263) When publishing photos to HomePage, the files upload, then the spinning candy cane for about 5 seconds, then the message "A network error occurred while completing the publish of your HomePage." I've been trying this for days and I'm on the phone with AppleCare right now. Told it was a latency issue with Airport, so I should try via ethernet... tried that... didn't work.

    Hi presbus,
    This has been an ongoing problem for many people. some have found solutions but most are still experiencing this problem.
    If you search around in the .Mac Integration iPhoto discussions you might find some more info.
    All I can offer you is a work around that I use.
    You can bypass iPhoto altogether until the situation is resolved. You can manually upload your album to your iDisk.
    Within iPhoto, share/export your album. Choose how you want them named, export size should be 800 x 600.
    You can choose to export to a folder on the desktop, OR you can navigate to your iDisk/Pictures folder (by clicking on your iDisk in the left column of the Export window, then highlighting the Pictures folder...wait till the files show up.
    Now click the button on the bottom left for "new folder" name the folder to the name of your slideshow. Now click "ok"
    Wait till all your files are uploaded to your idisk Pictures folder.
    If you exported to the desktop, then open up your iDisk folder (mount your iDisk), navigate to the Pictures folder and drag your folder of exported photos into the Pictures folder.
    Go to your .Mac homepage.
    Go to "create a page" and choose the album template you want.
    In the next window your Pictures folder will open up. Highlight the folder you just uploaded, and click the "choose" button
    Now you can finish your editing, titles, etc. and you are good to go.

  • Why do I keep getting the message; Network error occurred?

    Whenever I try to send an email. The message in the outbox states the sending failed. When I click on that email, it simply states that, Network error, occurred.
    What is causing this network error?

    Hello,
    Thank for the reply. My zip code is: 19702.
    My browser is the latest Android. Completely stock. I can access the internet. I don't use chrome. 
    I get the message only when I try to send emails from my Verizon email account. I can sometimes receive email but not all the time. I cannot send emails at all once this happens. I can send and receive emails from other email accounts except Verizon (that is why I am using Hotmail).
    If I completely deleted my Verizon account, restart my phone, than add my account back on to the phone, it will work for a couple of emails than I will get the message; send fail. Network error occurred. 
    Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE smartphone

    Hi rebjrbaker,
    I'm guessing that you're trying to log in to the service from within Reader. If that's the case, you may need to update the version of Reader you're using. Choose Help > Check for Updates. You should be using version 11.0.9 (this update was just released on Tuesday, 9/16).

  • MS SQL server is going down frequently(10 days of gap) with exception message: "A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded".

    MS SQL server is going down frequently(10 days of gap) with exception message: "A severe error occurred
    on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded". We are facing this issue for past two month.But funny thing is server will be up automatically with out any service restart manually.  Also if we try to restart the SQL
    server service manually then SQL server will be in a dead lock situation and it will not come up even if we wait for long time. Then we should do a windows server machine restart to
    make the SQL sever up. As a suggestion from Microsoft to fix this kind of similar issue,
    we have installed service pack 3 for SQL Server. But even after we are facing same issue.
    Server Details:
    Server OS: Windows Server 2008 R2
    Two type of database servers are installed on server:
    1. MS SQL Server 2008 R2

    Also Reporting server is configured for the purpose of generating SSRS report from a dot net website.
     NOTE:Immediately after the data retrieval/save, we are closing the connection explicitly by the
    application.
    we have checked the windows event log and below are the details:

    Could anybody can suggest any kind of fix for this issue? Thanks in advance.

    Hi YesYemPee,
    I have tried but still not clear about your issue, I would like you provide more details information about your issue based on below points to better analysis about the issue:
    What action did you do and caused the error "A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded", did you run report on the web application or something else then the error happen?
    If you rendering the report and got the error, please try to provide us more error information in the log files which path like:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\LogFiles
    If it is not the case in step1, Please try to provide SQL Server Error log(SQL Server Logs) and more details information.
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • A network error occurred while trying to communicate with the server.

    Hello All,
    I am getting some new error messages when opening the server app on my Mac Mini server running OS X 10.8.2 and Server 2.2.1. First I get a message that says "A network error occurred while trying to communicate with the server." and then after trying to open some of the service panes, I get additional errors that say "Multiple errors occurred on the server while processing commands." The services don't load and I just see "Error Reading Settings" in the server app.
    I started to get these errors when I added a new website to the server. All the services are working fine but I cannot access them in the server app.
    In console I'm seeing these errors when I try to access various services:
    2/24/13 8:02:12.692 PM Server[956]: Error: The server '10.0.1.150' reported an error while processing a command of type: 'readSettings' in plug-in: 'servermgr_dns'.

    I have already restarted the server and used terminal to stop and start postgres. Any more thoughts on how to repair this?

    Just as I had suspected, the whole GUI crashed because of certificate problems. After two and a half hours with enterprise support, it turns out the com.apple.servermgrd certificate in the server keychain had become corrupt.
    We determined this by typing https://127.0.0.1:311 into Safari and we could see all the server modules and interact with them through the web interface. All the services were working properly as well so we knew that it was just the Server.app GUI that simply couldn't read settings that was causing the problem.
    So, first we closed the server app. Went into /var/servermgrd and deleted all the files from this folder. Then, in Keychain, deleted the com.apple.servermgrd certificate. Did a search for com.apple.servermgrd in Keychain and deleted everything else that came up for it.
    Then restarted the server. Now the server app was able to properly connect to the services in the background and read them properly. This was the jist of the troubleshooting that solved the problem. It also seems like DNS is causing problems because that is the only service that will not read right but is functioning properly in the background.
    I will post an update once Apple figures out what is wrong with DNS. Hope this helps anybody else having these problems.

  • SQL SERVER 2012 Installed to SMB share Error 59 (An unexpected network error occurred)

    I have installed SQL 2012 on a clustered file share. When I try to add space to extend the log file for a database I get the following error
    Msg 5149, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
    MODIFY FILE encountered operating system error 59(An unexpected network error occurred.) while attempting to expand the physical file '\\server\share\path to ldf file.ldf'
    The SQL service is running under a local domain account that does not have administrator rights to the system.  The service account does have full disk and share permissions and the service starts without any problems.  I have applied all the cluster
    hotfixes and all the current Windows Updates.  If I log into the system as the SQL service domain user account I can access the share and have full rights to it.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    The LDF file is 16 GB
    Free space on the drive is 62 GB
    Expansion is set to 10 percent
    I have several instances on this cluster, some are installed to drive letters and others to the clustered file share.  The error only occurs on the SQL 2012 instances that are installed to the clustered file share.
    I installed them to the clustered file share because I am running out of drive letters in the cluster.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page): 
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • The document could not be saved. an unexpected network error occurred

    I have several users on a terminal server that access a PDF from a file server. This PDF has many fillable fields like Name: with an empty text box next to it.
    Sometimes when the users open this PDF everything is missing except the fillable text fields. If they try to save the file they get the error in the subject of this ticket:
    the document could not be saved. an unexpected network error occurred
    Obviously, this sounds like a networking error, but 2 things.
    1) The terminal server and the file server on both virtual servers on the same host, using the same SAN. Very unlikely to have a networking error.
    2) This doesn't happen to every, it seems to be only affecting 3 of about 25 right now, and it is not all the time.
    Any thoughts? I have checked to see if there were any hidden lock files, but that wasn't it. Google-fu turned up nothing.
    Thanks for your help

    Hey jdorimoto,
