Firefox periodically shows "server not found" message for Verizon/Yahoo email. Often self corrects in 5 to 10 minutes ?

System is Windows VISTA. While on Verizon/Yahoo mail Firefox will lose the connection and shoe a "server not found" message. Explorer will connect with no problem to the email server. The problem self corrects with in 5 or 10 minutes but this may happen 5 or 6 time in a day.
Is this a Firefox problem with proxy access. Settings appear to be the same.

i forgot to mention , that when i striped this machine back down to 10.3.7 and before i re built i did do a hardware check with the original install Disks [3] and every thing came back clean.
the weird ness with the colors on window, if i pass a app like text edit over the area , the color will not cover the app but stay in the background.
when i first saw this color thing i had the preference pane out and was moving it around on screen and the colors were bleeding off of the preference pane onto the screen.
if you have any idea as to what is going on here let me know.
thank you

Firefox (& Safari) open incorrect (undesirable!) website or I get a 'server not found' message.

Firefox (& Safari) redirect both Google searches and web addresses to an undesirable Chinese website (www.5542.com). They have both become very slow and often give a 'Server not found' message when accessing various sites. I believe it could be malware(?) or similar. I've tried to block the unwanted site but it keeps on appearing. I'm running two macs and it's happening on both of them. I'm not especially experienced with web jargon etc. so please speak slowly with any instructions! Thanks for your help. Andy
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== 3 - 4 weeks ago

Thanks for your help Moses but these Malware removal links are for Windows and I'm on Mac OS 10.4.9 on the laptop and 10.5.6 on the main machine.
One of the problems is that I can't do too much Googling for help before I run into the www.5542.com or 'Can't find the server' problems. Any more suggestions or other useful forums I could try?

Constantly keep getting error 404, server not found

Very frequently I keep getting the error message 404, server not found. This problem mainly comes up after I have been on the computer for a while, and I leave the web site that I'm viewing on for some time. I then return to the computer some time later, and when I try to refresh the page to update the info on the page (example: a weather site or yahoo stock market info) I keep getting, 404 server not found. When I try the option: try again, it does nothing to solve the constant problem. The only way I can get back to the web site and see updated info is to start firefox in safe mode. And, that does solve the problem. But why does this problem keep constantly occurring. And, why do I have to constantly have to restart firefox in safe mode to get going again. It would seem firefox should recognize this issue and solve it. I'm using what I believe to be the latest version, 15. Can someone shed some light on this issue? I did not have this problem with my older computer and an old version of firefox, version 3.6. But, since getting a new computer and using a new version of firefox, version 15, this problem constantly appears. Can some one help? Thank you.

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

No internet, "PPPoE Server Not Found" message. Same problem with both old and new modems.

Help please!
My internet connection with my old Westell 6100 modem was working fine, then quit all of the sudden and would not restart. The DSL and Data lights on the Westell modem were both green. The Internet light alternated between red and off.
I tried every troubleshooting thing I could think of:
Powering down and re-starting the modem and computer.
Resetting the modem.
Checking all of the wire and jack connections.
I plugged my computer ethernet cable straight into the modem, bypassing my router.
I tried both Windows and Mac computers.
I plugged the modem directly into the network interface on the outside of my house to bypass all of my house wiring.
I checked all my phone jacks with a telephone tester to make sure both phone lines were working and not reverse-wired.
I made sure I did not have a DSL filter installed on the modem line.
Verizon Tech Support did a line test and told me the line was fine but that there might be a problem with either my modem or something at the "central office" (not sure what that means). Verizon also sent me a new router as well -- a D-Link DSL-2750B.
The new D-Link router also does not connect to the internet (same problem). The DSL, Data, and Internet lights are all green on the D-Link. I have the computer directly connected to the modem with a new ethernet cable. I repeated the above troubleshooting steps. I went into the router configuration 192.168.1.1 and ran the modem's "Internet Troubleshooting" tests.
There were two error messages on the router configuration screens:
1."PPPoE Server not found" error message is shown on the summary screen.
2."No internet infrastructure present. Please call your infrastructure provider." is shown in the "internet troubleshooting" test results.
Verizon had me change some settings inside the router configuration -- no dice. Verizon ran another line test. A "Level 2 Tech" took over the call and told me that he thinks that the cause of the problem is that the outside wiring coming to my house is reverse-wired. How can this be true since my DSL worked for 2 years before this, my phone line tester indicates my phone lines are wired the right way, and my router reports "PPPoE Server Not Found?"
Verizon is sending out a repair tech to check the outside wiring but I don't think that is the problem at all.
HELP!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you're getting DSL sync (solid DSL light), this sounds like a case of a bad line card to me. I've seen it happen before where it wasn't an account or route issue to the network.

Firefox opens websites when hard wired to router, but when using wireless I get a server not found message.

Firefox (3.6.10) opens websites when hard wired to router, but when using wireless I get message: SERVER NOT FOUND FIREFOX CAN'T FIND THE SERVER AT SEARCH.AVG.COM. My homepage is http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official. My anti-virus is AVG free 8.5.448. What can cause this?
If Work Offline is checked in Firefox File, I can get to Google search site. When I un-check it I still get the Server Not Found message

Did you check the connection settings?

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

Update -Graph and Pivot Table model.DataControls.dcx of type null not found

Now Solved.
I upgraded to the new Jdeveloper release and the Preview works.
Update
I created a new application and the graphs work ok.
Now, why in my current project won't the graphs work???
Chuck
This just occured today 6/22/09.
When ever I preview a graph or pivot table i receive this message:
oracle.jbo.NoDefException: JBO-25002: Definition model.DataControls.dcx of type null not found
I drop the query on a form as a table and it works fine.
I have used Graphs before, and ahve never recieved this error.
I just remenbered, I was using the previous release of Jdeveloper when I built the graphs.
Probably nothing !!
In the developers manual this message is mentioned:
+29.3 Correcting Simple Oracle ADF Runtime Errors+
Failures of the Oracle ADF Model layer cannot be detected by the JDeveloper
compiler, in part because the page’s data-display and method-execution behavior
relies on the declarative Oracle ADF page definition files. The Oracle ADF Model layer
utilizes those declarative files at runtime to create the objects of the Oracle ADF
binding container.
To go beyond simple schema validation, you will want to routinely run and test your
web pages to ensure that none of the following conditions exists:
+■ The project dependency between the data model project and the user interface+
project is disabled.
By default, the dependency between projects is enabled whenever you create a
web page that accesses a data control in the data model project. However, if the
dependency is disabled and remains disabled when you attempt to run the
application, an internal servlet error will be generated at runtime:
oracle.jbo.NoDefException: JBO-25002: Definition
model.DataControls.dcx of type null not found
To correct the error, double-click the user interface project, and select the
Dependencies node in the dialog. Make sure that the ModelProjectName.jpr
option appears selected in the panel.
I checked and the model.jpr is there.
I re-installed jdeveloper but the same error occurs.
I have no idea on how to proceed.

Well, Shay
I search my entire C drive for datacontrol.dcx and *.dcx and no files found.
I am usiing ADF.
The new application that I created that works in preview does not have this file.
I unstalled jdeveloper, downloaded a new copy, deleted Oracle directory, installed jdeveloper and results are the same.
Is the datacontrol.dcx file the same as the "datacontrol in the Data Controls Folder "?
The datacontrol is present the Data Controls Folder (model.jpr model.appmodule)

Hi, after installing WinXp Service Pack 3 Firefox no longer browses. I get Server not found.

All other computers on my local network connect
and browsers work fine. Ping works on affected machine.
The network connections are all ok and the status of the internet
gateway show traffic in and out. Both windows and norton firewalls
are temporarily disabled but no effect. Any help greatly appreciated

Hi, ping works on any internet IP. Tried alternate pages, same problem.
All other machines on local network
do not have this problem. They have normal access to internet. Both firefox
and ie8 do not work on this machine. I've tried to repair the connection
through windows and IE, but same problem. From the IE diagnostic log a
message 12007 crops up that says limited or no connectivity. I'm beginning
to suspect SP3 overwrote an ethernet driver. It's an old card. But when I
tried to system restore, the message was no changes had been detected.
That was curious since my workgroup name had reverted back to the XP default.
I fixed that problem so my lan file and printer sharing all work ok.

I was forced to update windows and restart my computer, now my video player will not play how do i fix this?

on my cable provider website I often watch tv series. I was doing so as normal today and then had to leave the computer to go do something else. When I came back the computer had gone to sleep so I started back up and hit resume play and the video crashed after a few seconds. This has happened before so I restarted the video which as always worked. Didnt work this time so I tried to restart the computer. The restart ran some windows updates and now I am unable to play the same videos I was playing earlier today. The video just keeps saying it is loading or buffering. How do I fix this?

You did not say what programs you are using or how. Go to the web sites
of the '''true owners''' of the video programs and get the full installer.
Do the same for Firefox at '''''Mozilla.com'''''.

I intermittently (usually around computer start up) receive the "Server Not Found" message which usually loads the page when I try again

It doesn't happen with IE for the same pages. It has only begun since I installed v4 and now it is occurring with v5 beta.

Click the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Advanced and in the Network tab, Offline Storage menu, click the "Clear Now" button.

Trying to set up airport extreme with a dsl modem and get DSN server not found message . Get a green light on airport but no internet modem and get

Am attempting to set up a Wi Fi network with an airport extreme. Get most of the way through the setup (have a dsl modem) but get an error that it cannot connect to the internet. Says I have a problem with a DSN server and asks for what appears to be a series of numbers. I had an old airport express working for some time and never saw this.
Decided to upgrade since the express was not powerful enough to work in the whole house.

It is always a good idea when changing out networking hardware to perform a complete power recycle of all of your networking gear.
Please try the following:
Power-down the modem, AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS), and computer(s). Leave them powered-off for at least 10-15 minutes.
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to make sure that is has enough time to initialize.
Power-up (plug into power) the AEBS; wait at least 5-10 minutes or until its status light is a solid green. (Note: The status light may continue to flash amber after this timeframe. This is ok as it may just be letting you know that some additional configuration items need to be taken care of like setting up wireless security.)
Power-up the computer(s).
Computers connected to the AEBS by either wire or wireless should now be able to access the Internet. Please post back your results.

Firefox does not load pages, comes back with server not found

First I thought this was a problem with Firefox 4 beta but now I am having the same issue with 3.6.16
About 70% of the times, Firefox does not open the web page and comes back with "Server not found" message. Interesting thing is it comes back with this message on the first 2 tries and then on the third try for the same link it will display the page. Always, 2 fails and 3rd time it works. Now during the first two times, internet commnection is working and if I try the same URL on IE it works without any issues. This started happening after I tried Firefox 4 beta. 4 is not uninstalled and I am back to 3.6.16. But the issue remains.
I am using Win 7 64 Home Premium, SP1 is not applied yet but all updates are in place.

Well, I'm using Firefox 4.0 and have the same problem. I tried to open my private homepage and my *.net-domain comes back with the "Server not found" message (my *.com-domain loads without any problem - same contents on both websites)
I also tried to open my net-domain in FF portable - without any problems.
Clearing the cache, deleting the cookies etc in FF4 does not help either.
I also had the experience that FF4 does not load CSS5 websites (e.g. deviantart) properly (CSS does not work, website shows simply the html-version, a disgusting look). With FF portable the problem does not exist.
I tried this on different machines (e.g. Windows XP Pro SP3 (office PC), Win7 Pro 64, Win Vista SP2... (home PCs) and there I'm experiencing the same issues with FF4 and various websites.

I get a message when going to any webpage "server not found" or "problem loading page". I click on try again and the page loads fine. This happens on bookmarked pages or manually entered urls. The issues started after I updated Firefox.

Server not found messages and problem loading page message since I updated to the latest version of Firefox. Usually will load the 2nd time after hitting the try again option.
Does not happen with Internet Explorer at all.

FireFox isn't working right on my Mac. Sometimes it won't load at all( says server not found) and sometimes pics and video won't load. If I switch to IE or safari it works fine.

I just got a Mac ( I have always had a pc) and I loaded the most update version of Firefox on it. Many times during the day I will go to a website and it will get a "Server not found" message. I can't refresh the page and fix it, but if I go to IE or Safari the webpage shows up fine. It's not just the webpage cause it is never the same one and it can happen to any site. Also when using Firefox there are many times when I go to a page and not all the pics load or if there is a video on the page the video doesn't load. Again if I then go to IE or safari everything is there and works fine. I have uninstalled and reinstalled FireFox and nothing changed. I cleared my cache, cookie, history and still nothing. I love firefox so this is really frustrating. Any help please.

Did you ever fix this, because I am having the same problem

Why the hell do I keep getting this friggin' error msg"Server not found Firefox can't find the server at .................." ?

Done all suggestions in online help (windows firewall settings, updates, ect.) No problem with IE8 with same webpages.

I'm looking for a solution for the "Server Not Found message I keep getting repeatedly, and this thread does not provide a solution.
However, I had to sign in to say that the "Reset Firefox" feature should never be presented as a first solution to any problem. It's a last resort, not first resort. Doing so is lazy thinking and reckless, especially when dealing with users who may be newbies or inexperienced, or who may not read instructions so carefully and understand the ramifications of wiping their settings and customizations.
There are plenty of articles and Knowledge Base entries that touch upon this user's problem, so why wasn't he directed to those, or at least the invariable "Open in safe Mode", before suggesting such a drastic "solution"?
