CMS Could not connect

Dear Experts,
We are facing an issus while connecting to SAP BODS.
Below is the error which I am getting while connecting.
"could not connect CMS 'OCCWEB03'. Specify the correct host and port and check for network issues. (FWM 20030)"
Can anyone help me to diagnose the issue as it was working fine from last 2-3 days but from today its stopped working.
We have BI Platform 4.1 SP2 & BusinessObject Explorer 4.1 SP2 installed on the server whereas SAP Data Services version is 4.2 SP1.
is there is any issue with version ??
Please help us in getting this issue resolved.
Regards,
Vishal Jain

Dear Jawahar,
Thanks for your valuable reply, both BO & DS are installed on the same server. We are able to resolve the issue after re - installation of DS (only repair).

Hi
I've just installed for the third time BOE Premium Server XIR3
Config:
Windows Server 2008
BOXIR3
CMS on MySQL
Tomcat 5.5
I've installed from scratch my server and I could not connect to any application
CCM : the SIA is up and Running, but I could not manage server to see what is launch on the server
> Error : Unable to log on : Could not connect to server SERVER_NAME:6400. Please check that the server name is correct, and that the server is running
Tomcat Configuration: Can't connect to that services too
-->Error : Unable to open the service BOE120Tomcat
CMS / Infoview : Unable to connect too.
--->Error : The server SERVER_NAME:6400 is not found (FWM 01003) null
(Here I translated the error message because I've got the message in french...)
Concerning the MySQL database, it's seems to be correctly installed as I can access the database via MySQL Admin tool.
I've seen lots of similar issue but I never found any resolution or workaround.
So If you have any ideas to help me it would be great as I must make a demo on customer site on monday morning :o(((
Many Thanks

Hello,
Please refer to the following KBAs, may be this can helps you:
http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1884899

And as Sneha said, make sure that the SIA and the CMS don't use the same port number.
I hope that this helps you.

HELP!!! Dreamweaver could not connect you to the remote server"

Hi all,
I have been struck by what seems a common problem with
Dreamweaver/Contribute.
I get this message when trying to “Enable Contribute
compatibility” in Dreamweaver:
“Dreamweaver could not connect you to the remote
server. You cannot perform Contribute administration tasks without
a connection to a remote server. Please fix the remote connection
before continuing.”
I have read that DW will try to write and delete a file to
confirm the connection… When I look at the FTP log of DW, it
confirms that the Temp file has been written and deleted.
So, it has in fact connected to the remote server...!
Things I have done to try to eliminate errors includes:
• Ensure Contribute is not open on the PC.
• Contacted my ISP to ensure that “/” is
the “Host directory”
• Modified the URL in each of the tabs listed below
 Including the Base web address
Below are the settings I have selected in the Site definition
window:
Local info:
Local root folder: v\website\
Links relative to Document:
Http address:
http://www.website.com
Remote Info:
Access FTP
FTP Host www.website.com
Host directory /
Contribute:
Rollback enabled: Currently off
CPS enable Currently off
Site URL:
http://www.website.com
I have spoken to my ISP: www.webcentral.com.au
• They have confirmed that Contribute is used on their
products by other users.
• They also stated that they sell Sharepoint as their
CMS option
What other things can I try to eliminate this problem?

Hi,
Can you please try adding the DNS in your machine where DW
is running?
Steps to add:
1) In the Network Connections, right click Local Area
Connection.
2) Select Properties.
3) Select Internet Protocal (TCP/IP) and click Properties
button.
4) Select the radio button Use the following DNS server
addresses and provide your preferred DNS and Alternate DNS server
addresses.
5) Click Advanced button and select DNS tab in the Advanced
PCT/IP setting dialog.
6) Select the radio button "Append these DNS suffixes (in
Order)" and add the values and also add DNS suffix for this
connection.
7) Click ok and close all the dialogs.
Hope this helps.

ITunes could not connect to the iTunes Store "Error Message"

I recently added iTunes 7.6 to my Windows XP operating system at the same time when I added an *Ion USB Turntable (TTUSB).* I currently have the 80G iPod with the larger video screen. I added in the supplied software of the EZ Vinyl Converter. The software reads from Gracenote and imports into iTunes okay. But now my PC cannot access the iTunes store to buy songs, read the tracks on the discs, or display new album artwork. The diagnostic read the network connectivety test, the CD/DVD drive, and iPod connectivity tests all read okay. I followed the directions on checking the network settings under the Internet Options Tool "Connections" Lan Settings and the Automatic detection and still no dice. All I get is "Make sure your network is active."
Can anybody help out their?

I'm seeing this error on some, but not all, of my Windows XP machines. On my personal development XP box, I see this error if iTunes is closed when I try and access iTunes U via my transfer script or Stanford's.
"iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. The network connection was terminated unexpectedly. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
The errors occured in IE 7 Beta, Firefox 1.5.x, and Firefox 2 Beta. In each case, iTunes U loaded after I clicked the 'ok' button in iTunes. I did notice that in Firefox's case an additional pop-up window appeared that asked whether or not I had iTunes; when I selected that I do have itunes, it transfered me to iTunes but generated the error.
After getting these errors on my Windows XP machine, I tried it on two different lab machines running Windows XP, and didn't get the error message once -- I tried it in IE 6, Firefox 1.0.x and Firefox 1.5.x and they all worked. It even worked with IE 7 Beta and Vista Beta.
Based on this, I think the problem must lie in how Windows registered iTunes, and the handshake just isn't happening properly.

TS3276 Mail Connection Doctor says: "Could not connect to Apple Server's STMP. As Verizon is my ISP is this the right STMP? If yes, how do I connect to Apple Server

When using Mail Connection Doctor two error messages come up with regards to sending and receiving mail from my @mac.com account.
The first one says that my @mac.com account: "Could not connect to this MobileMe IMAP server." How do I fix this? Is this caused by the way I have set my preferences? Is this related to joing iCloud? Or my ISP Verizon the problem?
The second one says in reference to my Apple Server: "Could not connect to this STMP server. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the Account perferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not, deselect the "Use SSL checkbox in the Advanced tabe of Account preferences." This box was not checked. Two days ago these problems did not exist. Again, how do I figure out who to discusses these problems with?
Feedback is most welcome.

iTunes RADIO is not working.
“iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio. People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.
===============================================================
NOTE: no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.

Try this...
Triple click anywhere in the line below to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
cmd /k netsh winsock reset
Press the WinLogoKey+R to open the run dialog, then Ctrl+V to paste, then press enter/return.
You should get something similar to this:
Reboot the computer and the problem should be resolved.
If it doesn't work then perhaps a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes will fix things. See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

HT201269 I used iTunes to backup up my iPhone 4 version 7.0.6 bought a new iPhone 5 and when I connect the new phone I get "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. You do not have permission." How do I fix this issue?

Itunes 11.1.5
Mac OS X 10.7.5
IPhone 4 7.0.6
IPhone 5 7.0.6
Ikeep getting this error when I attach the new phone. After it would not work I did a Icloud back up of my old phone and restored it on the new phone, but I have other music and apps on my Itunes that I would like the option to sync and I like to be able to backup my phone on my Mac. What do I need to do to get the new phone attached back to this itunes?
iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. You do not have permission.

Im having the same problem after installing ios7.1
Checked the usb status and it sees an iphone ( 4s ) attached,
Repaired disc permissions
updated and reset iphone
and itunes
reinstalled mavericks from scratch
phone alert saying " TRUST THIS COMPUTER?"
hit trust
same alert keeps appearing
again and again
itunes keeps wittling on about "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. You do not have permission."
what the actual F*** is going on and can anybody help ??????

Can somebody help me in finding a solution or an explanation to the problem I am currently experiencing as well as others wherein we cannot connect to the iTunes store (iTunes could not connect to the store. An unknown error occurred (0x80096004))?

Can somebody help me in finding a solution or an explanation to the problem I am currently experiencing as well as others wherein we cannot connect to the iTunes store. An error message appears and either says "iTunes could not connect to the store. An unknown error occurred (0x80096004). Make sure your network connection is active and try again" or "iTunes could not connect to the store.Make sure your network connection is active and try again." Despite the fact that my network connection is working quite fine, this problem still persists. I can say that my connection is fine because I can surf the internet and furthermore, I used to connect to the iTunes store just before this incident happened which started from April 17, 2014 and persists until today. I tried to solve the problem by following the troubleshoot procedures given in the support section of this site but it really did not solve the problem. I believe that others are experiencing this situation as well very similar to mine when it comes to the time of occurrence as I have read in the discussions in this site. Even though we have different network connections, operating systems and other specifications, we still experience the same problem, so is there really a problem with our computers or is it with the iTunes? And by the way, my computer works under Windows XP. Thanks a lot. God bless.

Hello Beckieor,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning network issues:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Follow these steps to troubleshoot the above issues:
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.

Hi, I'm using a Mac Pro here. I am trying to connect it with my NAS hard drive. But i could not connect to it because i have an ethernet which connects to the intranet in my company and Air Port for the internet and it could not detect the the ip address after i input the correct address on "Connect to Server" window. Please help! Urgent! Thanks

I did not say it is not possible.
I said if your company networks are monopolizing both ports, you should talk to them about what options are available.
Maybe you can get the company Intranet over wireless if you change some configuration items such as Subnet Mask.
Maybe you can get on the Internet over Ethernet.
You really need to ask them, and do not let them blow you off because you have a Mac. If they balk, ask them how it would be done on a PC (becasue it will be the same on a Mac).

Thank you for your response. I am curious to know why if iTunes does not
answer non technical questions, why I received information when I replied to this
email. Listed below are the previous threads providing technical information.
Furthermore, if this is email is for billing disputes, I would like to have
my Mastercard credited $25.87 for a "gift this purchase/tv show" that I
purchased for my uncle on Christmas Day. I purchased the full first season of Monk.
I previously sent an email requesting credit on approximately January 2,
2006, and failed to receive a response. He never received the gift, or any
instructions about how to download the tv show, and I do not show a credit
appearing on my credit card. I would like to have credit for services not received.
Please credit the following card #XXXX
Thank you.

Thank you for your response. I have tried these methods, AGAIN. None of
them seem to work. I also contact my ISP, AOL. Nothing they advised me to do
worked. Has iTunes performed recent upgrades? Just viewing the discussion
boards, it seems like a lot of people are having problems. Having paid $399
for
the 60GB video ipod, I need more than a generic email telling me what to do,
when I already indicated in previous email that I followed the steps shown in
the
support area, which were the same instructions email to me.

Dear Emily,
Thank you for contacting the iTunes Music Store. Use the steps in the
following article to troubleshoot your connection problem.
I have been unable to connect for more than 24 hours on Windows.
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Music Store for more than a
day—and other customers on our discussion boards aren't experiencing similar
issues—a software or ISP configuration issue may be blocking your access to
the iTunes Music Store.
• Your copy of the iTunes application may be out of date.
• If iTunes is out of date, it will not be able to connect to the
iTunes Music Store. You can download the latest version of iTunes from our
website: ?http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
• You installed a third-party anti-virus or personal firewall
application.
• You will need to configure your software to allow iTunes to access
the Music Store. You can contact the software manufacturer if you have
questions regarding configuration. Click here for more information.
• You upgraded to Windows XP Service Pack 2.
• Windows XP Service Pack 2, by default, enables the Windows Firewall.
As with a third-party firewall, you will need to configure Windows Firewall
to allow iTunes to access the Music Store. Read this document for more
information. If you have further questions about configuring the Windows Firewall,
contact Microsoft's Service Pack 2 hotline at (888) SP2-HELP.
• You upgraded to a high-speed or wireless Internet connection.
• A new DSL or cable modem, or even a router, could be the culprit.
These devices allow your computer to access the Internet at a much higher speed,
or route your connection to multiple computers. However, they can also expose
your computer to hackers. To help prevent this, manufacturers of these
products often install firewalls to prevent hackers and viruses from compromising
your system. Although this layer of protection is beneficial, there are
occasions when a device may determine that the iTunes Music Store is a threat to the
computer. If this is the case, you will need to configure these devices to
allow iTunes to access the Music Store. Contact your ISP or the device
manufacturer if you need help configuring your device.
• You switched to a new ISP.
• If you didn't install new networking hardware, your ISP may be
blocking access to the iTunes Music Store. Let your ISP know about this document
which can help your them configure their servers to allow iTunes Music Store
traffic through.
Sincerely,
The iTunes Music Store team

The error message I am receiving is "iTunes cound not connect to the Music
Store. Network connection was refused. Make sure your network settings are
correct and network connection is active, then try again". I have been unable to
connect to the music store for at least 3-4 days. I have been using iTunes
since last October, successfully. I checked all my network connections & they
are fine. I am able to connect to AOL. I even uninstalled and reinstalled
iTunes several times, all successfully, but I am still encountering a problem.
Thank you.
Emily
Nice, effective customer service. I'm at my wit's end. I field customer service calls, and answer emails at work, and the general responses from the iTunes response library are ridiculous. Especially, after emailing me twice technical support emails, they tell me they do not handle technical support questions...
Any help or suggestions as to how I should respond to the next email is helpful...
I also forgot to mention I have been able to connect to iTunes since October 2005, and have been unable to connect for almost 2 weeks now. And, yes, I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes. I was advised over the phone to upgrade to XP Service Pack 2, but it looks like SP2 has issues. ANd, no, I did not download SP2, because the customer support rep admitted he knew nothing to very little about iTunes.

Emily,
thanks for your posting, it just reflects my experience (although I didn't contact the helpdesk, but after what you wrote I think I can skip that part). I am livin in China and buy from the German MS, worked fine until about a week ago when the download of an album stopped just after 5 songs. I have never been able to connect to the shop ever since.
The interesting thing is, that I get a response from their server in the domain phobos.apple.com (phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/storeFront) which I would interpret that there can't be a problem which they always list (Antivirus, Firewall etc...)
So will there ever be somebody from Apple who is going to give a better explanation how to solve the problem ? Or are there already too many people buying iPods and music ???
