Connect to Server error

This appears to be a simple yet baffling problem...
I have various AFP shares nested directly off the root volume, setup to allow guest access and then locked down with ACLs.
Regardless of what user or group is added to the ACL list with Read permissions, I can't mount that share point using "connect to server". It throws the error "Connection Failed...There was an error connecting to server <servername>. Check the server name or IP and try again.
If I only use the servername (ie. afp://servername) then I can get a list of share points and click on them to mount them no problem.
How can I allow users to directly mount individual share points without having to bring up the full list of share points? Better yet, why does this behaviour occur in the first place?
Thanks

system.log has lines like:
server AplleFileServer[710]: received message with invalid client_id 2534
and late comes out with:
server servermgrd[39641]: PAM: Unable to authenticate.
server emond[97]: Host at 127.0.0.1 will be blocked for at least 15 minutes
that repeats several times.
in secure.log I can't tell if previous attempts are there, but I tried again after making note of time stamp and nothing is added to it for almost an hour.

  • "Cannot connect to server" error when setting up MAMP local server in Dreamweaver cc 2014

    I am trying to set up my Wordpress 4.1 site with MAMP 3.0.7.3 in Dreamweaver cc 2014, but I am getting a "Cannot connect to server" error when trying to view the site live. The site works fine on the localhost:8888. I am using OS X Yosemite and PHP 5.6.2. Below are screenshots of my Dreamweaver settings. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Subhadeep!
    Think I'm getting closer (Lol). I did as you suggested and changed the web url to http://localhost:8888/Documents/projects/whoknew/. As you suggested I moved the local site to the Documents folder under the sub-folder projects. It is connecting to the server, but now I am getting the requested url cannot be found on the server. Below are screenshots of my current settings.

  • "Can't connect to server" Error

    I'm using a 24" iMac running 10.6.7 and I keep getting a "can't connect to server" error with Safari for certain websites. While I could have posted this topic under the Safari section, the problem is not Safari. I tested other web browsers on my iMac (Firefox and IE) and still got an error. I did all the trouble shooting like: empty cache, reset safari, cookies, proxies, /index.html. Now, I was thinking it could be my router, but I am able to access those websites through my iPhone and my iPhone is connected to my wireless router. So I figured the problem is with my iMac settings.

  • Webex Connect "An unknown error ocurred connecting the server" Error Message

    Hi,
    We have the latest Cisco Webex Connect Clients (7.1.1 Build 16597) in use in our company. With no obvious reason one of our employees now can't connect to Webex Connect getting the Error Message "An unknown error ocurred while connecting to the server." We tried to close and re open the client and to re-enter the password, both with no succes. Using another Jabber/XMPP capable IM Client works but not using Cisco Webex Connect.
    Can anyone help?
    Cheers,
    Patrick

    You may face this issue if your IE is working in offline mode.
    To resolve:
    Try going to google.com on internet explorer.
    Click on connect when prompted.
    Once google.com opens fine then try logging in to the WebEx Connect again.
    It should work now.

  • CCM.LOG Showing Errors Connecting to Server (Error 5 - Access Denied) to \\\admin$ Share

    Hi All!
    We are encountering what I think would be a normal error in most cases if a client is unavailable or offline.  During client push, we are receiving errors connecting to a NULL value in the log (\\\admin$) as opposed to an actual client:
    Under normal circumstances, the log should read as follows:
     Attempting to connect to administrative share
    \\<machine_name>\admin$ using <Client Push Account>.
    What we are running into is a repeating error (with some processed CCR records in between) that shows as follows:

    We have Three Domains (Domain1, Domain2, and Domain3) with service accounts specified in the Client Push Installation Client properties. 
    I don't know if there is an entry (or entries) in the SCCM database that are NULL or blank that is generating these errors. 
    \\\admin$ indicates, to me, that there is a missing machine name that should follow the two \\ and before the \admin$.  Obviously we aren't going to be able to connect to a machine with no name (hence the Failed to Connect to Server.  Error
    5). 
    Is there a way to clean the database of these empty records and fix this recurring error?  It repeats every 15 minutes.
    Thank you!

    Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up.
    I would review the CM07 console to see if there are any device without a netbios name. It will be these device that are cause you problems.

  • How to resolve on my iPad: Unable to connect to server error when trying to log into Game Center?

    When I try to log into the game center, i get an error message that says: unable to connect to server due to an error communicating with the server.
    I have logged off iTune and any other app I was logged in, I have done a hard reset of my iPad, I have reset my modem, but nothing had any impact and I am now frozen out of my game center.
    Anybody has an idea of how to resolve this?
    Thanks,

    1) May be there is a mismatch with the jar file name and the filename in the jad properties ( happens only if you rename the jar file)
    2) Check hollywood jad properties and the ringtone jad properties. May be the complete url is required for the jar file.
    3) If you are using any restricted APIs in your midlet, then make sure your jad properties has the required permissions.

  • Software Update can't connect to server -- error

    I have Tiger 10.4.7 on a 600mH white G3 dual USB iBook. When I try to use the SoftwareUpdate function off the Apple Menu to check for any updates to Tiger, the "checking for new software" window starts up all right but immediately the error message window appears with "Software Update can't connect to the update server."
    I'm otherwise connected to the internet all right and everything is working. I tried trashing the com.apple.softwareupdate.plist file from the Library/Preferences and the user/Library/Preference/ and restarting, but this didn't do it either.
    I've had this problem before and it has "become" fixed, but I don't know exactly what sequence does it. Any help, please?

    No, I didn't try creating a new user, in part because once before doing that only made things more complicated and didn't solve any problems.
    Software Update simply started working again. No idea why.
    However, even after several days, Safari is still reporting that it cannot connect to the server for any URL put in. I've restarted Safari, reset Safari, manually emptied all caches, removed cookies. All very odd!

  • SQL Server Express 2008 R2 - Connect to Server Error

    I have recently downloaded and installed SQL Server 2008 R2 on a new laptop (Windows 7).  The install completed successfully and I encountered no issues.  However, when I start SQL Server Management Studio, I am unable to connect to my server instance.
     I receive the following error:
    "Cannot connect to DWHS (my server name)"  "A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.  The server was not found or was not accessible.  Verify that the instance name is correct and
    that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.
    Did I incorrectly setup some of the settings regarding how the instance is configured when I installed?  Any help would be appreciated.

    are you giving the right server name ?check wether sql services are running and make sure that you are giving correct name . I hope you have installed sql server database engine .
    How to find server name:
     If the instance of SQL Server is a default instance (the instance name is MSSQLSERVER), the server name is
    Computer. Or if it is a named instance, the server name is ComputerName\InstanceName. You can find the instance name via SQL Server Configuration Manager:
    Open SQL Server Configuration Manager from Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft SQL Server 2008 -> Configuration Tools, click SQL
    Server Services in the SQL Server Configuration Manager, in the right pane, you can find SQL Server (InstanceName).
    CompterName and InstanceName are placeholders which represent the your computer name and the instance name of the SQL Server instance.

  • Unable to connect to Server  Error in Essbase 11.1.2

    Hi,
    We are working on Essbase 11.1.2.2. Our applications are in Production and suddenly the  some of the BSO Application are down. We tried to re start the applications but not restarted. So  we restarted the Essbase Hyperion Services in the Server.  Later after bringing the server online when we try to connect to the server we are getting the following Issue..
    Error: 103: Unexpected Essbase error 1030818

    But usually when we restart the services the server will be online and the applications will be started but now its showing above error. Can any one guide us on this. The server and port are correct but still we are facing this Issue.

    1.Check if your backend database or schema are running & try to connect your database or schema with the user id and password which is being for configuration
    2.Stop the essbase server
    3.Restart the essbase server
    4.Go to Task manager then see whether essbase.exe appear.
    5.if so then try to login into essbase server with your user id and password
    6.or else check  if the oracle process manager is getting starting and  for the below logs
    For eg
    d:\oracle\Middleware\user_projects\diagnostics\logs\OPMN\opmn\console~Essbase1~EssbaseAgent~AGENT~1.log
