Get 'server not found' for only one web site, works on other computers

This is a secure site for which I have an account to do business. Get same results in Explorer and on my windows smartphone. Checked and it is not a restricted site in security options.

You're welcome.

They may have changed that recently if it worked in the past.

Flash not displaying correctly for only one web site

In the last 3 or 4 days I seem to have problems with the flash content of one single web site not displaying correctly from my laptop. I have the same problem from both IE (version7.0.5730.11) and from FF (3.5.8). The site works fine from my desktop system so it's not the site specifically. The site (www.transparent.com/wotd/today/spanish.htm) has an embeded flash segment that does not display correctly and thus I can't click on two of the embedded buttons. It also does not display the background pattern for the flash. I'm running flash 10.0.45.2 based upon right clicking from within the embedded flash which takes me to the Adobe page with my version info. The Adobe page seems to display fine.
As far as I know I'm not having problems with another instance of flash - only this site.
Any thoughts on how to diagnose the problem? I've not added any new programs since this website stopped working but do have some background "tune up" programs that run. I'm assuming some settings are out of wack but don't know where to start looking. Any help folks woulc provide would be appreicated.

Well, that is hard to tell. Like I said the website may have updated their technology. Just because it works with the Desktop, doesn't mean there is not a reason that the laptop might not have a problem. You have 2 different systems and
most likely different configurations.
You may want to check Tools and in the add ons for both, look for Shockwave Flash Object...ActiveX Control..Flash10e.ocx should be installed and enabled.
Also for each check C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash Right click the Flash folder and make sure for IE that the files are vs 10.0.45.2 by checking the properties.
If you have the correct Flash files and the correct SWO then, some other cause would be looked at.
It has been my experience to not "assume", but verify:-)
Thanks,

Why do certain of my Firefox windows start getting "Server not found"?

Several times a day, one or more of my many Firefox windows gets into a state where it gets "Server not found" whenever I try to browse to a new URL. Internet Explorer is not affected.
I usually run Firefox with ~4 windows and more than a hundred tabs. The problem sometimes affects only one of those windows. Sometimes I can solve it by closing and then reopening the window. Sometimes I can solve it by closing and then reopening Firefox. Sometimes I can solve it by rebooting.
It's hard to say when exactly this started. The computer is only two weeks old.
I have experimented with the solutions discussed here (played with my firewall, verified that I am not using a proxy server, network.dns.disableIPv6, network.dns.disablePrefetch): http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20cannot%20load%20websites%20but%20other%20programs%20can
Has anyone else seen this? Does anyone have any suggestions?

A possible cause is security software (firewall) 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.

Frequently get 'Server not found', have tried all articles solution, what now?

Frequently get 'server not found' when accessing web sites, no particular websites just randomly all sites, clicking 'try again' always resolves. I am thouroughly sick and tired of this error and no working soloutions! Have tried 'about:config' settings; pipelining, script_run_time, ipv6. Have tried reinstall of Firefox and update of firefox. Have allowed firefox in my firewall which is 'Comodo' and have deleted entry and re-allowed it again. Have tried firefox proxy settings on all choices of settings. These things do not fix the problem. I cannot find anymore information or solutions to try, I have searched everywhere and everything and tried all the things Ive found as mentioned above. What is the problem? Can it be resolved? How can it be fixed?

Error loading only one particular website's images, other computers can view site perfectly fine.

I am trying to view fabric.com. I initially viewed the site fine, then I connected to a wifi network with bad service and none of the photos showed up on that site and others. Now whenever I view the site, the pictures don't come up. I tried clearing cookies and restarting. All other sites work fine and the fabric.com site works on other computers.

Could be your image permissions for the site. If you right-click the page, choose View Page info, and click over to the Permissions tab: is "Load Images" set to block? In that case you can simply check the "Use default" box and that should fix it. (Of course, you'll need to reload the page.)

When I click on Mozilla Firefox I get server not found. When I ask for help I get server not found. Without my intention visual bee is in background.

I recently responded to a prompt to upgrade Mozilla Firefox and started seeing visual bee in background and got lookup for browser safeguard.com.com failed. Can't get into Firefox. My version is 3.6.12. Help requested. Thanks Keith

In Firefox, I keep getting "Server not found" error - CONSTANTLY!

Two days ago I started getting the "server not found" error, off and on, daily. It is happening on both my desktop iMac 10.7, and my Windows 7 laptop. I keep having to hit the "Try Again" butting, and sometimes, several times, before a web site will finally launch. The only two extensions I have on both, are the Adblock Plus and the Last Tab Close Button, both of which, have been installed on said computers for months and months and months.
I went in and changed a setting to the "auto detect proxy setting", hoping that would work, and it did not.
I have Firefox version 21 on both computers, and it seems the problem started shortly after this latest Firefox update, and at the SAME TIME on both computers.
I do not have virus protection on my iMac, nor on my Windows 7 laptop, at the moment, but I have run online software to check for anything, and no issues, so I believe, it is not that which is the issue.
The firewalls on both computers are working fine and no issues there either, I have not changed any firewall settings, on either computer. It couldn't be the firewall, in my opinion, because this annoying error message started happening on BOTH of my computers, at the same time; I work on my iMac in the morning, then switch to my laptop in the afternoon, and same issue continues on both, and started at the same time, on both.
Is there something broken in Firefox from this last update of the browser?
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why both computers are having this issue, at the same time?
I have not tried using I.E. yet on my laptop, I rarely have ever needed to use that browser, and I hate it, so I don't use it.
Any help or suggestions, would be appreciated.

I followed those steps, but clearly some steps are missing. How do you "enable each extension one at a time"? The only choices I see in Safe Mode are "disable" and "remove."
And why is it that every other update to Firefox breaks Firefox? I've had to install add-ons just to be able to use it in Windows 8 with a touchpad.
Now that I think of it, it doesn't even matter any more. After years of Firefox loyalty (even after Firefox users have dropped to 28%), I'm off to download Google Chrome (up to 52%). I'll miss Firefox, but not the on-again, off-again performance.

Firefox 5 gives "Server not found" for all URLs - fresh install of Fedora 15 x86_64

Under a fresh install of Fedora 15 x86_64 on an Intel box, Firefox 5 (firefox.x86_64 5.0-2.fc15) will not display web pages. Internet connection and DNS resolution function correctly. For instance, I can correctly 'ping fedoraproject.org' but giving Firefox the URL 'http://www.fedoraproject.org' reults in a "Server not found" message. What needs to happen to get the URLs to resolve in Firefox?

Changing
SigLevel = Required
to
SigLevel = PackageRequired
in pacman.conf did the trick
No, that was my fault. I updated my release scripts yesterday and the new ones did not create the database signature symlink. I just fixed it about 10 minutes ago.
Change the SigLevel back to Required, otherwise Pacman will not verify the databases. Everything should be working again.
Cheers, upgrading is back to normal (good work on the repo btw)

PDF file not generating for only one Invoice billing document

Hi all,
We have upgraded our system into ECC6.0 from 4.7 version. During our Testing time, we have found the following Bug:
Bug: Not possible to get output in pdf format for only one Invoice type(TR code: VF02) except for all it is generating PDF output.
Can anybody help me out to find the route cause for this problem.

Murali.

Hi,
For one Billing-Invoice type , PDF is not generating. But it is generating for other Invoices.
So should i need to go through the Printer settings?

Getting "server not found" errors randomly. If I reload the page comes up fine. Why?

I'm on a Mac running 10.6.5 and using Firefox 3.6.13. All of the sudden pages I visit all the time are coming up with "server not found" errors, but when I refresh the page comes up fine. Sometimes the page loads, but in html code and all jumbled.
How do I fix this? Very annoying. I've been using Firefox for years and it's never done this. Nothing's changed with my connection or settings.

You detailed the situation very well dezi.
Amazing that so many people have this problem yet NONE of these so called "AWESOME" developers deem it important enough to address the issue.
I still have the exact same lame problem as you with 3.6.whatever it is now.
There are quite a few of these random"Server not found" threads scattered around here,all with a mounting number of "people have this problem"
On my old MacBook Pro, which runs 3.5.16, I have no such issue.
After 6 weeks of exhaustive research the only thing I have found is a fix aimed at PC users in which you alter the about:config settings (not that it would work for us or that if it is even possible) that affect something called DNS fetching. I am not a computer person so all the jargon about do this-do that goes over my head. However, to get this solved I will learn what it takes.
I hope we get some real answers soon
(and none of that "empty your cache and cookies" garbage either)

Frustrated as hell

When trying to open firefox I always get "server not found".

After downloading Firefox I cannot get it to connect to the internet. I always get the message "server not found." I have tried all the "fixes" suggested online but without any luck. This is a new download and I have not used Firefox before now.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) 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 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.

Desktops get "Server Not Found" errors with WRT160N

I'm sharing my WRT160N with 2 laptops and 3 desktops. My laptops connect to the internet ok... drops now and then tho... but my desktops frequently get a "Server Not Found" error. After repeated "try again" clicks, it eventually connects again. Any ideas??

Try this ;
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Under the Setup Tab...reduce the MTU value to 1300 and save settings.
Also reduce the card speed of the dekstop... (assuming it is window XP)..Click on the Start button >>> Control Panel >> Network Connections >> Right click on the ""Local Area Connection"" icon and select properties-Here click on the "Configure" button- Click on the "Advanced" tab- In the "Property" box highlight Link speed and duplex/Connection type/Network or Media type- And in the "Value" box select 10 Mbps half duplex/ 10 base T/10 base half mode and click on OK.. Now restart the computer.

Firefox does not display "Server not found" for unexist. sites, rather Firefox display previous page or blank page.

Firefox displaying regular site (address), something like: http://www.monitor.hr/, and everything is fine. Next, I write something that do not exist (site do not exist, or it is temporary out of function, etc). So, in Firefox address bar I will write something as: http://www.news-bar.hr (at this very moment, I know this site is under DOS attack, and site is not available). But my Firefox is still presenting "last correct site" ie www.montior.hr. This behaviour is wrong. Instead "last correct site", Firefox must display message "Server not found", or something simmilar.
Same behaviour exist if I start from "blank-page". I write some "wrong address" into address bar, and after some time, page is still blank, again there is no "server not found" info.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

When i load a page i get "server not found", when i click retry it loads properly, what can i do to have firefox load page first time

When i load a page it often tells me "server not found". When i click on retry most of the time it works. How do i fix it so that it works the first time.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== a couple months ago

You either have an extension that causes that issue or some security software (firewall) is causing a delay.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Also make sure that Firefox gets full unrestricted access to the internet.
