Hp-setup not connecting to server from China

Hello all,
this is a weird problem: when I am in China I sometimes need to install new HP printers; those printers, like LaserJet M1213nf MFB of today, are fully supported by hplip on Debian, but when I try to run hp-setup it cannoct connect to server. The same if I try to download plugin with hp-plugin.
Of course, I have absolutely no problem when running hplip suite application from Europe.
As far as you know, there is some particular issue related to the country (China) where I'm in?

I understand now.  The problem you are having is the printer will not install (hp_setup is also the name of printer's network).  
How is the printer connected that you want to install the software for (USB, wireless or Ethernet)?
If it is a network connected printer and your computer is also on that network, you may be slowing down your PC installing software for every printer you come into contact with during your travels.  I recommend trying to install the HP ePrint Driver which will automatically search for any printer on the same network and it will print to it like it is a driver.
This may or may not be a possibility for you but it works very well if you are currently unable to print due to the problems you are having right now getting the printer's software to install.
Bear with me while I research the information you have provided and I will see if these errors are related to your current location or not.  Thank you for your patience.
I welcome anyone who knows about China's firewalls to comment but this is the English page (I tried to send you a link to the Asian Pacific forums and my computer did not like that so I will send you to the AP business support page). This is to increase your chances of getting an answer from that side of the world.  It will be rare but I really hope someone comments here too.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
Every problem has a solution!

  • TS1843 Not receiving apple mail.  Connection Doctor says not connected to server.  Yet receiving gmail and yahoo mail.

    Not receiving apple mail.  Checked connection Doctor.  Not connected to server, yet receiving gmail and yahoo mail.

    No, I have a Mac and my email connects via our pacbell account we've had for years.  However, something in the Preferences/Accounts is not correct I am guessing.  Also, it asks for the password and if I put it in and click save through general or viewing, it's NOT saving it and still not allowing me to get email. My husband tried reading about this through our AT&T acct and said to change the incoming server to imap.mail.yahoo.com and outgoing smtp.mail.yahoo;[email protected], but now I can't receive or send any email on my Mac. In advanced not sure if it should be Port of 465 or 900 something or other and SSL checked or not.  I called AT&T and they want to take over my machine by charging $15/mos for a year to fix this.  Ridiculous. 
    So, everytime prior to yesterday, when my husband messed around with it, I was getting a POP needs password box, typed in my password, but to no avail..Then it Keychain password popped up and assumed it was the same, but there's no way to change or modify it even using the new password my husband set up through AT&T.  I am at a complete loss.
    I can access mail through yahoo mail and it takes me to AT&T Yahoo Mail, but no contacts are there so needless to say this is a pain.
    I appreciate any assistance you can give me so I can get back on my email as I have for 4 years.
    Thanks Hackintosh...I look forward to hearing from you....you can use the email above and it will come to me through my yahoo web page....Thanks again and let me know if you need any other information.  If you respond on here, I may not get the answer from you as I didn't know you responded until I came on discussions.  THanks

  • SSRS Database Configuration Manager Error - Could not connect to server: The type initializer for 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection' threw an exception

    I'm Getting the "Could not connect to server: The type initializer for 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection' threw an exception" Error on an existing Instance of SSRS that had been working previously (lots of installs/patches since).
    Any time I try to hit the "Test Connection" button on existing connections or create new ones from the SSRS Config Mgr., it throws that error.
    I know the SQL Server connectivity works (I have SSMS installed on there and can cut and paste server Login to connect). The problem is I can't really get any more details on the error...Event Viewer isn't logging anything, I have upped the trace level
    to 4 in the reportingservicesservice.config file, I have even watched it with procmon and nothing obvious pops up.
    Let me know if anyone else has been down this path and what they have tried.

    Hi BillOlive,
    Based on my research, the issue may be related to user access permission. You can refer to the following method to troubleshooting the issue:
    Open C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG folder | right click on the machine.config file | Properties | Security | make sure your domain account has FULL CONTROL permission on this file.
    If above steps still do not work, please backup your machine.config file to somewhere else and replace with the attached one from my Windows Server 2008 environment.
    Alternatively, app.config file also may cause the same issue. There is a similar issue, you can refer to it.

    I have same problem and this is the solution
    Go to the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP\SAP Business One\Conf
    Copy the file b1-current-user.xml and put it aside
    Go to the directory %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\SAP\SAP Business One
    Check the file b1-current-user.xml which is likely empty or wrong strings
    Rename the b1-current-user.xml file for backup
    Move the copied file into the directory.

  • Network error could not connect to server 127.0.0.1:5900

    I have created a virtual machine in VM manager from a template and when I try to view the console I get the error "network error could not connect to server 127.0.0.1:5900"
    The way that I have everything set up is this.... I am using Oracle VirtualBox installed on Windows 7 and I have created a virtual machine in VirtualBox with Oracle Virtual Server installed and I have Oracle VM Manager installed on that same virtual machine. After reading some forums I found out that I needed to install TightVNC to be able to use the console from Windows IE. So, I have installed TightVNC on my OVS but I can not even tell if it is running. I have also made sure that in iptables that port 5900 is open. I have confirmed this by using nmap to scan my ports and port 5900 is open for vnc when my virtual machine in vm manager is running. I just can not figure out why I am getting the network error unless TighVNC is not running on my OVS. Does anyone have any ideas for why this might be happeneing. Thanks

    Hi,
    it seemed when you registered the OVM server to the OVM manager, it did not deliver the correct hostname, but the local address instead.
    See if your /etc/hosts contains the hostname in the 127.0.0.1 line.
    Correct the /etc/hosts, remove the OVS server and reregister with OVM manager.
    Regards
    Sebastian
