Server not found when Windows wakes up

When I wake up my Windows 7 desktop machine Firefox 7 always shows "server not found" errors for websites that continuously update, like huffingtonpost or drudgereport.
Clicking on "try again" always works fine, but I'd like to know how to set things so it would happen automatically. This started with Firefox 4.0. before that there was no problem.

It is possible the firewall hasn't completely restarted since the PC is waking up from sleep mode, but I would still blame Firefox. It should allow for this possibility just after sleep mode has ended instead of putting up a dialog box I have to click manually to fix the problem. Other browsers (Internet Explorer) don't have this problem.
But if there is a Firefox option along the lines of "wake up last after sleep mode ends" that I don't have set properly I'd like to know about it.

Firefox is showing "Server not found" when Fedora 14 NetworkManger is detecting ppp connection through wireless broadband modem

Hi,
I am using Wireless broadband modem. Network manager is detecting the modem and successfully acquring an ip through ppp0. But Firefox is showing "Server not found". I have found that /etc/resolv.conf is updated properly. And ping or nslookup on some url like www.google.com is working from terminal. So it seems either firefox is not able to use DNS or ppp connection. I have also tried by disabling eth or lo. But of no use.

See this thread: here.
However, please don't use 192.168.0.2 for the router but 192.168.137.2 instead. Home sharing uses 192.168.137.1 on the sharing computer instead of 192.168.0.1 as it was in earlier Windows versions.
To make the change, unplug the WRT from your network. Wire your second computer to a LAN port of the WRT.
Open the web interface at http://192.168.1.1/
On the main setup page, change the LAN IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.137.2.
On the same page, disable the DHCP server.
Save settings.
Unplug the computer. Now wire one of the numbered LAN ports of the WRT to your home sharing computer.
That's it.

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.

Server not found when switching from 4g to wifi and vice versa.

I've had this issue for a while across multiple phones and multiple versions of Firefox for Android, and it does not happen with any other browser (which is upsetting). Whenever I am surfing the web and have multiple tabs open, and I switch from 4g to wifi or vice versa, I always get a "Server not found" error on both existing tabs and new tabs. This is an annoying issue that I am surprised to see hasn't been fixed. The only way I've been able to fix it is to quit and relaunch the app. I have tried removing plug-ins and reinstalling, but it has not helped.
Anything I could do to alleviate the issue?
LG G2 and Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Both on Android 4.4.2

Hi scruffy90:
You wrote "LG G2 and Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Both on Android 4.4.2 Firefox for Android Ver. 35.0.1 "
I just tried switching between HSPA+ aka 3G and WiFi on a Galaxy S5 running Android 5 and have had no issues but I think this may have been an issue in the past (I did a search for a bug in bugzilla.mozilla.org but couldn't find anything).
Are there any other details you could provide that could help us debug?
e.g.
# Are you using a proxy?
# Who is your WiFi provider?
# Have you tried other WiFi (e.g. the Wifi both at home and work)
Cheers!

Hello Roland,
No proxy on the phone or wi-fi network.
My ISP is Time Warner, but I supply my own router (Linksys e4200)
And this happens on every wi-fi network, at home and away from home.

Server not found when trying to access our credit union.

Our credit union address is part of our bookmarks. About half the time we get an error message that says "Server not found".
It says to check the address for typos, check the network connection or make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

Hi sws23, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Open System Preferences>Network>Configure>Proxies Tab, make sure none are set, like for HTTPS.

Server not found by windows vista home version

Hello, can somebody help me bei sign in on icloud? After log in I get "server not fount" Using windows vista home!
What shall I do than?

It could be a firewall or anti-virus software issue that is causing this. You can test this by temporarily disabling the firewall and/or anti-virus software.

'Server not found' error

I'm currnently having issues with my internet connection. I keep getting 'server not found' when loading web pages. But when I open my network preferences, it says I'm connected.
I've tried using other browsers but they won't work either. To confuse matters further every other wireless device in the house works fine.
Can anyone help me?

I've seen some on here report connectivity problems when they are using WEP WFi encryption - if yours is WEP you could try changing it to WPA as it sometimes seems to resolve the problem.
You'll need to go into your router's WiFi settings to change it. To get to the configuration page for your router you'll probably need to input http://192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 into your browser - if one of these doesn't work you'll need to find the instructions for your particular router.
If the above doesn't help you could try this:
System Preferences>Network, select the troublesome connection on the left and click on the 'minus' button to delete it. Then click on the 'plus' button and from the pop up window select 'WiFi' (assuming that's what you want) and try to set the connection up again, you'll need your WiFi password.
Good luck.

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?

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.

"Server Not Found" Message when downloading Flash Player

Hello,
I am trying to download Macromedia Flash Player using my
Firefox browser, but when I click on "Download Now" an error
message appears:
"Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at fpdownload.macromedia.com.
* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's
network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or
proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."
There is no such problem when I use Internet Explorer, but my
preferred browser is Firefox. Is there any reason why Firefox can't
access the server? Or is there another site I can download Flash
from?
I downloaded the latest Firefox version a couple of days ago,
v1.5.0.2
I use Windows ME.
Thanks,
HeywoGr

sounds like a local issue on your end with firefox. I can
connect with FF here:

Maybe restart FF?

Thank you for the link, but I am not sure how this is going to help me: I am not booting straight to an X session, but prefer to log into TTY1 and have my login shell handle everything from there.
Here is the relevant part of my .zprofile:
if (( UID )); then
[[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec systemd --user
fi
As far as I understand, your method works if I enable the [email protected] template when actually booting straight to X.

Stored procedure not found when creating a new recordset binding in Dreamweaver CS6 with ColdFusion Server 11

Stored procedure not found when creating a new recordset binding in Dreamweaver CS6 with ColdFusion Server 11. I can see the tables and views in the database tab, but no stored procedures. If I connect to a data source created in ColdFusion Server 6 I am able to see the stored procedures.

Ben thanks for the reply!
Yes that is the process I am following:
In Dreamweaver, open the page that will run the stored procedure.
In the Bindings panel (Window > Bindings), click the Plus button, and then select Stored Procedure.
In the Data Source pop‑up menu, select a connection to the database containing the stored procedure
Enter the ColdFusion Data Source user name and password.
At this point in the procedure drop down I would get a message that said No Stored Procedure Found.
Right now it appears to be working, I had to create a new site that pointed to the older CF 6 server's data source and create a page following the process above, then when I went back to the CF 11 site the stored procedures were now populated. I need to make sure it is pulling from the correct server but right now it appears to be working.
Thanks

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?

Client returns server not found:rtmp://192.168.10.1:/live when accessed from another pc

Hi there. Please i have a small LAN of about 8 computers all of which are running windows 7. I have installed FMS and XAMPP webserver on one of the machines. I want to stream live from one PC to all the other PCs on the LAN. I have a webpage with jwplayer embedded in it on my XAMPP webserver that is able to see the live stream when i start it locally. I mean the live stream works fine on the machine with the servers on it. But when i want to view the live stream from another machine in the LAN by accessing the webpage that has the jwpalyer from another machine, The jwplayer returns "server not found:rtmp://192.168.10.1/live" error. I was thinking that maybe a firewall is blocking the 1935 port but i have turned off the firewall of every PC on the LAN. I have unistalled any antivirus program on all the PCs. But i still get the same error when i try to access the live stream from another PC on the LAN.
When i run netstat -a -n|find ":1935" i get 192.168.10.2:49184   192.168.10.1:1935     SYN_SENT and i think the request for the stream is sent but the conection is rejected.
This is the code for the webpage with jwplayer embedded in it. maybe it can help:

This page is able to view the stream on my local machine but it wouldn't work on the other machines on the machines. Is it not possible to stream over a LAN or what? OR What am i not doing right. [hmmn! [sighs] this is so frustrating]. help me please.Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks man. that is so helpful. But i doesn't solve the problem yet. I'll appreciate it a great deal if you could help me make the server accept requests from the 1935 port... And please tell me whether by server, u mean the FMS or the entire server on which the FMS is installed. I'm guessing it is the latter. Thanks in advance for your help

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

I keep getting the following error "server not found.....firefox can't find the server at http." when I try to log on to one certain website.

I was able to access this website prior to 2 weeks ago. I can access this website on other computers without issues, and I can also access all other websites on this computer.
The following is what is listed in the navigation bar when I get the error message.
http://iphantom.com/wisd/restricted.html?fn=Default&FP=l&ip=10.201.5157&ibip=66.206.97.9&ldu=l&re=0&bu=wps.prenhall.com
I noticed it says wisd/restricted, but I can log on to this website using my wisd computer without issue, and I get the same error message at my home/other locations. So I know that it is not restricted. I have used all the other suggestions "no proxy", shut down firewalls, but nothing has worked.
Any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Cody
