Web server connection error

I have had my printer for about 8 months. (I use eprint from my tablet). It has worked fine until last week. I am now geting a server connetion error, unable to connect to server. I have unplugged the router, modem and printer. Then plugged them back in one at a time. It is connected to a wireless internet.

Let's set a static IP address for the printer:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). You can find the DHCP range of the router using its internal settings page or in its manual. Use the CD that came with your router or type the router's IP address (ends in .1) into a browser.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Enter your router's IP (on the Network Config Page) for the gateway and first DNS. Leave the second one blank. <<< The DNS could be your problem. If this does not work, try Google's DNS 8.8.8.8
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

My iPhone gets a "web server proxy error" connecting to wifi @ home

Ever since installing Comcast Xfinity with Motorola SB6121 and Apple Extreme 5th generation, my iPhone 4 gets a web server proxy error or similar message for any apps seeking to go online. My iPod Touch 3rd generation works as does my MacBook Pro.
I've reset the router, harangued Comcast (no help - it's your phone, sir), rebooted the iPhone, checked all my settings (VPN - what's that? it's not connected), Proxy in the VPN settings is set to off. The phone will show the signal and it will check Apple Mail but Safari, Google APP anything needing web access will either hang or give the proxy error message. Apple Customer Care said call Comcast, Comcast said call Apple & I'm surprised to find little help on the web.
Here's what I found to work on a MacForum sight from 2 years ago.
1.
Settings->WiFi->under choose a network, click the blue arrow (on the right of the network nameyou use)->DHCP
     *now check the IP address with the one on your iPod Touch or computer to see if they are in sequence
     *scroll down to HTTP Proxy & make sure it is off
     -> renew lease may work
It was the making sure the IP address was correct/in sequence which I moved to the STATIC tab and input all the same information (use a screen shot to remember it - home button and on/off button at the same time, it will store in your pictures folder) and give that a shot.
The problem appears to be where multiple machines or devices are using the same router. The iPhone 3GS assigned an IP Address in order of preference, therefore 192.175.1.1 and then 192.175.1.2 etc. The iPhone 4 will assign a strange IP address which the router will not accept. You therefore need to look at the other devices linked and see what number is next in the sequence. Then go to static on the top tab and type in the IP adress manually followed by the Subnet mask, router and DNS details. Once you have completed the info press the DHCP button and HTTP Proxy as off - this is important.

This is how i fixed the wifi problem...(i used my mac)
So basicly I created a new WiFi hotspot on my iMac, then I connected my iphone to it and it WORKS!
1. open System Preferences (Apple -> System Preferences) and click Sharing.
2. select Internet Sharing at the left side.
3. Then check off AirPort.
4. Then creat a newtwork name, and password
5. VOILA! look at the Wifi connections on your iPhone and it should be there!

reset Network
Same problem, but none of the above worked for me. Finally went to Settings/ General/ Reset/ Reset network settings. Saw this in a different thread.
Hope these help.

This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting. Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)
Change DNS Servers
Settings -> Wi-Fi
Click the blue arrow on your connected network
Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Try again
If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
On your Mac
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
You can use OpenDNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
or
You can Google Public DNS if you want
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
I have actually repointed my routers DNS so all my devices now point to OpenDNS servers

Web Services Server Connection Error

Although I was able to add my printer to hpeprintcenter successfully, after a few hours it was showing disconnected. When I pressed refresh I received a popup saying my printer had been removed. After clicking ok on the popup my printer was still listed and it's state was disconnected. Some advice I read suggested I disable Web Services from my printer's menu and renable it which would give it a new email adddress. I disabled it, but now when I try to enable Web Services the printer displays "Server Connection Error There was a problem connecting to the Server. Touch retry to connect again, or OK to Exit.". I have retried multple times for the last 12 hours with no success. Any suggestions?

I don't want to jump to that conclusion just yet. When you set the static IP from the front panel of the printer, did it let you set a static DNS? The static DNS is the important part of that step. If it didn't let you set the static DNS, go into the printer's EWS by typing it's IP address into a web browser. Set the printer to use Google's DNS (Preferred = 8.8.8.8 : Alternate = 8.8.4.4). Once you set the static DNS, power down the printer and router. Turn the router back on first and let it stabilize before turning the printer back on. It normally takes a minute or two for a router to stabilize. Let me know what happens.

When trying to initiate Web Services getting server connection error

HP PhotoSmart 5510, 6510 and 7510 all get Server Connection Error when trying to do the initial Web Services setup. I connected with no problem to my wireless router and have received an ip address but all three printer give me the same error when trying to set up web services. Any insight would be appreciated.

Web Services problem - Server connection error

Hi everybody.
When i try to enable the Web Services i get an error. I am connected to the internet (WiFi) and the connection is ok.
The error is the following:
Server Connection Error
The printer was unable to connect to the server. Check the internet connection and try again, or enter a proxy address.
I do not have a proxy, and the internet connection is ok! Why do i get this problem?
Thank you very much.

Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

HP Photosmart 6520 Server Connection Error: -1: Apps don't work and Scan to email doesn't work

My HP PhotoSmart 6520 has a persistent error to connect to the server and therefore Apps and Scan to email doesn't work.
I have manually set DNS to 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4, I have installed latest driver on my Macbook pro, I have updated firmware, but still not working. Weird is also that in my ePrintCenter, the Apps I see there are not in line with thos visible on the printer.
Detail is that I have set up the printer on a Windows PC but recently changed to Mac.
Printing, scan to Computer all works fine.
Help! I have read a lot on forums but so far no solution for me!

Hi Jack6520,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you are unable to connect to the apps and use the scan to email feature of your Photosmart 6520 printer due to a server connection error.
First off, thank you for the very detailed information, I really appreciate it.
To better assist you, would you please provide some additional information:
When you set the manual DNS servers, did you also set a manual IP address for the printer?
Have you changed routers or internet service providers recently? Have you updated the firmware on the router? If you have an ISP-provided router, do you know if they pushed out a firmware update?
Have you recently installed any new anti-virus/malware software? If so it may have blocked the ports the printer uses to communicate. I’ve included a post by VisionAiry titled “Check the Anti-Virus for Blocked Ports and Timed Scans”.
Do you have a guest network setup? Please Print a Network Configuration page. It will let you know how many networks the printer sees. A guest network will have the same name as your network with a tag about it being the guest network.
Previously did you customize the printer’s ePrint email address? I’m asking this because I might ask you to disable then enable the web services. If we have to take this step you will lose the customized ePrint email address without any ability to get it back.
What version of Mac OS X are you using? whatsmyos.com
Are there any cables other than the power cable connected to the printer?
Thank you.

Phototsmart 5510 ePrint server connection error

Hi,
I have a Photosmart 5510 with Windows 7. I am trying to turn on the ePrint service, but it has to run an update before it will enable. However, every time I try to enable it it gives me a "Server Connection Error" after trying to connect to the server for a minute or two. The printer is connected to a network with internet and I have no problems accessing every other feature. I have also tried to download the firmware update from the HP support but when I run it I am told there are no supported devices connected to the computer, regardless of usb or wireless connection to the printer and full drivers being installed. Is there a way I can do a factory reset on the printer or manually install firmware?
UPDATE:
I followed instructions to set Static IP and DNS addresses and the printer connected to the server.
Issue resolved

Hi @iliaunt,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you are getting a connection error message when trying to enable the web services of your Photosmart 5510 printer.
Please set a manual IP address and manual DNS server for the printer. I have included a link to another post that has the steps, including screen shots, of how to do this. Don’t worry that the screen shots show a Photosmart 7510 printer, the steps are the same.
Please let me know how it goes.

Deskjet 5525 Server Connection error 403 - scanning documents

I cannot scan and send documents/photos to email or computer. It is connected wirelessly to internet, but keeps coming up with Server Connection Error : 403. I have reset to factory settings on the printer, but no change.
What do I do, to be able to scan? My computer is a Mac using OS X Yosemite

Hi @ FF9451,
Welcome to the HP forum. I see you have two separate yet similar issues with scanning.
I would like to help you with these issues.
I just want to doubble check, is it a Deskjet 5525 or Photosmart 5525?
The first issue i would like to address is the scan to email. This one is the same with either a deskjet or a photosmart.
Lets start off simple, so unplug the printer while it is turned on. Might as well turn off any computers, tablets and smart
TV's also. Then unplug your router for a minute. After the minute, plug the router back in. Depending on the router it can take few minutes to rebuild the network. While your waiting plug the printer back in. you will notice the blue wireless light is blinking. When it stops blinking your printer is on the network again. Try the scan to email, if it does not work, the printer might need a manual DNS. This post: Efax 7510 still won't work, from happytohelp01, I have found really well done, so go ahead and check it out. I know every EWS (embedded web server) is laid out differently so if you need any help let me know.
The second issue is scanning to the computer. Here i have a few questions. are you using Apple scan or HP scan?
Is the Hp software installed? Have you removed the printer and then added it again?

Server Connection Error 403 - HP Photosmart 6520

My scanner all of a sudden stopped working and I got "Server Connection Error 403"
How do I fix this?

Hello @SeanTK ,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand that you are getting a Server Connection Error 403.
I would like to help.
You would only receive the 403 error if you are using scan to email.
There are a few things you can try to resolve this issue.
Hard reset the printer.
While the printer is turned on, unplug the power cord.
Wait at least 30 seconds.
Plug the power back into the printer.
Test the scan to email.
If you still get the error, try setting a manual DNS.
The following post by happytohelp01 has instructions for setting the manual DNS.
It is for a Photosmart 7510, but the steps should be very similar.
Re: Efax 7510 still won't work after turning off/on ePrint
If the Error is still present after setting the manual DNS, you should cycle your network.
Turn off your network devices, including the printer.
Unplug the power to your router for about a minute.
Plug the power back into the router.
Turn on your printer, and the other network devices.
When the blue wireless light on the printer stops blinking, try the scan to email.
Another option is to remove then re-enable the printers Web Services.
This will act like an uninstall and reinstall.
Caution: removing the printers Web Services will cause it to permanently loose its ePrint address.
If the ePrint address has been customised then that address will be lost forever.
Once you enable the Web Services again you will have to setup the scan to email.
This will provide you with a new pin.
If you need further deatail on any of the steps, please let me know.

Problem with scanning - printer display shows "Server connection error"

My printer has been working great and I have had no problems with scanning. But two days ago, all of a succen I rec'd message "server connection error". I tried to send to email as well as computer. Got the same message. As usual, I don't recall any action on my part that could have caused this problem. The copying and printing functions work fine. Detailed advice to someone technically challenged will be much appreciated. Thank you.

Ran
into a problem with connecting to the DB on the SQL server from the IPAM server. The Dba and I checked the target SQL instance was enabled TCP and listening on a valid TCP port. SQL server was set to use port 1443 for incoming connections.
IPAM was set by default to use 1433.
Also used
netstat-n to identify issue and verified 1443 on SQL server was
being used. Made the correction under the IPAM provisioning wizard and connected to the database. Fixed.
Important note I was able to connect to the database with a .udlfile
without any issues
Also note that 2012 R2 IPAM only supports 2012 SQL Enterprise. Why?

Why am I getting this error message when trying email a PDF?Server Connection Error. Please verify that port 143 is available for connection on your machine or contact your administrator.

My Inspector for my house sent me his report via PDF that I had to access from an online link. I downloaded it but cannot forward it in an email to my insurance company who is requiring a copy. I get this error report every time:
Server Connection Error. Please verify that port 143 is available for connection on your machine or contact your administrator.
I have no idea what this means. Can someone help? I really don't want to have to print and scan this beast but I've been messing with this for 2 days now and am out of ideas.
Thanks!

ABAP server connection error

Hi All,
Ours is a working BPC system. Today we are simply not able to connect to BPC excel or admin. When we checked the back end by logging into the server machine and running the server diagnostics, found that 'SAP Connection' is not successful. This is same message we are getting when logged on to the server machine 'ABAP server connection error". Something went wrong. Any idea to fix this particular issue without having to reinstall the BPC server program.
Have tried the below:
Checked the locks for all system communications users such as BPC_SYSADMIN, BPC_ADMIN, and BPC_USER and no locks ensured.
Any help to resolve this issue would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Santosh

Hi All,
Yeah the issue is resolved after we had reset the domain id that we linked to different communication purposes between ABAP and .NET systems using UJA3_WRITE_SYSUSERS program. In our case, the problem occured as we have started using the IDs that are set purely for communication between .NET and ABAP systems in the above program for accessing BPC and developing BPC objects. This apparently has caused some disruption and ABAP server connection failed.
In other words, BPC_ADMIN, BPC_SYSADMIN and BPC_USER which were created in domain as mentioned in the installation guide should not be used to access BPC front end to develop BPC related objects. I hope I understood correctly here.
