Troubleshoot process #
This kind of issue is related to services that have stopped and are not currently active. The 1st thing to try is restarting the respective process.
1. Navigate to the windows services: Click Start → Control Panel → System and Security → Administrative Tools → Services. The “Services” window appears.
2. In the first case (“Couldn’t connect to host” message box), it may be an issue with the OpenLM Server service.
2a. Select that OpenLM Server service in the “Services” window.
2b. Right-click the OpenLM Server service, and set it to restart.
2c. Restart the EasyAdmin web application.
3. If the 2nd type message box (“Please Check your Internet connection” or “This webpage is not available”) appeared, it may be an issue of the web server service. Restart your web server service (e.g.: LightTPD).
