Clients refused connection on new network.


Recommended Posts

We have just relocated our server and a pair of clients to another temporary location and we are finding that our clients are being refused connection to the server. The server is visible from the client configuration when the network is scanned but when a connection attempt is made, the error is reported.

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

All machines are running Windows 8.1.

Server version 5.4.16.721

Client version 5.4.16.738

Any suggestions at this point as to how to proceed would be very much appreciated.

It sounds like a Windows firewall denying the connection for the 8087 port. Can you check it?

 

You'll need to check it for both client and server machines. A very fast test is disabling it for both and testing the connection.
