How to access event server messaging service

Hi guys…

Trying to run the "Status Viewer " example inside the Componentes samples, I catch the error saying “Unable to connect to EventServer’s MessageCommunication service (default port 22333) - will retry every 5 seconds”,

I’m running it locally on my DEV box.

I’ve tried the following:

  • ping the Milestone management server, Result: success
  • telnet to the same address and port 22333. Result success
  • I downloaded the example into a server where I have running my solution so I know the communication to milestone server management is working. Result, success, I mean I was able to run the example and get the information I required if I run the example on the server.

reading the last point, it looks obvious the communication between my DEV box and the MIlestone server is broken. so I temporarily disable my firewall just to see if the port was closed, but still receiving the same error.

So in a few words: I have my firewall turned off, I can ping the Milestone Management server, I can TELNET to port 22333, I’m able to run the example inside one server BUT even with all this, I can’t run the example locally on my DEV box

Any help will be appreciated.

thanks!!!

It sounds like an installation issue or a network issue. Can you please ask again in the support community for the first step? You should get better help from the partners using the support community.

Hi Rie
Thanks for your comment.

Was something related with the network. On The Tools–> Registered Services, I changed the value for Event Server from a DNS to IP. Not sure why, but it solved my issue. Probably there is something incorrect in the configuration on the DNS.

Thanks again.
