Admin Console won't connect - how to restart it

Featured Replies

Is there a way to restart the Admin Console?

I got a java error from the Admin Console and when I tried to get back into it, I got the following error:

The Admin Console cannot establish a connection to the admin server.

I had to kick everyone out of FM and restart FM services to get access to the Admin COnsole back.

Hi, Julie.

Check the Windows Services Control Panel to be sure that the FIleMaker Server service is running. You'll get that error from the console if it's not.

I have gotten the same error running on a "vista" machine. And, the services are running.

thanks

You may have to restart the Server that the FMS resides on. Give that a try.
