Agentry Server to Agentry Client Connection Issues

A Client connectivity problem will manifest as a “not all data transmitted, logging request failed” message on the Client.

If this occurs, check the events log. The events log is the primary troubleshooting tool for connectivity issues. The events log lists all the back end-specific and Agentry-specific error messages.

Login Request Failed

This error message results when the client device is not communicating with the Agentry Server. To troubleshoot the above error message:
  1. Make sure that the Agentry Server is running.
  2. If the Server is not started, you will see the logging in message for a minute and eventually get this error.
  3. Check the events log to make sure that the Agentry Server has not lost its the back end connection. Check for the following network issues:
  • Time-outs and TCP/IP issues: Troubleshoot network
  • Wireless network issues: Troubleshoot wide area network
  • Firewalls: Ensure that configured ports are open for the IP addresses of the Clients

Incorrect User ID or Password

This error is seen on the mobile device when an incorrect user ID or password is used. View the error in the events.log file located in the install directory of the Agentry Server.

To fix the problem, have the technician use the correct password.

Failure to Connect to the Server (3)

This error is received when the Agentry Client fails to connect to the Agentry Server. Because a connection to the server was not made, there will not be an entry in the events.log file.

A common cause of this error is that a Client’s network connection is not established or is severed.

To fix the problem, re-establish the computer’s network connection.

Communication Error (14)

This error is received when the Agentry Client cannot communicate with the Agentry Server. Because there is a problem communicating with the Server, there is not an entry in the events.log file. Common causes of this error are:
  • The Agentry Server service is not started
  • The network connection is not working properly
  • The device has Production logic on it and is now trying to connect to the Agentry Development Server. This is shown in the events.log file.
To fix the problem:
  • Start the Agentry Server service.
  • Disconnect, then re-establish a network connection.
