Error Message

This error indicates that the AcctVantage Client application cannot communicate with the AcctVantage Server. This could happen for a number of reasons:

Error Message

Server IP Address Has Changed

AcctVantage Client remembers the IP address of the AV Server and tries to connect to the same IP address each time it is launched. If your AV Server has a new IP address (due to a restart or change in the network), the AV Client loses this connection and displays the error. Simply click through the error and in the Connection to 4D Server window that opens, select the Custom tab and enter the IP address to connect.

Server IP Address Has Changed

AcctVantage Server is shut down

  • Ensure that the AcctVantage Server (hardware AND software) is running.
  • Ensure that screensaver or energy saver settings are not putting the Server hard drive into Sleep mode.

Closed Firewall Port

By default, AcctVantage Server broadcasts across your network on TCP/IP Port 19813. This can be modified in the server preferences screen.
