Connection failure: Build Forge


Tony Gyepi-Garbrah (5511419) | asked Apr 16 '14, 11:53 a.m.

Im getting the error message below and can't connect to the build server to run builds. I've verified that the service account is not blocked, and that the bfagent is running. Please advise.

 This error means that the agent was unable to respond to the console within the time specified. 

1. try to telnet into the agent.  >telnet -hostname -port. The details on in the link.  

This can be helpful in displaying other potential debugging information. 

2. You can also try changing the "Server Usage Connect Timeout" value in the system settings. I posted the link below. 

Thanks!
