Hi all,

When iam trying to open k2.net work space it is showing the following error messege with red colour.

 Error: Unable to connect to server on port 5252 connect  failed.No connection could be made because the target machine actievely refused it. Any help is appriciated

Thanks,

sureshr

This is usually a symptom of:

1. The Workspace Configuration is not correct and is looking for an invalid K2 server.  Check the web.config file in C:\Program Files\K2.net 2003\K2WS\WorkspaceService (I think that's the correct path) to see if the K2 server it is pointing to is correct.

2. The K2 Server Service is not running.  Check the Windows Services applet to see if K2 Server is running.

Sorry, I was mistaken... the correct file location is:

C:\Program Files\K2.net 2003\K2WS\Workspace\web.config

(notice the "Workspace" folder as opposed to "WorkspaceService").

Open this web.config in Notepad and see what value is in the ServerName key (this is the name of the K2 Server).  Is this correct?  If so, is the K2 server service on the machine stated here started?

Is the K2 Server service up and running?  You can check this in Windows Services applet (found in Windows Administrative Tools).  If this is not running, strart it and then retry connecting to workspace.  If it is running, then I'm not sure what the issue is and would recommend contacting K2 Technical Support to better diagnose this issue.

Hi,

 I am running into the same problem... but under K2 BlackPearl.  It is a standalone install with MOSS and SQL on the same box.  What is strange is that port 5555 is working fine.  When I issue a "Netstat -ano" I cannot see port 5252.  I have started and restarted the service many times and even tried using the console option as well... still no go.  The server has its firewall disabled and there's no antivirus software installed.  When I open the Workspace, I see the following while the rest of the other pages seem to render fine.
 

========
Info 27022 Starting K2 Server Perfomance Monitoring
Error 1 The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it
========
 

Anyone have any suggestions? 

This is one i have sen before and i think there is some active investigation on let me look and find out.

OK I have something of a "WorkAround" for now. 

 

Go into the K2setup.config file.  Mine is located here (C:\Program Files\K2 blackpearl\Host Server\Bin)

There should be a line that reads

<PerfMonCounters Enable="True" Interval="5000" />

Change that to false.

Restart.

See if that works. and Let me know

Hey Chris,

 

Thanks for the help.  I don't see a K2setup.config in that folder.  I see K2Server.config, K2HostServer.config and K2Server.setup.  These three the the closest to it.

Okay... it is the K2SERVER.SETUP file.  I've made the change as instructed.  It seems to have resolve the issue!  Thanks Chris.   Still, I would like to know what caused it thought. 

 PS.  I have opened a ticket with K2 on this already.
 

 

Again. Thanks.
