Cannot connect to the server

You cannot connect to the Content Classification server on AIX®, Linux, or Solaris.

Symptoms

On AIX, Linux, or Solaris, you try to connect to the Content Classification server and receive an error that the gethostbyname method failed.

Causes

A localhost entry might be missing or incorrectly specified in the /etc/hosts file.

Resolving the problem

To resolve this problem, open the /etc/hosts file on the computer on which Content Classification is installed and verify that there are localhost entries for the unqualified computer name. For example:
127.0.0.1  localhost ComputerName
::1  localhost ComputerName
Important: Ensure that only the unqualified computer name is listed in the localhost entries. The domain name should not be specified. For example, the entries should not specify ComputerName.DomainName.
