Potential Cause:
The Manager server (Java) tries to establish connections to the web server. If any of the server communication are not established, the Manager will not startup properly. The problem might be due to the following reasons:
Java process not running on serverClient.
The client cannot talk to server (blocked ports).
Database is not running on the server.
The Manager server process is not running on the appliance or on the Manager software.
