ERROR: Backend server is not running!

Greetings, I am experiencing a bit of a problem here on daphne, out of nowhere. The FRED services have never stopped running for two months now but daphne puts out the following message after hitting login. Error: Error: Backend server is not running! Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fred_webadmin/exposed.py", line 25, in _wrapper return view_func(*args, **kwd) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fred_webadmin/controller/adif.py", line 241, in login self._authenticate(form, admin) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fred_webadmin/controller/adif.py", line 175, in _authenticate auth.authenticate_user(admin, login, password) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fred_webadmin/auth/corba_auth.py", line 11, in authenticate_user admin.authenticateUser(recoder.u2c(username), recoder.u2c(password)) File "/tmp/tmprSxSnq", line 6903, in authenticateUser TRANSIENT: CORBA.TRANSIENT(omniORB.TRANSIENT_ConnectFailed, CORBA.COMPLETED_NO) All FRED services are still running. The logs don't show anything conclusive, what could be happening? Regards, Moeketsi Maphoi Systems Engineer: LsNIC
