Error: RC -121 when running communications

Troubleshooting


Problem

Error: RC -121 when running communications in Gentran:Director version 5.x.

Symptom

Error in Communications Log
Error: RC -121 -- The error means that a semaphore timeout period has expired. After examination this error seems to preface an error 10057.
RC -10057: A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied. In layman's terms, Windows is unable to talk to the internet connection
