Troubleshooting
Problem
User launches the FAP Client ("FAP Connect"), and logs on (to connect to the FAP database). The system appears to 'hang' for 60 seconds, during which a blank white screen appears. An error appears. After clicking 'continue' the FAP client appears to work. However, if click on the menu item "Logs" a new error appears. User then clicks "Continue", and the FAP client seems to work, but unfortunately there is no information displayed inside the 'logs' section (so therefore the user cannot check if the data is trickling correctly etc.).
Symptom
Initial screen (for the first 60 seconds after launching FAP Connect):
Error after 60 seconds:
- Microsoft .NET Framework
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.
