that the server on which your client database is stored is on and has access to the internet.

If that's all good, the MYOB OnTheGo API service on the server might have stopped.

 

The following troubleshooting information will help you check it.

titleCheck if the MYOB OnTheGo service is running

On your server / computer where your MYOB application is installed:

  2. Locate MYOB OnTheGo API Service and check its status. 
  3. If the status is "Stopped", you need to restart it. See below for help with this.

titleIf you need to restart the MYOB OnTheGo service

On your server / computer where your MYOB application is installed:

  1. Go to your Windows Start menu > Services.
  2. Locate MYOB OnTheGo API Service.
  3. If the MYOB OnTheGo API Service is stopped, start it by right-clicking on the service and selecting Start.

Other things to note:

  • The Startup Type should be set to Automatic (deferred). This will avoid problems with the service not being started in the future.
  • If the service is simply started, this will correct the current issue but may mean that the MYOB OnTheGo API Service isn't started after the next server restart.
  • If the MYOB OnTheGoAPI Service remains in the starting state, wait for 5 minutes for it to finish starting. If a message appears saying that a service is taking too long to start, click OK and continue to wait for 5 minutes.
  • If the service takes 5 minutes to start, then there are probably internet access issues. See your system administrator for advice.
  • If the service doesn't start, force it to stop and then start it again.
