Unable to display your client list or details?

If you're seeing the error, "There's nothing wrong with your AE/AO Live, but one of the services at your business is not running..." when attempting to load your clients list, there might be an issue at our end. These issues are usually resolved within minutes, so please try again later.

If you use MYOB AE/AO in your practice, you should check 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.

Troubleshooting for MYOB AE/AO users

Check if the MYOB OnTheGo service is running

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

  1. Open your Windows Start menu and type services.
  2. Select Services.
  3. Locate the MYOB OnTheGo API Service and check its status. 
  4. If the status is "Stopped", you need to restart it. See below for help with this.
If you need to restart the MYOB OnTheGo service

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

  1. Open your Windows Start menu and type services.
  2. Select Services.
  3. Locate the MYOB OnTheGo API Service.
  4. If the MYOB OnTheGo API Service is "Stopped", start it by right-clicking the service and selecting Start.

If the service:

  • starts, the issue should be fixed. You should check that the MYOB OnTheGo API Service starts after the next server restart.
  • remains in the "Starting" state, wait for 5 minutes for it to finish. If a message appears saying that a service is taking too long to start, click OK and wait a further 5 minutes.
  • doesn't start, force it to stop and then start it again.

Also note:

  • If the service takes more than 5 minutes to start, there are probably internet access issues. See your system administrator for advice.
  • The Startup Type should be set to Automatic (deferred). This will avoid problems with the service not being started in the future.
If you need to stop the MYOB OnTheGo service

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

  1. Open your Windows Start menu and type services.
  2. Select Services.
  3. Locate the MYOB OnTheGo API Service.
  4. Stop the service by right-clicking on the service and selecting Stop.
If the MYOB OnTheGo service is missing

If the MYOB OnTheGo API Service is not listed in the Services window on your server / computer where your MYOB application is installed, try this:

  1. Open your Windows Start menu and type cmd .
  2. Right-click Command Prompt and run it as an administrator.
  3. Type cd C:\Program Files (x86)\MYOB\OntheGoPremise\ (or the folder where MYOB OnTheGo is installed on your computer). Press Enter.
  4. Type CloudBurst.Premise.ConsoleHost.exe install . Press Enter.


If you see a message saying "The installation failed" or "The specified service already exists", try this:

  1. In the same command prompt window, type CloudBurst.Premise.ConsoleHost.exe uninstall . Press Enter and wait a few moments for the service to be uninstalled.
  2. Type CloudBurst.Premise.ConsoleHost.exe install . Press Enter.
  3. Once the service is installed, type CloudBurst.Premise.ConsoleHost.exe start . Press Enter.
