Troubleshooting: Connecting to the

BlackBerry Administration Service

The web browser displays an HTTP 404 or HTTP 504

error message when it tries to connect to a BlackBerry

Administration Service instance

Possible cause Possible solution
You created a BlackBerry Administration Service pool using
DNS round robin and you stopped the BlackBerry
Administration Service services for the BlackBerry
Administration Service instance that you currently use.
Although you stopped the BlackBerry Administration
Service services, it might take some time before the
BlackBerry Administration Service instance completes the
shutdown process. During this time, if the web browser
sends an HTTP request to the BlackBerry Administration
Service instance, the BlackBerry Administration Service
instance accepts the request because the connection is still
available. However, while the BlackBerry Administration
Service instance processes the request, it completes its
shutdown process and the connection becomes
unavailable. The web browser displays an error message.
Wait a few seconds and then try to click a link in the
BlackBerry Administration Service console again. The web
browser redirects you to an instance in the BlackBerry
Administration Service pool that is running and the web
browser displays the login page for the instance.
The BlackBerry Administration Service cannot connect to
the BlackBerry Configuration Database.
Verify the BlackBerry Administration Service can access
the BlackBerry Configuration Database. If necessary,
restart the BlackBerry Configuration Database.
