7.“Couldn’t open a socket ” or “unable to establish connection:” errors cfagent and cfrun can display errors such as:

cfengine:: Couldn’t open a socket

cfengine:: Unable to establish connection with host1 (failover)

host2: Couldn’t open a socket

If the master server cfservd is running, this error could indicate that a there is a firewall or port issue such that the client cannot reach port TCP 5308 on the master server. When using cfrun, the master server must also be able to reach TCP port 5308 on the remote client. Ensure that any firewall rules allow access to these ports.
