I had a problem accessing the server for around 10 minutes - that was about 45 minutes ago. It is ok now.

Maybe you hit the same problem. Have you tried restarting the agent?

Was this a temporary error as RobSab suggested or is there something continuing that needs attention?

Could your firewall be blocking server access?
Can you say what the error said?....Or a screenshot of it?
