Let’s see all these fixes in detail.
1] Power Cycle your router
We suggest you power cycle your router. This action will fix the problems occurring due to network issues. To do so, follow the below-written steps:
- Turn off your router.
- Remove its plug from the wall socket.
- Wait for a few minutes.
- Turn on your router.
Now, check if the problem persists.
2] Flush your DNS cache
At times DNS cache gets corrupted due to which internet connection problems occur. Internet connection problems can also be fixed by flushing the DNS cache. If you are experiencing this error in the Minecraft Java edition, flushing the DNS cache will help.
3] Temporarily disable your antivirus and firewall
The error message indicates that some program is blocking the connection to the server. In most cases, it is either an antivirus or a firewall. To check this, disable your antivirus and firewall temporarily. If this action resolves the problem, you have to unblock your application in the antivirus and firewall. Contact customer support if you are using a third-party antivirus or firewall.
The problem may also occur if the port used by a particular application is blocked by the firewall. First, check which ports are blocked and opened. If you find your port is blocked, unblock it in Windows Firewall. Again, if you are using a third-party firewall, you have to contact them to know how to unblock ports via Firewall.
4] Close all other running applications
In the error message, it is unclear what is aborting the established connection. Close all the running programs. Open the Task Manager and disable the startup apps. After that restart your computer. Now, check if the issue is fixed or not.
5] Restart the Eclipse software
In some cases, there is no major cause for the issue. Eclipse sometimes fails to establish a connection with the emulator. Such types of problems can be fixed easily by restarting the Eclipse software. Exit Eclipse, wait for some time, and then launch Eclipse again.
6] Check for multiple instances of Eclipse software
Some users found that the problem was occurring due to multiple instances of Eclipse running on their systems. Check if this is the case with you. If yes, close all other instances of Eclipse. This error can also occur if you are running Android Studio and Eclipse at the same time. In this case, close Android Studio and restart Eclipse. This should fix the issue.
