A Checklist for testing connection to a webserver.
Network check list:
Use the following command in a terminal :
test-netconnection Servername - port portnumber

Make sure your monitoring software is configured to monitor the status of the server.
Make sure the process your app uses are running.
Go to resource monitor on the web server , network, tcp connections, and make sure your app’s process is currently listening on the appropriate port. You can also see how many connections it current has.
