[SOLVED] Error attaching to Reporting Server: MAINTAIN

Over the weekend, our WebFOCUS 7.6.5 server, which is on a vm, was moved from to an offsite location. Before it was moved, the application ran without any issues. Since the vm was moved, the application will not open. The error I am receiving is:
"Error attaching to Reporting Server: MAINTAIN The reporting server may not be running or may not be properly defined in the Client Communication Configuration file."
The WebFOCUS environment is configured with 2 servers: wfs and wfsMaintain. The odin.cfg files were not changed. The wfs/odin.cfg file has a MAINTAIN node configured. The wfsMaintain/odin.cfg does not have a MAINTAIN node.
The following control is on the login page:
and the following is executed on 'submit': document.starter.IBIF_cmd.value="MNTCON CLOSEMSH \n MNTCON RUN "+AppName;
There have not been any modifications to any of the configuration or login files since the move occurred.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get the app up and running?

Thank you,
Deana

I found the problem. When the server was initially configured it was configured with an ip address. When it moved offsite, the ip address changed, but the machine name remained the same. In preparation for the move, I searched and thought I had replaced all instances of the ip address in the various config and html files. However, I missed one: c:\ibi\WebFOCUS76\client\wfc\etc\odin.cfg.
