DBConnect was working fine, and it stopped working after it crashed once. Getting RPC server not running message. Appreciate any help or pointers on this.

It happened to be an issue with /etc/hosts file. some one deleted localhost entry and Splunk healthcheck was failing.
What I noticed in the code is that its not consistent that in some places localhost is used and some places 127.0.0.1 is used.
