What should it do? I prints out: Couldn’t register with the dashboard master at address 192.1.1.23 and port 9080 … then here’s the stack trace …

seems that the stack trace is important information here to indicate the reason?

My opinion is that stack traces are for when the software is broken. A message saying that it’s trying to connect tot he server and failing at hostname x with port y and retrying is all that is necessary.

Fixed with the retry mechanism
