Troubleshooting
Common Issues
Server Not Detected
Symptoms: MCP server not appearing in tools, Configuration not saved
Cause: Installation path or configuration error
Solution:
- Verify server installation path is correct
- Check server executable permissions
- Restart 5ire application
- Check application logs for error messages
Tool Execution Fails
