Troubleshooting

Common Issues

MCP Server Not Connecting

Symptoms: Server shows disconnected status, Tool calls fail, Timeout errors

Cause: Invalid configuration or server not accessible

Solution:

  • Verify MCP server URL or command is correct
  • For STDIO servers, ensure Node.js and npx are installed
  • Check firewall settings allow connections
  • Review server logs in Toolbox dashboard
  • Test server independently outside Msty

Local Model Performance Issues

Symptoms: Slow response times, High memory usage, System freezes

Cause: Model size exceeds hardware capabilities

Solution:

  • Use smaller model variants (e.g., Llama 3 8B instead of 70B)
  • Enable quantization for reduced memory footprint
  • Close other applications to free resources
  • Consider using cloud models for complex tasks
  • Check system requirements for selected model

Privacy Mode Not Working

Symptoms: Data appears to be sent externally, Telemetry detected, Unexpected network activity

Cause: Cloud models or online MCP servers configured

Solution:

  • Ensure using only local models (Llama.cpp-based)
  • Configure STDIO MCP servers instead of HTTP/SSE
  • Disable internet connection to verify offline capability
  • Review Insights dashboard for token usage (should be zero for local)
  • Check Privacy settings are configured correctly

Turnstile Workflow Failures

Symptoms: Workflow stops mid-execution, Steps not triggering, Incorrect branching

Cause: Logic errors or MCP server issues

Solution:

  • Test each workflow step individually
  • Verify all MCP servers in workflow are connected
  • Review workflow logic and conditions
  • Check Turnstile logs for execution errors
  • Simplify complex workflows for debugging

Cross-Device Sync Problems

Symptoms: Settings not syncing, Conversations missing, Inconsistent state

Cause: Sync service issues or Aurum plan not active

Solution:

  • Verify Aurum plan is active and current
  • Check internet connection on all devices
  • Manually trigger sync from settings
  • Review sync logs for errors
  • Contact support if issues persist

Alibaba Cloud AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL not appearing in Msty Studio

Symptoms: Server not listed, Tools not available

Cause: Configuration or installation issue

Solution:

  • Verify configuration syntax
  • Check Alibaba Cloud AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL installation
  • Restart Msty Studio
