org.apache.flink.shaded.netty4.io.netty.channel.AbstractChannel$AnnotatedConnectException: Connection refused: localhost/127.0.0.1:8081

while trying to stream data with Flink. My code was functioning fine about a month ago and now I am getting this error. Before I was also able to monitor the streaming progress by accessesing Flink Web Dashboard on http://localhost:8081 and now my browser returns an error that it can not access the server "localhost". What could be the problem? Thank you in advance.

The full output of error message:

Can you make sure that Flink is actually running. If it does, then the logs would be interesting to see. Till Rohrmann Oct 5, 2018 at 22:20
