I got this error message and I have no idea how to solve this: 

Error: The connection could not be established to a SAS Workspace Server named 'Local' running on port on host 'localhost'.

Please verify the following:
- The correct hostname and port number were specified.
- If a firewall is present, it is correctly configured to allow this access.
- An object spawner has been started on the server.
- The SETINIT on the server is not expired.

Please contact your SAS Administrator if the problem persists.

Server response: Esecuzione del server non riuscito.

If you are supposed to work with a remote server, you need to set up a correct metadata profile. Your SAS admins will assist you in this.

"Strange" make it sounds that has been working. If so,what has changed?

If you intend to work with a Local profile, you need to have a Base SAS installation on you local machine.
