Check in the logs folder, sorted by most recent

vitalsigns@vitalsigns1:~/vitalsigns-1.0/logs$ ls -alht | grep dataserver

Pick the first one to follow it

vitalsigns@vitalsigns1:~/vitalsigns-1.0/logs$ tail -f dataserver_20220912_205951165.log

If there's no activity, even after you attempt to login in VS, the data server is stuck. Restart it

Restarting data server

Stopping stuck data server

vitalsigns@vitalsigns1:~/vitalsigns-1.0/bin$ ./stopDataServer.sh

If the process is still running after this, then:

kill [pid]

If it persists:

kill -9 [pid]

Starting data server

vitalsigns@vitalsigns1:~/vitalsigns-1.0/bin$ ./startDataServer.sh

Then check the logs to make sure it started properly.
