[Xymon] Xymon status does not get updated

It seems that telnet works because it returns "connected to 
193.61.54.144", however it looks like it hangs after the:
(Escape character is '^]') line. I can type things but nothing is 
returned when I hit "Enter", only the cursor just goes to the next line.
I only use ssh so I can't tell if my telnet works properly.

This is what I get:

telnet 193.61.54.144 1984
Trying 193.61.54.144...
Connected to 193.61.54.144.
Escape character is '^]'.

Yes xymond is running. It's first on my "top" list:

(23182 xymon 25   0  7992 1984 1380 R   100.0    0.1   8286:29 xymond)


The command you asked me to run returns the following:

2012-10-15 10:00:10 Using default environment file 
/home/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg
2012-10-15 10:00:25 Whoops ! Failed to send message (timeout)

fields=hostname,testname,color,flags,lastchange,logtime,validtime,acktime,disabletime,sender,cookie,line1,acklist'


A few more log files.
