Troubleshooting Guide

Login Issues (Unable to Access the Platform)

If you’re having trouble logging in, start by confirming that your MMSI/Relevate username and password are correct. Double-check that Caps Lock is not enabled. If the issue persists, try opening the site in Incognito or Private mode to rule out browser-related problems. You can also disable autofill and manually re-enter your credentials, or switch to a different browser such as Chrome, Safari, or Edge.

If you’re able to log in to Relevate but clicking the Perchwell tile does not redirect you, manually navigate to perchwell.com while still logged into your MMSI/Relevate account.


Site Not Loading or Stuck Loading

If the site isn’t loading properly, perform a hard refresh:

  • PC: Press Ctrl + Shift + R

  • Mac: Press Cmd + Shift + R

If that doesn’t resolve the issue, check your internet connection, toggle your Wi-Fi off and back on, or try accessing the platform using a different browser or device.


Slow or Lagging Performance

If the platform feels slow or unresponsive, try closing any unused tabs or applications to free up system resources. Restart your browser and check your internet speed to ensure a stable connection. Disabling browser extensions can also help improve performance. If needed, restart your computer to fully reset your system.


Blank or Broken Pages

If you encounter a blank or partially loaded page, clearing your browser’s cache and cookies often resolves the issue:

  • PC: Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete and clear cache and cookies

  • Mac:

    • Safari → Settings → Privacy → Remove Website Data

    • Chrome → Cmd + Shift + Delete

After clearing your cache, reload the page.


Clearing Cache and Cookies

To manually clear cache and cookies:

  • PC (Chrome/Edge): Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete, select cache and cookies, then clear

  • Mac:

    • Chrome: Cmd + Shift + Delete

    • Safari: Settings → Privacy → Remove All Website Data

This helps resolve issues caused by outdated or corrupted stored data.


Browser Compatibility Issues

If the platform works in one browser but not another, make sure your browser is up to date. Disable any extensions or plugins that could interfere with functionality, then clear your cache and cookies. For the best experience, use a supported browser—Google Chrome is recommended.


Features Not Working (Buttons, Filters, Maps)

If certain features are not responding, start by disabling browser extensions, especially ad blockers, as they can interfere with functionality. Ensure that JavaScript is enabled in your browser settings. You can also try using Incognito/Private mode to isolate the issue. If needed, clear your cache and reload the page.


Permission or Access Errors

If you’re seeing access or permission-related errors, confirm that you are logged in with the correct account. Logging out and back in can often refresh your session. If the issue continues, verify that your account has the appropriate permissions or role. If you’re unsure, contact your administrator for assistance.


Blocked Pop-ups or Downloads

If pop-ups or downloads are being blocked, you’ll need to update your browser settings:

  • PC (Chrome): Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Site Settings → Allow pop-ups

  • Mac (Safari): Go to Settings → Websites → Pop-up Windows → Allow

Once updated, refresh the page and try again.
