Test Console service is not running. Contact administrator to start this service

I was unable to test a Proxy/Business service, and getting the error message
"Test Console service is not running. Contact administrator to start this service"

I opened the AdminServer logs and it was full of:



An exception [java.lang.StackOverflowError] was thrown while rendering the content at [/jsp/dashboard/DashboardAlerts.jsp].
javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.StackOverflowError

It is unclear how the server got itself in that state.... anyway restarting AdminServer and Managed Servers fixed the issue.... weird.
