 * It means your server cannot communicate with WooThemes.com for extension updates.
   You can ignore it if you have no use for it. D

 * Forgive me but that’s not really a good answer. I’m currently having the same
   issue, I have 4 wp installs on 3 different servers. 2 on one server and one each.
   Initially (yesterday), it was working fine on the server with multi instances
   but today that stopped working. Also, I thought it was a theme issue as I was
   fiddling with a new theme config (a couple of WP resets) and that’s when it happened.
   
   I’m not sure what exactly the reset did (either WordPress Reset or Reset WP) 
   but I’m almost certain it was what preceded my problem. I’ve tried a couple reinstalls
   with the deletion of everything, including plugin disables, removal. The issue
   here is that this also affected the theme i’m setting up, compare .htaccess and
   other dot files with other servers’ and nada, zip, zilch!
 * Any ideas?
