getting “Error contacting server” when licensing.init( “google” ) ???

I had just run my test app on my Android device and it was working fine re “licensing.init( “google” )”.  Then I rebuilt it with no changes just to make sure I was on the latest build.   I now get the “Error contacting server” each time now, as if in recent times there has been a bug introduced.   

Is anyone else getting this error?  

My test output & test code I used:

PS  Same with Version 2013.1215 (2013.9.25) also.

BTW - My licensed test response in Google Play is set to RESPOND_NORMALLY

update - working now  (doh)   not sure why it failed after I rebuilt but now works.  Perhaps server just happened to be down then, perhaps something to do with time to synch out latest version of app(?)…
