I am not sure of your situation: are you using FoxTrot locally? In this case, press the command and option keys while launching FoxTrot, and check the "Force-quit agents, and send report" checkbox. This should fix the issue, in addition to sending us a report. If this does not, please restart your Mac.
Or are you trying to connect to a FoxTrot Server running on your own machine? Did you try to connect to the server "LocalHost", with two capital letters? In this case, either the server is not running, or you did not specify a fixed port in FoxTrot Search Server.app (or you set a port different than 50000, and you omitted to specify the port in the connect dialog, e.g. localhost:12345). Anyway, a server running on your own machine, or on your local network, should be discovered by Bonjour and should appear automatically in the left pane; no need to try to connect to localhost.
Additionally, if for some reason you want to connect to a local server without using Bonjour, type localhost in lowercase in the connect dialog; using uppercase should not prevent resolving the address, but the certificate won't be trusted.
