OSError: [Errno 49] Can't assign requested address - running simple server example

[tedunn1234]

Hi,

I've been struggling with getting the OSC server working so that I can receive messages from software sending them on another machine.

I have the example client code working and can see my message received and can see a message coming back in Protokol.

I've changed the IP and Port to a different port on the other machine in the simple server example code. I get the Errno49 noted above when I run it.

I I use the lighting console software on the other machine to trigger an out going OSC message, I can see that in Protokol.

I've spent several days on this trying on different computers with different ports, etc. I disabled the firewall on the second computer with no change.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hope this code formats correctly.

Sorry, the comment was my testing formatting the code. Accidentally closed the issue. Can't seem to delete the comment. But did get the code in the original post to format.

Hi! In the code, I'm using the IP 0.0.0.0, and in my iPad with TouchOSC, I have the IP 192.168.0.10. I didn't try to send information from my PC to the iPad, but from the iPad to the server, works fine.
