RaspTank - WinError 10061 target machine actively refused

1577702043

This is for a RaspTank recently built, everything installed per what directions I could find.  The RPi server.py does not autostart, I have to SSH into the Pi and "sudo python3 server.py".  I get the following:
Loading...
Setting up server...
192.xxx.xxx.xxx {actual Ip address listed}
waiting for connection...

Then I go to a PC with all the python software loaded on it.  I find the client.py file and run it, but I get the following at the end of a bunch of statements:

ConnectionRefusedError: [WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Help!?

Thanks

Please follow the video on setting up the software. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JPhDjejOYs

Solved.  It helps to use the RaspTank.py file that comes in the rasptank project zip.  Maybe I'm just a noob, but a suggestion would be to improve the instructions to explain this.

I get the same error cannot connect when using rasptank.py but if I run rasptankTest.py I get connected.
Have no idea why rasptank.py will not connect.  Get
ConnectionRefusedError: [WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Any suggestions.  I have went thru both software videos.

I finally just rebuilt to SD card and went thru the second setup video.  It seemed like when I ran rasptank setup.py it did more stuff than the first time I did it.
Anyway, it is not working.

This exception message says you're trying to connect to the same host ( 127.0.0.1 ), while you're stating that your server is running on a different host. This 127.0.0.1 represents a 'loopback' . It allows the computer to communicate with itself via network protocol .

Dns.GetHostEntry(IPAddress.Loopback).HostName returns the host name of your machine. When you pass a host name to TcpClient , it will resolve it to one or more IP addresses using Dns.GetHostAddresses(hostName) . This includes the public and local IP addresses of your machine (e.g. 192.168.12.10), but not 127.0.0.1 (loopback address). So your client is trying to connect to any of the non-loopback addresses of your machine, while your server is listening only on the loopback address . So, no connection can be established. The solution to this problem is that connect to the same end point your server is listening on.

Run server.py manually to see the error.
