poll failed [WinError 64] The specified network name is no longer available

[E-Bommel]

Describe the bug Twitch integration script is running into the error poll failed [WinError 64] The specified network name is no longer available when starting up

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. In OBS scripts console
2. Either on startup or reloding script
3. after the startup step done
4. See error

Additional context install of the setup.bat finished without issue besides in step 10 where it thows this line Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\Lib\encodings\cp1252.py", line 23, in decode return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x8f in position 55484: character maps to we manuall added the .py into the scripts then

script stack is as follows: [Unknown Script] connection stuff done [Unknown Script] startup done [Unknown Script] poll failed [WinError 64] The specified network name is no longer available [Unknown Script] Bot is ready for work, joining channels

RCON host is set to default with password just set to 123 in this case, interesting case here is that if I set the password to anything that's 6 digits or longer I get this error instead: poll unexpected exception: 8 is not a valid Type

the text source is updated with Vote #-1 so that seems to be working fine

Can you check if there is something else listening on port 27015?

Can you check if there is something else listening on port 27015?

there was indeed something listening on that port, after closing it I now get the error: poll failed [WinError 1225] The remote computer refused the network connection is there a way to change the port to something else to make sure that there's no interference from anything else?

is there a way to change the port to something else to make sure that there's no interference from anything else?

I think you can change it with -port <number> game command argument. Make sure to change the port in obs to the new port 127.0.0.1:<number>

[WinError 1225] The remote computer refused the network connection

Either the game didn't start the rcon server, or windows firewall (or something else) is blocking the connection

there's maybe a chance that this is happening because of the recent changes to twitch/yt integration that haven't yet made it into a release but are still... you know? so the solution here may just be to make a release since it's about time to

https://github.com/Pinsplash/halflife2chaos/compare/v0.2.11...b615b7b I don't see any breaking changes to integration so i think most of the issues were already there. (like the decoder exception and password length issue)

changed the port to one higher (27016) with the -port in the startup params and it works, thanks for the quick help, might be worth adding the port stuff to the installation guide :D

seems "[WinError 1225] The remote computer refused the network connection" is just a very stupid way of saying "there isn't anything listening" which means, starting the game and then refreshing the script makes it worky
