Error: line 1: Could not create command port: localhost:7001 (name is invalid). #13

Describe the bug When trying to open the port on Mac OS with Maya LT, I receive this error. Error: line 1: Could not create command port: localhost:7001 (name is invalid).

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: 1) Open the script editor: Run this command: commandPort -name "localhost:7001" -sourceType "mel" -echoOutput;

Desktop (please complete the following information):

I feel like if the port was already in use, I could find a workaround, but the name is invalid is weird for me.

Thanks in advance.

Hmm interesting.. have you tried if this works?

commandPort -name ":7001" -sourceType "mel" -echoOutput;
