AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'name'

Probably a noob error but I get an exception with whatever invocation parameters

wsdd - Web Service Discovery Daemon, v0.7.0 on FreeNAS 11.1-STABLE FreeBSD 11.1-STABLE

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./wsdd", line 1948, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "./wsdd", line 1905, in main
    nm = create_address_monitor(platform.system(), aio_loop)

    return self._name == other.name
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'name'

Any help appreciated.

Maybe unrelated but could please check the Python version in use? FreeNAS/BSD 11.1 appears to be a little dated. You need at least Python 3.7 and maybe the routing socket stuff does not work on that FreeBSD version as well.

It's Python 3.6.3.

It's Python 3.6.3.

That's too old. If the problem occurs with a more recent version (at least 3.7, as said) you may open the issue again.
