error maya 2014

I keep receiving this error when trying to run it for maya 2014 on windows.

Failed to communicate with Maya (127.0.0.1:7002)): [WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Can you verify that you can telnet into your Maya's commandPort, from outside of Sublime? It may not specifically be related to MayaSublime.

How can I test that exactly?

Have you managed to confirm if you have a valid commandPort open in Maya?

Try this from the Script Editor

import maya.cmds as cmds
cmds.commandPort(name=":7002", close=True)

cmds.commandPort(name=":7002", sourceType="python")

I get this as an error when running that exact code:

cmds.commandPort(name=":7002", sourceType="python")

Error: RuntimeError: file line 2: Command port ':7002'

does not exist. #

That means you didn't open a commandPort in Maya so the plugin was never able to connect. Check out the readme for the plugin. You will want to add the second line (and the import statement) to your userSetup.py so that it always opens your preferred port on launch of Maya

I put ....

import maya.cmds as cmds

# if it was already open under another configuration cmds.commandPort(name=":7002", close=True)

# now open a new port cmds.commandPort(name=":7002", sourceType="python")

# or open some random MEL port (make sure you change it to this port in your config file) cmds.commandPort(name=":10000", sourceType="mel")

in the userSetup.py and I get this error upon launching of maya.

Failed to execute userSetup.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/HP/Documents/maya/2014-x64/scripts\userSetup.py", line 4, in cmds.commandPort(name=":7002", close=True) RuntimeError: Command port ':7002' does not exist.

Correct. It can't close the port that wasn't already opened. So per our offline conversation, putting this in your userSetup.py fixed your issue:

import maya.cmds as cmds
cmds.commandPort(name=":7002", sourceType="python")
cmds.commandPort(name=":10000", sourceType="mel")
