Windows installation problem. Failed to connect to tidal server. Try specifying a different port... #286

Closed bhishp closed 6 years ago

bhishp commented 6 years ago

Hi, I am having a problem getting tidal to work after following the online installation instructions listed here: https://tidalcycles.org/getting_started.html#windows.

To confirm, I have:

The error occurs when I Boot TodalCycles. The GHCi interpreter window will show and say,

GHCi, version 8.2.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help 
Prelude> Prelude> tidal> tidal>

Then, after a few seconds it will print out the error pasted below.

I have noticed that SuperCollider starts with the following message SuperDirt: listening to Tidal on port 57120, so I have tried setting a windows ENV variable as TIDAL_TEMPO_PORT=57120 and relaunching Atom + Tidal but the error persists.

Environment Info Windows 10 Version 1709 (OS Build 16299.302) SuperCollider 3.9.1 tidalcycles 0.12.1 Atom 1.25.0 GHC 8.2.2

Any help appreciated, thanks

(sorry, no line breaks in errors)

Hi @bhishp. Sorry for this confusing error message. It's failing to connect to tidal's internal clock server, not supercollider. Changing TIDAL_TEMPO_PORT won't help, I think. My guess is that you have a firewall issue. Try turning off your firewall temporarily to see if it works then.

bhishp commented 6 years ago

Ah yeah, it's actually my anti-virus/malware software, EMSISOFT. I disable it and works a charm, I'll look into how I edit the setting for Atom/Tidal.

Just for note, I am just using standard windows firewall and didn't think that EMSISOFT would block connections but it seems it does.

Thanks for your quick response!

Hi. I'm using macOS. I'm having problem that is same this issue. I installed from tidal-bootstrap, but tidalcycles couldn't connect SuperCollider server. Firewall is not turned on. Atom showed error message that is same as this issue.

SuperCollider Server was booting and listening to Tidal on port 57120.

SuperDirt: listening to Tidal on port 57120

Any help appreciated, thanks

↑This problem was resolved. According to tidalcycles installation manual (https://tidalcycles.org/getting_started.html), tidal-bootstrap can work with haskell-platform 8.2.1 version only. But I have installed v8.4.3. It can work by re-installing v8.2.1. Thanks.
