[PD] pd not starting on winXP
Hello. I have pd 0.39-3 extended installed on my machine, but it does not run. If I try to launch pd.exe I can see the process in the task manager, but nothing happens. If I try to launch on the command prompt pd -verbose -d 5 -stderr I get the following: input channels = 2, output channels = 2 set pd_whichapi 0 set pd_whichmidiapi 3 Pd version 0.39-3extended compiled 06:04:42 Oct 16 2007 port 5400 Waiting for connection request... and it stops there. I tried reinstalling with no luck. I also tried the 0.41 version but I always got the same. Any suggestions? I could not find anything on the web that seemed related.

Re: [PD] pd not starting on winXP
looks to me like a firewall issue. pd are two processes communicating which each other. try again with disabled firewall to find out if that's the cause and report back. m Am 2008-05-30 um 21:27 schrieb Enrico Costanza: Hello.

Try the latest version, which is about to be released: http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/Pd-0.40.3- extended-20080530-windowsxp-i386.exe http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/latest Or search puredata.info for the faq and search the faq for localhost, I think it was something related to that. .hc On May 30, 2008, at 1:27 PM, Enrico Costanza wrote: Hello.

Re: [PD] pd not starting on winXP
Thanks for the replies.
I tried to disable the firewall, but that did not make a difference.
I installed the latest version (0.40.3) but I still got the same:
pdtk_post {input channels = 2, output channels = 2}
set pd_whichapi 0
set pd_whichmidiapi 3
Pd version 0.40-3extended-20080530
compiled 05:58:20 May 30 2008
port 5400
Waiting for connection request...
I found this FAQ:
http://puredata.info/docs/faq
but I could not see anything related to localhost. The closest thing I
found was the loopback network interface. I tried to install that on my
windows machine, as described on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839013
but it did not change anything.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Enrico

sorry, i don't have any new ideas.
afaik, the problem regarding missing loopback device happened only on
ubuntu machines (hardy or gutsy, cannot recall exactly), whereas on
windows this kind of issues was related to restricted firewall settings
most of the times. afaik, a windows installation usually comes with a
loopback device already, there is no need to install it separately.
your problem strongly looks like a networking problem and i am quite
surprised, that disabling the firewall didn't help. just to make sure,
that not pd is the culprit, but connecting to localhost, you could try
the following:
pd is shipped with additional two tools: pdsend.exe and pdreceive.exe.
start pdreceive from a commandline:
pdreceive.exe 5400
and then try in another cmd to connect to it with pdsend.exe:
pdsend.exe 5400
if connection succeds, everything what you type into the pdsend cmd
should appear in the pdreceive cmd. don't forget to terminate each
message with a ';'.
if this fails, while the firewall is disabled, something else is needs
to be wrong with your network setup. someone with some deeper expertise
in networking on windows might help then.

Re: [PD] pd not starting on winXP
Solved.
Thanks for suggesting the pdsend/pdreceive test.
It made me realize that I had an extra firewall in place (I thought I
only had the windows firewall).
So opening it solved the problem.
Thanks!
