Socket Error: Connection Refused

Dear c.l.p,

I have recently been doing the tutorial of Python and everything is
well, i'm upto the pass section. Anyway, when I try to launch idle now
I get the error message: Socket Error: Connection Refused. I do not
have a firewall, so I don't know what is going on. Also, this comes up
after it:

IDLE's subprocess didn't make the connection. Either IDLE can't start a
subprocess or personal firewall software is blocking the connection.

[OK]
Any help would be appreciate.

If it's not your personal firewall, then perhaps the machine you
are trying to connect to is refusing the call. Are you sure it's
listening on the port that you are trying to connect to?

Hi, I'm not sure this is the proper forum but I try nevertheless. The problem I'am facing is that the socket library always fail to connect to an URL. The net effect is that I can not use setuptools. I'm using Python2.4 on a windows XPPRO Sp2 machine. The firewall is disabled. There is no NLTM proxy. I connect to the internet through a NAT server (and it works). Other than with easy_install I tried to connect to a number of external urls...

Hello. I'm writing an application that manages sockets and has a message protocol. I connect to another machine and I have to send and receive certain messages. I need the possibility to restart the communication. I tried with a simple socket.close method and trying to connect again as the first time, but the connection is refused.

Hello everyone here. This is my first post in this newsgroup, I hope I won't be to much off-topic. Feel free to redirect me to any better group. I am getting strange timing issues when failing to asynchronously connect sockets on closed or filtered ports, but I'm quite unsure if this is a PHP issue or my misunderstanding, as it seems that socket streams only wrap around <sys/socket.h>.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
