Pete Dowson Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 330 Client socket() failed [Error=10047] Address family not supported by protocol family This is ALWAYS because the protocol you are asking WideFS to use is not installed. At least I've never yet seem such an error which wasn't because of this in the 6 years WideFS has been around! I just check the tcp/ip addrs., and the TcpIP=yes option in both PC's without results. May you should use the "UseTCPIP=Yes" parameter? There is no "TCPIP=Yes" parameter. Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katypluta Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 As Pete said, it looks like there is a typo with the UseTCPIP parameter, if that's it I believe that WideFS defaults to IPX so it will complain that it doesn't find the IPX protocol that is certainly not installed while in fact you want to use IP... Correct the ini file, that should work again, if not post your wideserver.ini and wideclient.ini in there and we'll try to help further :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest novgui Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Thank you for your help, here are the files: Wideserver.ini ; PLEASE SEE the documentation for parameter details ; ================================================== [Config] UseTCPIP=Yes Port=8002 ; ----------------------------------------------- [user] Log=Errors+ ; =============================================== Wideclient ini file: ; PLEASE SEE WideFS documentation for parameter details ; ===================================================== [Config] UseTCPIP=Yes ServerIPAddr=192.168.0.1 UseTCPIP=No Port=8002 Window=43,44,886,589 Visible=Yes ; ----------------------------------------------- [user] Log=Errors+ ; =============================================== I`ll wait your comments thank you again.

Pete Dowson Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Thank you for your help, here are the files:. Okay. In the Server INI you have: UseTCPIP=Yes but in the Client INI you have: UseTCPIP=Yes ServerIPAddr=192.168.0.1 UseTCPIP=No I expect the second copy of "UseTCPIP" will win over the first! Rather than use an IPAddr you may find it easier to use the ServerName, unless it is hard to spell correctly! Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Hi Pete: As soon as I read your post ran to modify the file (very good observation), I don`t know how I didn`t see it. :oops: To my surprise I still having the same "failed to start client", next is the log file: ********* WideClient.DLL Log [version 5.41] ********* Date (dmy): 16/03/03, Time 12:50:15.212: Client name is COMPAQ 130 Attempting to connect now 130 Client socket() failed [Error=10047] Address family not supported by protocol family 5828 Failed to start Client! 7941 Reception maximum achieved: 0 frames/sec, 0 bytes/sec 7941 Max receive buffer = 0, Max send depth = 0 7941 ********* Log file closed (Buffers: MaxUsed 0, Alloc 0 Freed 0 Refused 0) ********* as you can see practically is the same. Here are the client .ini file: ; PLEASE SEE WideFS documentation for parameter details ; ===================================================== [Config] UseTCPIP=Yes ServerIPAddr=192.168.0.1 Port=8002 Window=43,44,886,589 Visible=Yes ; ----------------------------------------------- [user] Log=Errors+ ; =============================================== even changing the server name (how is Gateway) still not working. Anyway thank you for your kindless and worrys about this. If you have another idea I can trie it, just tell me about it. Greetings. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 130 Client socket() failed [Error=10047] Address family not supported by protocol family This is 100% still going to be the fact that the UseTCPIP parameter is not set correctly. To start with, if you give the same of the Server, it will be logged and the IP address it finds will also be logged. It looks very much as if the copy of WideClient you are running is NOT reading the copy of the WideClient.ini file you are showing us --- there is simply no other explanation. Please be absolutely sure that the correct Wideclient.exe you are running and the WideClient.ini file you are editing, both reside in the same folder, and that you are running that EXE from that folder with it set as the current folder. Best that you use Windows Explorer and search for all things "WideClient.*" as it does really sound like you have things very mixed up there. We are running clean out of alternative explanations. A TCP/IP configured WideClient which has been given the Server name will have a log starting off like this (after the title): Date (dmy): 16/03/03, Time 19:10:21.625: Client name is NEWLEFT 329 Attempting to connect now 375 Trying TCP/IP host "OFFCENTRE" ... 375Okay, IP Address = 192.168.0.8 Even if it didn't get as far as the "Okay" here it would still list the server name you gave.

Guest novgui Posted March 17, 2003 Report Share Posted March 17, 2003 Great !!! Pete. That was !!!!. You are totally right. I just run it again from the c:\Mis documentos\Widefs folder and that was. Is runing as well as before in Windows 98. Thank you for your great help and worries about my ex-problem. I`ll continue enjoying your program. Greetings from Mexico City. Anytime yours from Mexico "novgui@prodigy.net.mx" :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
