I have a problem with these client and server codes, I keep getting the [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
I’m running the server on a virtual machine with Windows XP SP3 and the client on Windows 7 64bit, my python version is 2.7.3. What I want to know is how should I edit the code to use the client and server on different networks! Thanks!
server :
#!/usr/bin/python # This is server.py file import socket # Import socket module s = socket.socket() # Create a socket object host = '0.0.0.0' # Get local machine name port = 12345 # Reserve a port for your service. print 'Server started!' print 'Waiting for clients...' s.bind((host, port)) # Bind to the port s.listen(5) # Now wait for client connection. c, addr = s.accept() # Establish connection with client. print 'Got connection from', addr while True: msg = c.recv(1024) print addr, ' >> ', msg msg = raw_input('SERVER >> ') c.send(msg); #c.close() # Close the connection
client :
#!/usr/bin/python # This is client.py file import socket # Import socket module s = socket.socket() # Create a socket object host = socket.gethostname() # Get local machine name port = 12345 # Reserve a port for your service. print 'Connecting to ', host, port s.connect((host, port)) while True: msg = raw_input('CLIENT >> ') s.send(msg) msg = s.recv(1024) print 'SERVER >> ', msg #s.close # Close the socket when done
PS : code is from internet.
