SAWS - 10047 error

[crishog]

I've been asked to talk about web services, so I thought I'd show off SAWS.

I followed the link to GitHub, got past the change to SAWS.Init (which now requires a zilde argument) and I get a 10047 Winsock error out of Conga

A quick web search throws up "uninstall and reinstall TCP/IP" as a fix. Given this PC runs DFS quite happily I'm a wee bit reluctant to do that.

I tried the full workspace from the samples page on the website. I updated the Conga DRC namespace (as it is still using v21 not v25) but I still get the 10047 error.

I've tried switching off the firewall in case that was interfering, but no joy.

Is there anything obvious I'm doing wrong? Or do I really need to reinstall TCP/IP when every other use of it (or I wouldn't be writing this message on the forum) and Conga is working?

After flicking through my notes I now remember Bjørn telling me that usually this was due to an older version of conga not handling an IPv6 call when no IpV6 was available (t should drop back to IPv4 gracefully, which conga 25 does) so why am I getting it with SAWS I wonder?

[crishog]

Odd. the call to DRC.srv uses '' as the address

If I put localhost then it works.

I assume an empty string is meant to default to localhost?

Perhaps my localhosts file (or whatever it is called in this ancient version of Windows on this machine)does not contain an entry to supply conga with a default?

Hi Chris,

The Conga documentation for DRC.Srv says about Address:

If empty, server will listen on all addresses that the machine has.
