NatNetClient Cannot Connect in Motive 2.3.0

Post by srw367 »

I cannot connect to the NatNet server with the newest Motive:Tracker (2.3.0). When I use the python NatNetClient I get an error when connecting to the server:
"An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions"

on the line:
result.bind( (self.localIPAddress, port) )


Did the server port number change? I am using 1510 for the command server and 1511 for the data server.

This same code works without issue on 2.2.0.

Hi srw367,

We did some testing and did find that the Python Client is not working consistently with Motive 2.3.

We will be giving the Python Client some attention for an upcoming NatNet 4.0 release. In the meantime, the other samples seem to work with Motive 2.3 still.

If you are tied to the Python client, you may want to roll back to Motive 2.2 until the new NatNet version is released. I believe that should be available in the next several weeks.

Best,
Steven
