Linux Supervisor (FC5) / Windows XP Worker problem

[ahujanen]

I'm a complete noob so I'm sure I'm missing the basics, but I've got a Linux Supervisor running and a Windows XP client. Everything seems to be operating on each end but the Worker log says:

ERROR: unable to establish tcp connection with 192.168.1.104 - unable to connect to host.

I've got the firewalls down on both systems. I'm running with all the install defaults, did I miss a port configuration some place?

Have a look at the Getting Started chapter in the Installation manual. There's a step-by-step to make sure your Supervisor is ready to accept jobs.

I only see 2 processes running and qbping does not return anything. The log file seems fairly innocuous:

Other suggestions?

You should check for and then disable the hplip service, or you can change your supervisor port number.  However if you do this, every single client and worker will also need to reflect these settings (example):

supervisor_port = 10001
supervisor_sub_port = 10002
supervisor_http_port = 10000

I would look at disabling the hplip first, and see if that is sufficient to resolve the problem.

That did the trick! Thanks for the help
