FAHControl keeps connecting

Post by kevi »

I have been having issues with FAHClient, the control buttons are all missing, and the status keep "connecting" "updating". I was working until I have made some changes in "slots".

I have tried running the CLI with "FAHClient --configure" to reconfigure the config.xml but still the same. I have also tried uninstall and reinstall many times.. still no joy

Welcome to the F@H Forum kevi,

Can you please post the log file? Ensure you include the first 100 lines which will inform us of what the system configuration is and what the client settings are. If you require guidance, please view this topic: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=26036

Assuming that you did an upgrade from V7.5X to V7.6.13 and has set a password, there's a known issue where V7.6.13 may not connect. The workaround is either to install the previous version, remove the password and install the latest version and then set a password. Alternatively, you can perform a fresh installation assuming that you have the username/passkey/team number stored safely in plain text.

Re: FAHControl keeps connecting

Post by bruce »

I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish with the --log parameter string. You're effectively putting FAH's files in CWD: /Users/kng2 which is Absolutely NOT a good place to put them.

Notice that your previous install did not retain any changes you made in a previous run.

08:56:56:ERROR:Exception: Could not bind socket to 0.0.0.0:36330: Address already in use

It looks like your trying to start a second copy of the Daemon FAHClient. Adding "sudo" doesn't change the fact that only one is allowed.

Do you find FAH"s files in /Library/Application Support/FAHClient?

If there is a FAHClient process already running, you can use the FAHClient executable from a CLI to send a command to it using 'FAHClient --send-command'. Use 'FAHClient --help' for all available commands.

Re: FAHControl keeps connecting

Post by kevi »

I have no idea why this is not running as it should be. I see the sockets 7396 and 36330 are prompting error and I have no clue where it should be changed. I would like to see if there's any proper way to remove the whole thing and reinstall FAH entirely with all its config/cache/settings.

Below is the config.xml

Code: Select all

<config>
  <!-- Folding Slots -->
  <slot id='0' type='CPU'/>
</config>
Below is the newer log.txt content.
