Hello !
I am trying to install pd 0.48-0 (vanilla) for a workshop on a bunch of computers running Windows 10 Professional
- yes, here begin the problems*
I tried to install and run both with and without Administrator privileges... the installer does its job fine but when everytime I try to run puredata, it shows the following error message :
can't read "filename": no such variable while executing "if {$filename ne "localhost" || [catch {set pd_socket [socket 127.0.0.1 $port]}]} { puts stderr "WARNING: connect to pd failed, retrying p..." (procedure "::pd_connect::to_pd" line 5) invoked from within "::pd_connect::to_pd $::port $::host" (procedure "main" line 18) invoked from within "main $::argc $::argv" (file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Pd\tcl\pd-gui.tcl" line 785)
(i had to type it manually so there might be some typos)
as far as I can understand, it looks like there's a problem around the local networking between pd and pdgui... but I don't know where to investigate further. No firewall involved, apparently...
If any has encountered similar error, or have any clue about where to search the problem...
that would be very helpful and appreciated
cheers,
