Getting "TF_E_CLIENT_IPC" error while trying to activate on Mac OSSolved

Hi Wyatt!

I was trying to activate the product on Mac OS and got the error TF_E_CLIENT_IPC (error code:20).

Got this error while executing the method TF_RequestLease.

What does this mean and how can I resolve this?

Thanks!

More information is needed (versions, please). https://wyday.com/limelm/help/faq/#useful-reports

All error codes are listed in TurboActivate.h and TurboFloat.h

/* MessageId: TF_E_CLIENT_IPC Message code (in Hex): 0x14 Message code (in Decimal): 20 MessageText: An error occurred while the TurboFloat client library was trying use interprocess communication facilities. These are needed to coordinate between multiple client-program instances running in the same operating-system session.*/#define TF_E_CLIENT_IPC ((HRESULT)0x00000014L)

Thanks for the reply.

The current versions are,TurboFloat server => 4.1.8.0libTurboFloat.dylib => 4.1.8

Mac OS => Mojave (10.14.4)Architecture => i386 x86_64

I understand that TurboFloat.h contains a lot of information about error codes.Can you tell me why I am getting this error?

Thanks!

Hi Wyatt,

I have set up the TurboFloat server on a Windows 10 PC on my home network.I am getting "TF_E_CLIENT_IPC" when I try to execute the TF_RequestLease method on my Mac.

Useful info:TurboFloat server => 4.1.8.0libTurboFloat.dylib => 4.1.8

Mac OS => Mojave (10.14.4)Architecture => i386 x86_64

Can you please guide me here?

We'll try to reproduce this.

Hi Wyatt,I just ran into the same issue "optitex" reported as well. Same dylib version (4.1.8.0) and almost the same Mac OS (10.14.5).

Running TurboFloat server on Win 10 Pro machine and requesting license from a different Win machine on same network works fine. Calling TF_RequestLease from the Mac is always returning the TF_E_CLIENT_IPC error.

It doesn't seem to make a difference whether TF_SaveServer is called before TF_RequestLease or not, so I suspect the issue is isolated to the Mac dylib and things are going wrong before it even attempts to communicate with the server.

Let me know if there is any additional info I can give you to help replicate the issue on your side or if there is anything you want me to try on mine. I'm not really sure what else to try to do to diagnose the issue.

Thanks,Gareth
