Error 10054 when attempting python api example

[FuzzkingCool]

Hi,

I have installed a local server for testing the python api, but am running into a problem.

I am testing the CM LREP code found at the top of the page at:

https://www.plasticscm.com/documentation/restapi/plastic-scm-version-control-rest-api-guide.shtml#Pythonexample

This always fails with:

('Connection aborted.', error(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host'))

I am:

• not using ssl
• windows firewall is totally disabled
• localhost is enabled in c:/windows/system32/etc/hosts file
• server address is the default localhost:8087
• I have tried 127.0.0.1:8087 with the same result
• I have run: cm lrep localhost:8087 and get a valid response:
  default@localhost:8087
  repo_zero@localhost:8087
• If i run: cm lrep localhost:8087/api/v1/repos I get the following response:
  default@localhost:8087/api/v1/repos
  repo_zero@localhost:8087/api/v1/repos
   

I am totally stumped here... any clues would be deeply appreciated!

Ok, in the tradition of all my posts on forums recently, I answer my own questions, because I missed something in my reading of documentation.

I needed to start the plasticapi first, and the api itself also runs by default on port 9090.
