Errno 10061 : No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it ( client - server )

Question

I have a problem with these client and server codes, I keep getting the [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Answer 1

This could be because of proxy or firewall. If it's proxy, then you need to specify proxy setting at entry point of your code or project.

import os #for proxy

proxy = 'http://10.XX.XX.XX:8X8X' #your own proxy 'http://:@:'

os.environ['http_proxy'] = proxy 
os.environ['HTTP_PROXY'] = proxy
os.environ['https_proxy'] = proxy
os.environ['HTTPS_PROXY'] = proxy
#rest of code .....
