DPLT: terminating due to failure in creation of AF_LOCAL/AF_UNIX socket

Hi, our new software, Maya2023,  network license require the use of version 11.18 LMTools to run.

We used an existing  VM, windows 2016, to run this 11.18 as the Windows 2012 will be EOL in 2023.

While we are setting 11.18, we are getting these set of error codes and wonder where we did wrong.  Can we ignore these messages?  will it affect our use of the licenses?

Hi @laukhk  ,

The creation of the new socket file will fail if the calling process does not has write permission on the directory where the file is being created. Similarly, for connecting to a stream socket, the connecting process should have write permission on the socket.

Can you check the permissions of the toolkit directories?

To add to the above ,  Diagnostic Functionality is not supported on Windows Server 2016 platform. If you upgrade to 11.18.1 you will see the message has changed from 

8:05:50 (demo) DPLT: terminating due to failure in creation of AF_LOCAL/AF_UNIX socket

8:05:50 (demo) DPLT: terminated

to

8:05:50 (demo) DPLT: Diagnostic Functionality is unable to access AF_UNIX socket

8:05:50 (demo) DPLT: Diagnostic Functionality is not supported on this platform

Hope this helps !!

Hi Jyadav,  Thanks for getting back promptly.  Didnt find much on the toolkit directories in the internet.  Would you be kind enough to direct us the path?  Do we set it to allow all read/write?

 

thanks

Hi @laukhk  ,

Since you are using Windows Server 2016 , let me reiterate that this functionality is not supported in it .
