failed to bind lan-mouse socket
My platform is Windows 10.
I initially used lan-mouse successfully.
However, after unplugging a USB device from another computer (it might have been a coincidence, not necessarily the cause), my computer froze.
So I restarted it (during the restart, an automatic update was installed, but it remained Windows 10).
After rebooting, when I started lan-mouse, it showed a warning.
First, it couldn’t find config.toml.
I manually created a config.toml with the following content:
port = 4243
auto_start = true
But there is still one error:
failed to bind lan-mouse socket
and
(lan-mouse.exe:4592): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 17:31:00.224: win32 session dbus binary not found
(lan-mouse.exe:4592): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: 17:31:00.834: g_settings_schema_source_lookup: assertion 'source != NULL' failed
Did you fix this issue? On Windows, LanMouse uses TCP port 5252 to communicate between the frontend (the GTK Window) and the service, because windows does not have unix sockets. This sounds like some other service is running on that port.
To find out, which application might be running on that port, you can use
Get-Process -Id (Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 5252).OwningProcess
In my case this is showing lan-mouse:
NPM(K) PM(M) WS(M) CPU(s) Id SI ProcessName
