OSVR HDK 1.4 cannot start STEAM VR - error 108 about steamvr-osvr HOT 13 OPEN

It looks like OSVR is having trouble talking to the IR tracking camera (directx_camera_server: Can't create video enumerator (no cameras?)). When you run the OSVR server, does the light on the camera turn green? If not, you might double-check the USB cable going to the camera.

The Winsock error is a little suspicious, too:

vrpn: Connection request received from 127.0.0.1: 127.0.0.1 60064
vrpn_Endpoint::connect_tcp_to: Could not connect to machine 127.0.0.1 port 60064
Winsock error: 10061

While osvr_print_tree got the tree data okay, I'm concerned there may be some communication problem with the OSVR server.

Winsock error 10061 means the connection was refused:

Connection refused. No connection could be made because the target computer actively refused it. This usually results from trying to connect to a service that is inactive on the foreign host—that is, one with no server application running.

from steamvr-osvr.

The vrserver.txt log file reports: OSVRTrackedHMD::Activate(): Context startup timed out after 5 ms! A common cause of this error is if SteamVR can't communicate with osvr_server. Are you starting the OSVR server before starting SteamVR?

@godbyk hi,

yes I always start the osvr server before starting the application. To start OSVR server I use OSVR Central -> OSVR server

from steamvr-osvr.

While the OSVR server is running, can you run osvr_print_tree.exe in a terminal and post the output?

edit: changed the print_tree.log to print_tree.txt because the github

from steamvr-osvr.

It looks like either the server isn't actually running or osvr_print_tree and SteamVR are unable to connect to it for some reason (e.g., a firewall).

Can you run the OSVR server from a terminal as well? It will print out a log showing any errors it encounters.

Also with same osvr_server instance running I'm able to play non steamvr games or use unity to do stuff with osvr

from steamvr-osvr.

If you leave osvr_server.exe running on one terminal and try running osvr_print_tree.exe in another terminal, does it print out more information then? Is that works, try running SteamVR again while the osvr_server.exe terminal is still running.

This is what I get to osvr_server right after the osvr_print_tree.exe is finished

Can't see this comment which I received from email:

What does your current steamvr.vrsettings config file look like? You will find config dir in steam install root directory.

The instructions said nothing about the manifest so I haven't touched it.

@godbyk sorry for late response. Currently I don't have the IR camera added in setup. Is it necessary to have? I have it in the box. Never used it.
