I find out the reason of this error. Must start server before client. if no server running, the client will meet ConnectionRefusedError. I made a low level mistake. Close this issue, please. thank you.

under win7 64bit, have the same error(ConnectionRefusedError).

Why was this issue closed? I couldn’t find what solution was provided… !? How and where should I have started running before making the call?
